My five year old daughter loves Leapfrog products, so I wasn't amazed when she got caught up in this toy. She knew all of her letters prior to this, but now she's actually spelling words and thinking about how other words are spelled. She likes the function above the music one, where you can create your own words the best. I would recommend this to every parent I know! Leap Frog has done it again!

On other parent-interesting notes, like most Leap Frog products, this is sturdy, durable, great sound quality that's adjustable. The carry handle fits her hand perfectly.

Leap Frog has really improved the sound quality of their toys. I purchased this for my three year old son after he picked it off the store shelf and started playing with it. He has other things like this, but they all seem to have built in distractions. He seems to really enjoys doing the academic activites this toy provides. The only "extra" button to press it a repeat button, so it asks the question again instead of playing an annoying song. This does have a music setting and like all other Leap toys, the songs are the same for each letter...In this case, the other six activities caught his attention before the music.

I bought this for my son's 3rd birthday. He is now almost 3 1/2 and still loves it. He can recognize all of the letters and knows most of the sounds that go with the letters. This is a great toy to take on trips in the car because there are so many things to do with it~identify letters, sounds, play games, spell words, and music. Leap Frog is a brand that we have never gone wrong with!
