Thank you to LeapFrog for providing me with a sample to review. All opinions are my own.
Ever since my daughter was given her first LeapFrog LeapPad (the original) it’s been her go-to toy. She loves the games and having a tablet of her own while I love that LeapFrog has perfected the art of learning filled play through their apps and games. I know that by her playing the Disney Prinesses Story Book cartridge she has she’s not only engaging with her favorite characters, she’s learning her letters, cause and effect and early math skills. My daughter loves her LeapPad, so much that it’s gotten a bit “worn” over the years and it could certainly use an upgrade. Thankfully LeapFrog recently released the latest in the LeapPad family, the LeapFrogLeapPad3!
Geared towards kids 3-9, the LeapFrog LeapPad3 is a Wi-Fi enabled, kid-tough tablet that allows children to learn through play using hundreds of educator-approved apps, videos, games and more. The tablet offers loads of great features including:
- Fast, powerful processor and sleek new design
- Works with 1,000+ educator-approved games & apps
- Kid-safe web access to age-appropriate experiences
- Ability to personalize learning to every child
- Built kid-tough and drop tested for worry-free fun
- Rechargeable lithium ion battery
- Can share your child’s progress with you
- Touch screen
- Includes 10 apps out of the box
- Can be plugged into an outlet or run off of built in lithium ion rechargeable batteries
- Shatterproof 5″ touch screen
Just like her original LeapPad, my daughter hasn’t been able to put the new LeapPad3 down! The tablet was easy to set up and can sync with our previosusly purchased apps and games by plugging it into my computer. We’ve loved discovering all the fun new games available such as The Octonauts and Get Ready For Kindergarten. I think my favorite feature is the durability of the LeapPad3. Since it’s geared towards an age group that tends to just toss things around, it’s nice knowing the tablet can take a bit of a beating.
As a parent I’d much rather give a gift or spend money on a product that will help further my child’s mind and spark imagination. The new LeapFrog LeapPad3 certainly does a wonderful job of doing both!
Be sure to grab a LeapFrog LeapPad3 for your child this holiday season!
