new for us friday: leapfrog LeapPad (& giveaway!)
We are indeed a LeapFrog family.
(And that’s not really New-For-Us-Friday news, I know. . . )
We are a LeapFrog family because waaaaay back when, the day the LeapFrog Tags walked into our lives as the first electronic ‘toy’ we invited into our family, we were hooked. And each year, with each new release, the LeapFrog products just keep getting better and better.
We have had the fantabulous new-for-us opportunity to try the LeapFrog LeapPad for the last few months, and it’s seriously awesome. Seriously. Awesome.
And I am so totally over the moon that I have a LeapPad AND three cartridge games to give away to one lucky teach mama reader. Woot!
This New For Us Friday, we’re sharing the LeapPad love. . .
Here’s the skinny:
- LeapFrog LeapPad: Essentially, we absolutely love this device. We have tried many of the LeapFrog products–Tag, Tag Jr., Explorer, and Explorer Camera–so I was skeptical that the LeapPad coolness would surpass these, but it does.
Maddy works on her story in Story Studio. . .
. . . which includes pictures, audio, video, and her own creative ideas!
Don’t get me wrong–as much as Maddy, Owen, and Cora love the LeapPad, they still do reach for the Explorer and the Explorer Camera, and Cora often reaches for the Tag Reader. And at this point, I’m thankful we have them all. Sharing is getting a wee bit easier.
But what I really love is that the LeapPad is like having a hundred devices in one–with the range of games, apps, and stories they can use with it–on top of the sleek design and tablet-like appearance. And the fact that kids can use the device with or without a stylus makes it seem even more awesome to them, I think–kind of like my coveted smartphone–but bigger.
Believe it or not, with the LeapPad, which comes equipped with a built-in camera, video recorder, microphone, and Story Studio–All About Me, Art Studio, and Pet Pad,
- kids can record 120 minutes of video;
- kids can take 30,000 pictures (which equals one picture a day for 82 years!);
- kids can make 1,548,288 combinations of pets;
- kids can create 15,000 pieces of art;
- kids can create 27,216 story combinations using Story Studio!
Incredible!
Leapster Explorer games are compatible with LeapPad–woo-hoo!
Every single one of the Leapster Explorer games and apps can be used with the LeapPad. Thank goodness, right? We had the opportunity to try:
- LeapSchool — So fun. Focus is on reading and spelling and kids help LeapSchool friends create the coolest yearbook ever.
- PixarPals — Wall-E, Dory & Nemo, Woody & Buzz, and more are part of the fun as kids unlock science and logic puzzles, mini-games, and more, all with an astronomy, ocean science, logic, and reasoning focus.
- PetPals2 — Kids LOVE it and they loved PetPals 1. Focuses on teaching numbers, counting, addition, subtraction, and emotions, and kids get to create, name, and care for teeny, tiny pets.
But there are many, many more incredible cartridge games for the device as well as apps and interactive books that can be purchased and downloaded from the LeapFrog site. There’s something for everyone.
Maddy works on creating artwork–around her face.
Overall, we especially appreciate and love the following about the LeapFrog LeapPad:
- the quality — this device is sturdy, durable, and kid-friendly;
- the size of the screen, the size, 5″– perfect for kids ages 4-9;
- that it’s slim and sleek–and kids agree that it looks cool;
- the fact that three people can register on one device–and their settings, preferences, games, and scores are saved and available whenever they play;
- that the LeapFrog Leapster Explorer games are compatible!!;
- that it’s got a photo/ video camera built in–and the memory holds TONS of photos/ videos;
- that there’s a story creator (FUN!) where kids can use photos and videos they take and then incorporate into the story;
- that it includes games and books–all interactive, engaging, and exciting, and each with a learning focus;
- that the sounds and noise are not annoying to adults (at least to me, and that’s saying a lot);
- the graphics are awesome, cutting-edge, sharp, and colorful;
- that parents can monitor their children’s progress if they want to–if they don’t want to, and they don’t need to;
- that like all LeapFrog products, it’s designed with kids and parents in mind–the games are fun, engaging, and educationally focused without being boring, and parents can track their children’s learning on the LeapFrog site in seconds.
We wish:
- that it was catered a bit more toward left-handed children the stylus is connected on the right; HOWEVER it can be removed–AND kids can use their finger if they want. Knowing our kids, if the stylus is not tied on, it’ll be gone before we know it.
- that the battery compartment was easier to open–(I could not for the life of me figure it out, but my sister was able to open it on the first try);
- that I had one of these for each of my kiddos–they’re that cool, and having three might avoid some arguments.

fyi: We have had the opportunity to try the LeapFrog LeapPad for the last month, as I am part of the LeapFrog Review Program. All of the opinions here are my own, influenced only by the feedback of my three kids (7, 6, and 4 yrs) and my own experience as an educator and parent. This is an unsponsored post, but my family was given the LeapPad and several cartridge games and apps to review. LeapFrog will provide the LeapPad and cartridge games to the winner.
My 4 year old would use this. He has the explorer, which we got him to help with fine motor skills, anything he learns about letters and numbers is gravy. I’m sure he would love the Leap pad.

My 6 year old daughter would LOVE this! She is having a little trouble in school and we do I lot of drilling at home. Maybe this would make it more fun for her to learn!! We love Leap Pad products in my house, we just generally get hand me downs. But we love them all the same!!! Thanks!

My 50 kindergarteners would be taking turns with the leap pad… and my son too from time to time when he visits my classroom. It will be well-loved!
15/10/2011
We would love to learn and explore with the LeapPad. One of my daughters would use it. We will have to purchase another for her twin sister!!! Probably no sharing in this case!
Thanks for the opportunity.

My 5 and 2.5-yr-old boys would fight over/love to play with the LeapPad. My oldest is big into writing stories, so the Story Studio sounds like it would be a hit.
15/10/2011
I just pinned the Days of the Week learning activity with the vitamin boxes. I love how you use simple, every day things, but make a conscious effort to turn them into meaningful teachable moments!
15/10/2011
My soon-to-be 5-year-old son would love this. Such a nice alternative to Angry Birds!
16/10/2011
I shared this post with a friend–my sister. Her kids would love one too.
16/10/2011
My two girls would fight over, uh, play on this quite often. It’s about time to upgrade from our Leapsters.
16/10/2011
Wow! What a great giveaway! I would LOVE to win this for my three kids – 4yrs, and 3yr old twins. They really enjoy all things LeapFrog, I’m sure this would be no different.
16/10/2011
I pinned it to my Ideas for Kids board!

I Homeschool Preschool my 4 year old grandson and he is a non -traditional learner, We aren’t able to use work sheets and hands on materials. But I believe this leap pad would really help him. I Tweeted- Postal900. I shared on Facebook.

My son is turing five and November. He would be over the moon if he had this game. He had the Leapster Explorer and I am thrilled that they use the same games. This would be so much more educational than the DS systems his friends are getting!
16/10/2011
I’m sure my young granddaughters would use this LeapPad a lot.
16/10/2011
With 3 kids under 5 we have yet to bring ‘electronics’ into the house. This certainly would be worth investigating since you have such rave reveiws of the Leap Pad!
16/10/2011
Mu six year old would use this in all of the hundreds of ways in can be used! He loves exploring technology and learning!!
16/10/2011

16/10/2011
My 9 year old actually just asked me about this! I thought she might be a little old for it but I’d love to check it out! My 2 year old loves her hand-me-down Leapfrog Leapster so I know he’ll love love this, too!
Thanks, Amy : )
16/10/2011
This would be fabulous for my granddaughter who travels long distances between her parents’ houses several times a year….Something that has lots of options to help cover that 10 hour drive!

16/10/2011
Okay, I just realized that it sounded like I said my 2 year old (who’s a boy) loves “her” leapster but I meant it to be that he loves his older sister’s leapster! haha.
16/10/2011
Would you believe I’ve never heard of these? Yes, I’m a sheltered (non-electronic) Momma. Still, I know my 4 and 6 year olds would love it, and I bet my 12 year old would even get in on some of the fun
16/10/2011
I would love to introduce DD to the Leappad!
16/10/2011
This would be for my son. I have loved sharing the Leapfrog products with him and love how they have grown as he has. He loves his Explorer, but this sounds even more interactive and has the great camera!

I have three little ones between the ages of four and eight. We have multiple Leap Frog toys…. MyFirst Computer, Tag Readers, and Leapsters just to name a few. They would all love this! (And thanks for the tip on the stylus location and being able to remove it and use your finger…. One of my three munchkins is a leftie)
16/10/2011
I like you on fb, subscribe to you and also pinned this post. I also want to know how to be a part of the review programs you are in
16/10/2011
This is already on my Hanukkah list for Michael. I love it for the extra help with reading!
16/10/2011
My Daughter who is 5 would use this…. and then eventually my 3 year old son would as well. I really wanted to get her one of these for Christmas. I am a stay-at-home-mom and I love to buy them new toys, especially educational toys (the husband doesn’t always agree with my spending) … helps keep them busy as I can only entertain so much. I love LeapFrog products and this would be a great addition to our collection, however, my husband doesn’t agree and feels that spending $100+ on a gadget for a 5 year old is insane! Looks like I won’t win on this one with him…

I have a tech savvy 3 year old who loves playing on my phone & I just know she would get hours and hours of enjoyment from the LeapPad. I was wondering about the stylus and left handers and you’re the first review that’s mentioned this. Thanks for the informative review and the chance to win!

This would be for my youngest for Christmas but I am certain the other kids would aslo enjoy it!
16/10/2011
This is fantastic. Thanks for the review. I just saw them in one of the newspaper ads and was wondering about them. My 3yo would love this. She wants to learn everything her big sisters are. She loves working on the computer and seeing what she can make it do on all the different learning games we have. She carries a book with her whenever we leave the house (just like mom). She also has her own backpack with all of her workbooks in for when we do school at home. I think this would be fantastic for her. If we don’t win one, I’m putting it on her Christmas wish list.
16/10/2011
My daughter has been asking me for one of these! She would love to win it!

I think my boys (6 and 2) would share this. I think it is really cool but I am not sure if the 6 year old would out grow it and if the 2 year old would detroy it!
16/10/2011
would LOVE a Leapfrog LeapPad for my two girls to share… 3 3/4 and 5 1/2 years old:)
16/10/2011

16/10/2011

I have a little guy who will be turning 3 in a couple of weeks. This would be perfect as a holiday gift for him. The camera part is the one he’d use the most – he loves taking pictures! But, I know that my 13 y.o. son will also enjoy using it. He never had anything like this and just loves playing with electronic toys like this. In fact, I’m pretty sure that if I win, he’ll be the one showing little guy how to use it!

i have a 6 yr old who loves Leapster, and the whole Leap family. I have a 5 yr old who does well and my 20 mth old will eventually use all the electronics his older sibilings have at this point. I would be extremely grateful to be given the opportunity to win this for my kids.
16/10/2011
I have two daughters 5 and 4 and they would love this. We have used the leappad book system from way back, and leapsters and tags and tag jr. I love how leap is moving with today’s technology.

jack has been begging us for a nintendo ds ever since bridget got one for christmas (she hardly ever uses it, i should say! she prefers her leapster!) so, i guess this would be a good stepping stone for him!
17/10/2011
It would be the best Christmas gift ever for my daughter, and perfect to keep her busy on a long flight to India

WOW! What a great giveaway- My older son is already figuring out how to use my phone but would love something like this as there are no ads and it is entirely kid friendly. Would be fantastic for our 9 hour plane ride to Australia we do a couple of times a year as the busy bags I have made will only keep them busy an hour or two tops. I don`t live in the US but a friend lives on army base here and I have other friends in US so could use their shipping addresses if needed. Please feel free to delete my comment though if this does not qualify me.

My 22-month-old son would love this! Every night we sit down in front of my laptop before he goes to bed to watch “A-B-C” and Beatles videos; it’s a ritual we’ve had for almost a year. He’s really learned a lot from Youtube videos and I feel like he’s ready to start trying new things on his own, since he’s also enamored with smaller electronics!

Both my 5 yr old and nearly 4 yr old would love using this. They love using Nana’s iPad when the are allowed (not often) and beg for more DS time (less than educational). I’ve tossed around the idea of getting something like this, so winning one would be perfect.

This would be so great for my (almost) 4 year old and 5 year old. They love our other LeapFrog products too.
05/11/2011
The LeapFrogPad is our children’s learning tool for their generation. What a Great start on new technology preparing them for their future. My three year old grandchild would have a learning advantage if I won this pad. Look out Jetson’s here we come!

Would LOVE to win this for my four year old daughter. My older daughter relied on LeapFrog products heavily during her early years, as she struggled with a language disorder (phonological processing disorder) – we found so many of their products/games emphasized phonics (the Leap Tag in particular) that it truly helped her with her at-home therapy. Now my younger daughter is showing signs of a similar delay and I would LOVE for her to have a Leap Pad and the same Leap Frog advantage my older daughter had. Great products!

My son Caleb (5 years old) would love this. Caleb is a smart boy who has me as his preschool teachers as well as Mommy. Sometimes I think technology can really help kids learn and practice new concepts. Winning this LeapFrog LeapPad would allow Caleb to practice his learning independently, or without listening to me
His little brother Connor (2 years old) would enjoy taking turns also. As a previous 1st grade teacher I know how effective LeapFrog is and am so interested as to how you are part of the review team.
I shared this contest and your site with all 9 of my preschool parents and on Facebook.
Thanks for the chance,

WOW this would be awesome. We have six children so holiday time gets a little difficult. I have 3 yr old twins and they would absolutely love this. Our neighbors child has one and whenever we go to visit they love playing with it. Our twins were premie so they have some learning delays, but after watching one of the leap videos that has to do with letters they we repeating everything it said which was great to hear. This would be a great learning tools for them as they have been in speech and physical (for fine motor skills) therapy since birth. Using the stylus would help with the fine motor skills. Our 6 yr old has the explorer and they love to watch her play. This would be greatly appreciated by my family. Thanks for this wonderful opportunity and I wish everyone the best of luck.

I agree with his idea that kids don’t need to sit in front of the screen all the time especially in the car when it’s a great opportunity to converse with them…however, as a preschool teacher, I’m trying to get him to see the technology world our children are growing up in! Several schools around us have ipads in the rooms & netbooks for every student. I’d like to allow our kiddos to have the same technology opps that so many of his other classmates already have. (Plus, if I win it, how could the hubby say no, right!

My almost 3-year-old daughter will use this. We’re expecting a new baby, and it will be premature due to some complications. So we could be spending some time in the NICU and then indoors for quite a while. It will be good for my daughter to have something fun to play with when we can’t get out and about quite as often.

My kids ages 2, 5, and 8 are likely to all want a turn! I like that it can hold different settings for each and that it’s so durable. It’ll really motivate our budding storytellers/photographers/readers. We’ve been waiting for something like this for kids!
15/11/2011
My 8 year old has already requested the Leappad for Christmas, it is the only thing she wants. I would love it for her because she is the youngest of 4 children and my time is stretched thin during homework hours, especially with my 10 year old having Aspergers. I think the Leappad would be an excellent tool to have to keep my daughter interested in learning.

I would love, love, love to have this for my son! I was so thankful for your review of the Leap Pad because I have had my eye on this for a few weeks now. I have been reading about the Leap Pad on the Leapfrog website, but I couldn’t find all of the info I needed. I found it on your website for sure!! Thank you so much for taking the time to write this in depth review. I know now that I definitely want to get his for my son. I was hoping to be able to get one for Christmas. I know he would love it! I look forward to working with him on letters, reading and math skills, taking pictures and playing games, of course. And I look forward to seeing how quickly he can learn to navigate the programs on his own. I know the possibilities of learning with this product are endless! Please choose me! And by the way, my son’s name is Owen

If we were lucky enough to win, my boy/girl twins (who will be 3 in December) would share it. We wanted to buy one for them but we found out my husband’s place of employment is closing its doors, so we are trying to keep expenses in check at this time.

Would love to leave a Leap Pad under the Christmas tree this year for my 4 and a half year old “C” Might be able to get my phone back from her if she had her own “screen” to play with! ; )
Fondly,

My 7 yr old loves my iPad which provides us with great applications for 1st grade but what I have not been able to do is protect the other apps that’s I have that r not age appropriate plus everyone knows how sensitive it also is… I have also impressed how technology lights up their face not only for my 7 year old but for my 9 month old he loves the apps that I have for him… They would both have something to share even w their big age gap what better than the leapfrog

would love to win one for my son age 5!

oh, my son evan would loooooooooove this! he is 4.5… although i’m sure my almost 2 year old would find a way to enjoy it, too!

My son is going to be five in February and this would be an amazing present from Santa this year. We have two Tag readers for him and he loves them. They are our go-to supplies for road trips. I think that would change if we had a leappad.

Love it! We also love the Leap Frog Tags. I have two boys who share just about anything (4 & 8); I imagine they will LOVE this too! Thank you!
18/11/2011
My 4 year old son would love this! All the reviews have been excellent!
18/11/2011
This would be a joint present for my 5 and 7 year old… and my husband and I, too, since we don’t have a smart phone/tablet device.
18/11/2011
Thanks for this fabulous giveaway. My daughter would adore this. We do not have any Leapfrog items, but she adores using them at her friend’s house. This would be an amazing addition to our playroom.
18/11/2011
This would be a Christmas gift for Aidan. HE LOVES taking pictures. This tablet with all its functionality is so great and would be awesome for him to learn AND play!
Thanks!

Would love to have one for my 2 year old little man. I am sure my other two older kids would love to use it too!

My daughter Chezney who is in 1st grade would use it. She has struggled through school, especially with reading. We had to repeat Kindergarten which has given her a few self esteem issues, but we take things one day at a time and hoping that reading will come easier with time. I think this product would be awesome for her to have and use. Thank you!
18/11/2011
My almost three year old and my 8 yr old would LOVE this!!! They could sit together and do this and share some brotherly/sisterly time on an equal playing field!! We would be soooo thankful to win!!
18/11/2011
My son will use this to help build his literacy and math skills in a fun and entertaining way

I would LOVE to win this for my 4 1/2 year old son!! I’ve been looking into the LeapFrog products lately since he has such a love for the Talking Letter Factory dvd. This looks awesome! =)

I have a 3 & 4 year old that would love to win one of these . We never own a leapfrog anything . I wish I can afford one of these but being a single mother is hard with three kids . So I thank for an opportunity to enter this giveaway .

our 3-YO twins like to try to use our iPhones and laptops and they absolutely love the LeapFrog DVD’s we just started buying, I am sure they would fall all over one of these. Oh, they have the My First LeapTops too. There is no faster way to get them to pick up their toys and sit quietly on the couch that to say “it’s LeapFrog time”!
18/11/2011
My kids would love to win this!! We have no leapster toys as of yet but welcome one! Thank you for such a generous giveaway and a great opportunity!
18/11/2011
This product sounds exactly what I have been wanting for my kids. I have a five year old who would absolutely love something like this.
18/11/2011
I would LOVE to get this for my kiddos. We love Leapfrog products!

I am a stay at home mom who homeschools 2 children, ages 8 and 10, but just had a baby almost a year ago, and had given away all my baby/toddler/younger kid things, thinking we were done having kids. So we would put this to good use!
Thanks, Luree

I would love to be able to give my 3 year old and 10 year old a new leap pad to share.. I know 10 sounds older for this Christmas item but she saw it in the store and loved it!! What can I say my kids love leap frog!!
18/11/2011
My 3 year old would love the pad
18/11/2011
My 6, 7, 8, and 9 year olds would use this.

My little boy would use it to learn to read and to listen to some great stories, as well as have some fun. He is a boy after all, right?!
