Wonderful!Wednesday, January 26, 2005
My 3 year old son loves Bob the Builder, and has enjoyed learning to use his "My First Leap Pad" with Bob. The pictures are engaging and the games are easy to understand. We will definitely look for more Bob leap pad books!

DisappointingThursday, September 09, 2004
My son (3 1/2) loves the characters in the First LeapPad book series, but doesn't really enjoy the LeapPad books. The pace is s-l-o-w. The orientation is instructional -- and not very fun. The system depends on the reader pressing a green "Go" button to identify which page is active. Every page is framed by a border that is reserved for the successively located "Go" buttons. This works fine until your little pre-reader zips the stylus over the full page looking for hidden treasures and triggers a "Go" button for a different page. Then everyone's confused. If your child is used to structured learning, they'll probably like this a lot. If your child is used to the pace and interactivity of computer software, save this until they have some preliminary reading skills.

My 2 year old loves this!Wednesday, December 31, 2003
I bought my 2 year old son a My First Leap pad for Christmas. Out of all of the books he received he enjoys this one the most. He is not a fan of Bob the Builder and does not like the show on television, but he sure enjoys this product. There is a lot of praise and positive reinforcement. He loves to hear them cheer and tell him that he did a great job. If the games are too difficult, the book allows him to just touch the various pictures on the pages which make various sounds etc.
