Last week my youngest's  LeapPad somehow ended up in a full sink of hot soapy dish water. We are not quite sure how long it had been in there but by the time my hubby noticed it was in there it was well and truly soaked. My first thought was .... "well that's the end of that". But I had to at least try and save this most loved possession. With no time to wast I

This cute little app will set you back 5 LF$ Leapfrog's suggested age range is 4-7 Years, but I would place it from 2 to 4 years, Its a very basic app where you choose one of the 5 songs Twinkle, twinkle little star Bach minuet The wheels on the bus Row, row, row your boat She'll be coming round the mountain And then conduct the four singers by turning their voices

Yesterday I was finally able to retrieve reward's again.  It looks like the issues. We have all been having with being unable to connect to the rewards screen to get treats and micromods was because they were updating the interface. I must say this new rewards screen is much better than the last one and seems to load considerably faster.

If like me you have a left handed child, I'm sure you were a Little disappointed that Leapfrog had disregarded our children when designing the Pet Pad app. My Son a Lefty was frustrated by the screen setup being orientated to the right, Making it very awkward to trace the alphabet letters without touching the rest of the screen. Well Leapfrog has finally rectified this issue, with its latest

My nephew bought this game for my daughter (5) for Christmas. It was my first choice for her. She had started to learn basic addition and subtraction last year in Grade 0 and was showing a lot of interest in maths, added to which she loves TinkerBell.
