With a slew of new tablets flooding the market aimed at both children and grownups, it’s hard to believe there was ever a time that if you said iPad to someone they would look at you like an alien. In the world of educational toys many parents told us that they hold LeapFrog in the same esteem that many hold Apple. This LeapPad is chock full of kids apps, books, videos, art and math programs. The design is perfect for kids’ hands and it is durable enough to last a long time. Adding a microphone, camera and better speakers, this version is a truly upgraded model and between the colors of the unit and the colors on the screen it has huge appeal. While LeapFrog has created a superb product they must keep an eye on their pricing. Yes, this is less expensive than an iPad but the game cartridges run over $20 while apps are either free or a couple of bucks. This is an issue that parents expressed concern over. They had no complaints about the LeapPad2 or the huge appeal it held, but expressed concern for the company’s flagship product which they feel strongly about.
