Review
I love, love, LOVE this product. Ever since I saw the Leapfrog products at Cybermummy I have been in love with these toys. I was over the moon when I received one for review, I think I was more excited than my three year old. I followed the instructions after letting him play around with it in test mode, which is great itself. Then set it up on the web, which is very easy, you just plug to cable in from the leaptop to your pc or laptop and the wizard will come up.
The website allows you to setup some very cool stuff for your kid, including personalised emails and the songs you want the laptop to play, whether it classical or more traditional nursery rhymes.
My three year old Lucas waited patiently at my side while I set this up and I will never forget his face when he switched it on, and Scout the wee dog said “Hello Lucas”. His face lit up and he was jumping up and down.
Now both my husband and I work with computers so we are always on our laptops, naturally Lucas wants to help out. So when he got a laptop of his own he was over the moon, he clicked on the email button and it read an email addressed to him and said love mummy or daddy or whomever you set it up for. It really is a special thing. You can change them on a regular basis and you can change the child’s name if you have more than one.
Not only does the laptop make the child feel special, but it teaches them the alphabet, sounds. music, etc. It is a great learning too for the little ones.
Best of all, its portable, doesn’t have an bits that you can lose, is sturdy and robust.
I would recommend this to everyone with a child from 2 up to 4, its fantastic. Check out their website for further information.
Thank you very much Leapfrog for give me this Leaptop to review.
