The little girl that I bought this game for just turned 3 and she loved it! Her parents had to limit the time she used it because they couldn’t get her to stop playing with it…

Leapster
My four year old grandson loves his Leapster. He takes it in the vehicle with him when we need to go to town - a 45 mile trip and plays it all the way.

has my vote
I manage an afterschool program for k-8. The kids love playing the game and I love the leapster since all the games are educational.

A winner!
We started out with one Leapster but we had to buy another because both kids were always fighting over it. My kids are 4 and 7 years old.

great toy!
My four year old carries this camera around everywhere. I am so glad I got it for him. He has had so much fun with it and he doesn’t even realize he’s learning at the same time!

Perfect for a 4 year old grandson
I bought this toy for my grandson’s 4th birthday. He loves the idea that his name appears when he turns it on.

GREAT!
We bought this for son’s 6th birthday. I thought he’d be too old for it, but he loves it! He has four games: Kindergarten (available at Wal-Mart for $18), Outwit, Diego’s Animal…
