Leapster Ultra Handheld Learning Game Console for Kids Age 4 Years and up

We were hesitant to introduce video games to our 4 year old, but I must say this is a great alternative to the traditional video game options. The games focus on fundamentals (letters, numbers, etc.) He has been able to navigate the majority of the games on his own which is great. The quality of the product is excellent for the price point. Easy buttons to maneuver and the size is perfect for younger kids. We do limit the amount of time he gets on it and it seems to be going well. Very happy with the purchase. Leap Frog did not disappoint.

It’s lovely and my niece loves it. She plays with it every day.

It comes with lots of cool games, my son loves it. its very easy to use and i feel better handing this too him rather then his tablet. He seems too draw more towards this then any of his other toys.

I like that this has a ton of different mini games. Yes it’s still screen time but it has so many educational games. My child does lot just stare mindlessly at this. I’m sure it also helps with hand eye coordination too! The sound is good and has volume control, perfect so mom doesn’t get over stimulated! Took my toddler a little bit of time getting used to the controls but figure it out without frustration.

Before I gifted this to my son, I set up the unit to test for myself. I was initially concerned it would not hold his attention for very long, but am pleased to report that he is very satisfied. I have tried my best to keep my son away from smart phones, video games, and digital tablets as I wanted him to build the necessary basic motor skills before introducing him to something like this device. You can’t keep them completely away from them this generation, unfortunately. Of course, his first gut instinct was to tap the screen, immediately when the first series of prompts came up. As he used the Leapster, he began asking questions about the words and terminologies used in each of the games, prompting conversation between parent and child… not to mention a lot of laughter. These interactions are all invaluable for a parent. As for the software, the games are all intuitive enough for young children to quickly grasp. My son was able to follow the instructions without my guidance and navigate through the games all on his own. The only issue with this is introducing your child to a potentially addictive source of entertainment, which I have quickly decided to set rules around (30-minutes a day, only after homework is finished). As for the unit, the unique controls were intuitive enough for him to pick up quickly. It also has a bright, colorful, and rotatable LCD screen, which is also impressive. I believe this product is a good kick-start to engage children with digital products. Overall, I am pleased with the product and would recommend it to others with children.

My son loves this game, it’s easy for him to use ! It’s had alot of games honestly so it’s fair priced and I don’t think the price is bad! It has a lot of educational and motor skill games and games for all age ranges. The screen is perfect size with the ability to rotate which I think is nice

Good for keeping kids busy in car . Good quality , very durable , my 7 year old says it’s boring but my 6 year old loves it so I guess it’s hit or miss

Would recommend for 4-5 year olds

My son loves it! Educational and less dopamine-addicting than a tablet. My advanced 4 year old son loves it.

I have tested it , hopefully it can bring the joy to my kid

Works better than expected, long battery life, very durable. Games are fun to play.

Il est très bien , un peu gros mais l’écran en couleurs est cool .

The kids love it
