Leapster Learning System Reviews

This game system is great for kids of all different ages through elementary school.  I got this system for my son when he was three years old.  He absolutely loved it!  The games are great for kids just starting to learn their numbers and letters.  There are games ranging from Pet Pals, which helps a child learn the numbers,letters and words as well as how to take care of a pet, to racing games to rescue games.  All of the games help children to learn different skills in a very fun way.  My son's favorite games are Diego's rescue and Finding Nemo.  Both games help him count as well as add...

The Leapster is a handheld gaming system for preschool and elementary aged students. The device is powered by batteries (which can get pricey and can lead to problems when the batteries run out in the middle of a trip) and has several buttons for the power, moving up, down, right, left, and menu buttons.

We have a few games to go with the Leapster gaming system. We have a drawing program, a Kindergarten program, a "Cars" program. Although they all help reinforce educational skills, some are much better than others. The Kindergarten program, for example, is teaching my son basic subtraction skills...

THe leapster learning system keeps your kids busy. Lets them learn at the same time as they are playing a game. They can win awards and make great achivements. My daughter is always trying to out do her last score. The only downfall is that they keep coming out with newer and better things for leapster.  But the leapster 2 games will work with this leapster which is a plus when your trying to save money.  It's fun to bring this along on long trips. Instead of just watching a movie they can learn and keep there imagination going.

I bought the Leapster for my stepson for a christmas gift last year due to he was having problems with reading. At first, i didnt think he would like it due to he plays with action figures all the time. I found him a neat Wall E game, cause he likes Wall E and turns out he loves this game. I cant keep him off of it and his reading has improved. But leapster also teaches math, as well as has regular painting games on it,so its a fun for all for kids!

I bought this leapster for my 2.5 old son about a month ago and he loves it, some games are a little hard for him still but it entertains him, I think this is an excellent toy as it's very educational and will last him for a while, I am thinking of getting him the leapster 2 for christmas just so he has it for when he's ready to play with it, I would definetly recommend this to any parent, it educates and entertains your child at the same time.

Being the youngest of three, my son wanted a gameboy at a very young age to be like his older brother and sister. Instead, we got him hooked on the Leapster. He feels like he's playing a gameboy, but it's a great learning tool. He already knows a lot of math at 4. It is great for entertaining him during long car rides, and it's small enough to carry around.

My son (5) received this from Santa last  year for Christmas. He still enjoys playing with it and does not have many games even (maybe 4). It is great for him to be able to learn to listen and follow directions. There are many games to choose from an they are all popular characters that he loves. I love this hand held game!

Our boys each received a Leapster for Christmas and have really enjoyed the games.  It has been nice that their favorite characters from Star Wars, Cars, Wall-E and others have associated games.  The fact that the majority of the games promote learning was a key reason that we were interested in buying these toys!
