My First LeapPad: Leap's Big Day
© 2005 LeapFrog
This is the 16 page book that comes with the newest version of My First LeapPad. The first eight pages (side one of the book) tells the story of a typical day for Leap, the frog. He hops on a train, sails a boat, flies a plane and rides in a school bus. On each page, children can freely explore (words are read aloud and objects are labeled) or they can choose to play a game where they are prompted to "find all the musical notes" or "what's the opposite of cold?" The second half provides a sampler from all the other books. Children can trace letters, find shapes, or play the "paper piano." All of the activities are extremely responsive, although children must press the green go button on every page to register the activity with the reader. All in all, this is an excellent preschool activity.
