Quantum Pad Learning System (Interactive Sampler, Grades 3-5)
© 2002 LeapFrog
This notebook sized book reader is styled to appeal more to an older child than the brightly colored LeapPad. They function exactly the same, and can read each other's books. Just touch the stylus to the "go" button on each page, and you can hear each word read aloud in a clear voice. The design is highly responsive, and there are many things to do. Some of the pages are transparent overlays, e.g., for learning anatomy. There are three series of books (or software) that are being released with this device. The School Success Series covers "the basics" in all general school subjects for grades 3, 4 and 5. The Exploration Series uses content from the Discovery Channel and Dorling Kindersley books, and the Great Reader Series is designed to provide reading and spelling reinforcement with such books as the Wizard of Oz, the Magic School Bus and so on. Books/cartridges cost $15 each.
