LeapFrog Unveils 'Learning Center' At The 2002 International Toy Fair". PR Newswire. February 10, 2002 . Retrieved 2 January 2016. The Dora game was a perfect choice for my toddler as she is a big fan of the show. The game follows Dora around the world with different challenges to do in every country. It’s fun, engaging and really well designed. Plus the price is right. A fabulous introduction to technology for your little one. Your child cannot access anything inappropriate, you don’t have to worry about setting filters or them stumbling upon anything dodgy. Comedian Michael McIntyre said in a sketch that if there are parents out there raising kids without iPads then he doesn’t understand how they’re doing it.

LeapPad is a range of tablet computers developed for children. Various models of the LeapPad have been developed by LeapFrog Enterprises since 1999. In the device manager under Disk Drives, you should see an item named LeapFrog Explorer USB device. As you try to complete the challenges there are smaller games you need to complete. These test your knowledge of numbers, plus my toddler found them really enjoyable. She loved completing a game and moving onto the next stage. I loved playing the games almost as much as my toddler, as you get praised constantly when you complete a task!

I think it’s great how the games for the LeapPad combine learning with fun for kids. Plus the games automatically adapt to your child’s age, so that they should be challenged but not overwhelmed by them. With the snow largely cutting us off from the outside world for a few days I’ve been super grateful to have another weapon in my arsenal of at-home entertainment for my toddler. However if you don’t want your child to have access to the internet on the tablet, you can switch off access in the parental controls section of the LeapPad. It was developed by a team from Explore Technologies, Inc. acquired by LeapFrog in July 1998.
