she played with it for a bit, mostly enjoyed the colouring stuff, etc. We bought our daughter the Leappad, a few years ago.

But, if you've never tried a LeapPad, you don't know how it compares. So there is no worry about where they will go and what they will see.Ĭech wrote: ↑Yes, I stand corrected, they do have some paid apps that offer some educational value.

There is a video app that will actually play YouTube videos that have been specifically filtered and categorized for them to watch. My daughter's LeapPad 3 has Wifi enabled and has a kid-safe web browser. If you actually compared the two, you'll see that a 3-4 year old is more likely to get frustrated than to actually enjoy the experience because the tablets are just not designed for children. the quick menu pops up, they hit the back button accidentally, they swipe out of the app and most likely will mess up your desktop icons etc.this will result in a whiny frustrated child.

The problem with iOS or Android devices is the parents constant need to oversee what your children are doing and helping them out of situations, for ex. Yes, I stand corrected, they do have some paid apps that offer some educational value.

My niece does not use Android nor do I but Android does have a large app library and I'm sure it also supports a number of educational apps.

Most can be had for a fraction of the price of LeapPad software while still being a great educational tool.

I know for a fact that iOS has a massive amount of educational apps for children that are paid and free.

However dismissing iOS and Android as not having educational content, only free crap games, and being on dumb tablets is just as bad as someone who dismisses anything from LeapFrog. I'm not trying to put a damper on this deal as $29.99 is a great price for someone who is in the market for a LeapPad. I for one, do net let my children (under 8) play with any electronics unless there is a learning aspect to it.įeel free to do what you want with your kids, but to come on here and "Troll" off your opinion and offer absolutely nothing to this thread is a waste of everyone's time. Secondly, the fact that they don't put down their iPads until you rip them off their fingers is a problem, not an advantage.Īgain, there is market for these Leap Frog devices, those that feel that there is an educational advantage prefer them over any "Dumb" tablet.
