Kids and technology are inevitable in this day and age especially when it is becoming an educational tool at school and at home. I know like many parents, I worry about the safety factor when you give a child access to technology so when I came across the LeapPad Ultimate – I knew it was the ultimate first tablet for the kids.
It is a real tablet!
This is not a “toy” tablet, this tablet is built with a fast, powerful quad-core processor. It has WiFi to allow for access to kid-safe content. The powerful processor allows for fun and fast gaming that the kids will love.
Kid safe
LeapSearch is the kid-safe web inbuilt in the LeapPad Ultimate that provides the kids access only to kid-appropriate content approved by LeapFrog learning experts. This means you can be left assured that the kids
are playing and learning in a safe, gated, web-browsing environment.
The LeapPad Ultimate is also built in a kid safe way as it features a built-in bumper, reinforced design and shatter-safe screen.
Learning in a fun way
The LeapPad Ultimate comes already loaded with $150 worth of apps, which means once you take it out of the box, the kids can start learning without even realising! Every game in the LeapPad Ulimate has an educational aspect to it from reading, writing, maths, phonics and problem-solving.
The Just for Me™ personalised learning technology selects games,
remembers curricular progress, and automatically adjusts learning levels
for different profiles. This is perfect as my son Maxi will be 3 soon and my daughter is 6 so I can create a profile for each child and the games and levels adjust accordingly.
The learning is never ending because even if they get through all of the apps on the LeapPad Ultimate, you can head to the LeapFrog store and digitally download more games into the tablet!
My daughter Mia is currently obsessed with two games, Disney Frozen Learning Game and Cooking! Recipes on the Road. There are so many titles to choose from and games for all interests.
Do we love it?
YES! I feel so much better that the kids are using the LeapPad Ultimate then finding them on our iPads. I know that they are kept entertained in a safe environment and they are also learning without even realising. I also love that the LeapPad will be used for years to come as I can download new games to continously keep them engaged and using their LeapPad over and over again.
The LeapPad Ultimate is recommended for children from 3 years old.
