We love LeapFrog products and honestly we have the Leapster Explorer, LeapPad1 Explorer and a LeapPad Explorer2. My boys (4 and 5) take them to bed with them, in the car and even the bathroom. What I love first off about the way LeapFrog is making their game cartridges is that they are universal for both the LeapPad1 Explorer tablet and the newest one, LeapPad2. I hate when we have to buy new cartridges for each system and this way my kids can share the cartridges. Since my boys are in pre-school and Kindergarten, I was super excited for them to try the new Ultra eBook Learn to Read Collection titles because it is a fun way for them to practice learning, without them realizing they are learning! If I ask my 5 year old to come sit and practice reading with me, he complains and whines, but if I say for him to play with his LeapPad he thinks he is off the hook.
The new Ultra eBook Learn to Read Collection is exactly in line what kids are learning in school (at least it is for my kids.) The skills are Sight words, Phonics rules, Listening and Reading Comprehension and Decoding skills. There are different levels for kids to work on as their reading skills grow, which is great since some kids need extra help or an extra challenge. Your child can tap on words to hear them sounded out and even play games.

Overall, these cartridges have been a hit with my boys. They love the stories, games and just the Leapfrog characters in general. My kindergartner who hates reading is slowly picking up words and learning how to sound them out more. He sits with his headphones and I can see him trying to sound them out. I would recommend these cartridges for any parent looking for extra help for their kids thats fun. The book/game is easy to use and my 5 year old had no problem navigating it.
