LeapFrog LeapPad Mr. Pencil Ultra eBook

Get set for an epic reading adventure with the Mr. Pencil The Lost Colors of Doodleburg Ultra eBook! When Dr. Dull steals the colors from Doodleburg, it’s up to you to help Mr. Pencil, Dot and Dash save the day using your reading and writing skills.

  • Features three auto-adjusting reading levels and six reading and writing activities
  • Teaches comprehension, writing skills, vocabulary, word recognition and phonics
  • The cartridge is compatible with LeapFrog LeapPad1 and LeapPad2 Learning Tablets.
  • This Ultra eBook is appropriate for kids ages 4-7.

My oldest son is 6 years old and hates reading but loves his LeapPad, so I wasn’t sure how he’d feel about this game. Needless to say he absolutely loves it and doesn’t even realize he’s learning while playing. The Mr. Pencil Ultra eBook is for ages 4-7, and its great because it has three different levels depending on your child’s level. When they start it will be easy for them and then gets harder as they get better. My son is learning words from this game that he has had trouble reading from traditional books. My son loves that he can touch the words to hear them said out by sounding out the letters or even the definitions for some words.

As Aidan is reading, he is also unlocking special items and badges, which I can check out on LeapFrog Dashboard, but I haven’t had the chance to hook it up yet since he is always playing on it! In addition to hearing the sentences, words and reading along, there are also small writing activities for kids, which my son refers to as “games.” I’d say this is the perfect game for any child whether they are struggling with reading like my son is or even a good reader and just wants to incorporate something fun into reading. It should also be noted that this is different that the Mr. Pencil Saves Doodleburg game, which we also have. This game is more reading and words focused. If you don’t want your child to deal with a cartridge, you can also download this an an “app” on the Leapfrog Leappad Dashboard – that way the game is downloaded onto the LeapPad device and you don’t have to worry about losing the cartridge.

  • We have reading time for the whole family. My husband and I rotate each night with which kids we sit one on one with and then we always end with reading one picture book together before it is lights out!

  • your child will usually do anything as long as mommy or daddy is involved and participating - that makes it fun

  • When my daughter was little I read to her a lot.When she learned how to read she just loved it. My almost 5 yr old neice loves LeapFrog so this would be perfect for her. Thank you for the awesome giveaway :)

  • we read to our kids when they were babies so they grow up loving books and reading!

  • we really dont have to get her to read because she loves reading and looking at the pictures on her own
