LeapFrog Explorer Learning Game: Sesame Street {Review}

Disclosure: I received this product to review in exchange for sharing my honest opinion.

I have said it before my my kids (2, 5 and 6) love their LeapPad tablets.  My 2 year old especially is getting into playing with our LeapPad tablets, and she luckily gets their old one while my boys use their new Ultra tablets.  So far some of the games are a little tricky for her but when I saw there is a New Sesame Street game out I knew it would be perfect for her!

LeapFrog Explorer Sesame Street Solve it with Elmo, Abby and Super Grover 2.0 Learning Game

Join Super Grover 2.0 on three super missions to help Elmo and Abby in Sesame Street: Solve It with Elmo, Abby and Super Grover 2.0! From driving a go-kart full of chickens to balancing pigs in a boat, little learners discover their own super powers of observation and investigation as they laugh and learn with Sesame Street. Children are introduced to essential STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) concepts featured in engaging videos borrowed from their favorite show. Plus, they take part in a variety of activities that reinforce what they learn.

I gave this game to my 2.5 year old and I was amazed at how quickly she was figuring things out.  It is hard for her not being used to really playing a game on the LeapPad and what she needs to do, but she is quickly picking it up.  There are tons of prompts for your child where they can just tap on the screen and it will say what they need to do, which I think is great for younger kids with short attention spans.  My daughter was too interested in playing the game rather than actually paying attention to the directions.  The animation is cute though and the game features Abby, Elmo, and Grover – my daughters favorites.  My 6 year old was bored with this game right away, but my 5 year old played it longer than I expected.  I think this game would be good for a 3-4 year old, or a 2.5 year old to start practicing.  For us its great because we have the old LeapPad which my daughter can call her own while my boys have the new LeapPad Ultra tablets – this is probably the youngest game I have seen both in age and characters.  Kids do not feel like they are learning in this game as the games really are great examples.  Like there is one where you have to balance the boat with pigs so my daughter kept dragging them all to one side and the boat would tip, she finally realized to try the other side and it worked.  Some of the games are hard for young kids, but I think that is the point.  Great confidence boosting games!  I would recommend this game for any mom looking for a younger game for her child, especially if they are a Sesame Street fan.
