LeapFrog Interactive World Map Review

I blog about LeapFrog books and products quite often and each time I find myself more impressed with what they have to offer. One of my most recent reviews was for their LeapReader, with so many books compatible with it, it's become a great reading companion to my children. Well last week we were lucky enough to receive LeapFrog's Interactive World Map.

Cinderella, The Heart That Believes Book Review

I absolutely love being a LeapFrog amabassador and the girls have really benefited from this too. A couple of weeks ago my youngest daughter was extremely excited because we received Cindrella, The Heart That Believes in the post. Cinderella is currently her favourite Disney Princess so she promptly walked off with the book. 

LeapFrog LeapReader Review

Having recently reviewed the LeapReader Junior, a toy aimed to encourage reading amongst 1-3 year olds, I was extremely pleased when LeapFrog gave me the chance to review the original LeapReader which is aimed at 4-8 year olds.

LeapFrog say that this is a complete learn to read and write solution, cleverly sounding out words, allowing children to practice their letter strokes within the books and building up comprehension along the way.

LeapFrog Loves Disney Princesses and We Do Too

LeapFrog chose their Cindrella LeapReader book as their book of the month for April, this got my girls nodding in agreement, they love all things to do with Disney Princess.

So to keep the Disney Princess love going, we were kindly sent the Disney's Tangled LeapReader book and Sofia the First LeapTV game to have fun with, both favourite princesses in our house so there was much excitement when these arrived in the post.

We were also sent a LeapReader which I will be reviewing soon so look out for that but for now lets concentrate on the book.

Aimed at children aged 4-8 this isn't just your typical Rapunzel story.

The LeapReader allows you to not only listen to the story narrated through the LeapReader itself but there also pages where you can choose your own words for the story, muddle it up a little if you will.

A Family Book Club Party

A couple of weeks ago I mentioned the reading guide which LeapFrog had put together, this was filled with tips on how to get kids reading at home. One of the suggestions was holding a book club party, something you can do as a family or your children can do with friends. It gives them the opportunity to read the same book as others and discuss what they thought about the story, the characters etc.

LeapFrog were kind enough to provide my kids and I with the bits needed to hold a book club party of our own, the book we were going to be looking at was Sofia the First, which is compatible with LeapFrog's very own LeapReader.

I'll be reviewing the LeapReader very soon but for now let me show you just how well our party went.

We were given lots of goodies including dressing up outfits, decorations, colouring kits and plenty of items to pop into party bags.

You Could Win With #SofiatheFirst

Do you have a Sofia the First fan in your house? Well you might be pleased to know that Leapfrog have just launched a LeapReader Junior Sofia the First book. To celebrate this with all of you, LeapFrog are offering you all the chance to win not only a copy of the new book but a LeapReader Junior too.

So what do you have to do??

Tomorrow, on the 24th of April, myself and my daughter Gracie will be starting our very own Sofia the First story on twitter.

I will then be asking one of my followers to continue the story.
