Editorial Review: Product Description: Turn your TV into a maximum learning machine! Maximize the learning by connecting the Leapster L-Max handheld directly to your TV for expanded play. Dual-screen action allows your child to interact with the handheld screen and see the learning unfold on the TV screen. The full Leapster and Leapster L-Max library allow your child to play action-packed games while learning essential preschool through 4th grade skills. Requires 4 "AA" batteries (not included). Measures 6.25" x 4.25" x 1.75". L-Max software sold separately. Amazon.com Product Description: The award-winning original LeapFrog Leapster handheld takes it up a notch with the Leapster L-Max for kids ages 4 to 10 years. This handheld features dual-screen action (players interact with the handheld screen and watch the results on their TV screen), multiple skill levels, tailored tutorials, and unlimited potential for educational fun. Slip in one of Leapster's many separately sold software games ("Letters on the Loose," "Rock the World," "Madagascar," "Dora the Explorer Wildlife Rescue," etc.) and follow spoken instructions. Youngsters won't even realize they're learning how to write their letters, identifying plants and animals, recognizing mathematical concepts, matching shapes, performing logical reasoning, mastering diphthongs, and even expressing ideas musically and artistically!
Educational Game Player. Lets players learn essential school skills with leveled games that teach reading, math, and critical thinking skills. Digital Art Studio. Encourages creative thinking with dozens of art tools and step-by-step lessons that let children draw, write, and create anything they can imagine. Electronic Book Reader. Inspires a love for reading via electronic storybooks that teach literacy skills, story comprehension, vocabulary, and phonetic awareness. Interactive Video Player. Develops fundamental reading and math skills by playing interactive videos that encourage children to participate in the action. The device itself is comfortably shaped for little hands with safe, rounded edges, and is small enough to store and travel easily. Games offer multiple skill levels and teach kids letters, words, plants, animals, shapes, and basic math. The L-Max requires special cartridges (sold separately) for dual-screen play, but can work with existing Leapster titles. Older titles won't play on dual screens, though, and may not project to the TV. Four AA batteries are required, but not included. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Well worth the $$$!We have 3 boys, ages 3, 5, and 7. We were trying to hold out on video games since it will probably be inevitable at some point, but this Leapster is not your typical video game. They are learning a lot and are most definitely using their brains while they're playing. We have a few games, some letter/word ones as well as math. And they all love to play with it- it was very easy for them to just pick up and start playing. Even the 3-yr old. It goes through batteries pretty quickly, but we use an old ... Read More Rating: - Leapfrog replaced it free, no questions asked AFTER the warranty had expired!We purchased an LMAX for our five year old for Christmas, and she loved it. It worked wonderfully for the first 5 months or so, then the screen just went- you could hear the game going, but the screen was blank. We put in a call to Leapfrog, they told us to send it in. We did, and exactly 1 week later, went outside and tripped over a brand new one in a box on our front step. To top it off, the new one had a screen cover on it, whereas ours hadn't had one. We were so impressed. The warranty was only ... Read More Rating:  - Perfect Traveling EntertainmentI bought this L-Max for my 5 year old over a year ago & she has really enjoyed it. Very handy for long trips. We've hooked it up to our tv, but very rarely use that feature. Wish there was a larger variety of games for the L-Max that is tailored for girls. Great for younger children, but would not recommend this for children over the age of 7. My oldest child has a Nintendo and my youngest is starting to play with it more often than her L-Max. Rating:  - Good but...The leapster lets your child feel like they are playing video games, but you feel good because they are learning. However, it's a pricey toy that gets played with for a short while, and then forgotten. Leapfrog customer service is awful, and not customer focused, so my review of any of their products is tainted by my experience with the company. If you don't deal with them and your product never breaks, you'll be lucky. : ) My recommendation is spend more time reading ... Read More Rating: - Leapster L-MaxFantastic product! Simple enough for my 3 yr old to use and still entertaining for my 11 yr old. The inbuilt games are great and the option of having it plugged into the t.v. is fantastic. Make sure you buy good quality rechargable batteries as they do run out pretty fast. |
