The learning difference

Children learn to read and write better when they learn to read and write together using the LeapReader and its library of learning materials.

LeapReader combines three essential literacy skills: reading, writing, and listening. By practising them together, children can grow the skills they need to help them become confident, independent readers.

Learn to read

Build important early reading fundamentals like phonics, vocabulary, and reading comprehension. Bring stories to life with lively character voices and fun sound effects as LeapReader sounds words out letter by letter.

Books in the Learning Library are catered for different ages, so young children can build core phonics skills with the Early Reading Series and the Read on Your Own Series provides a more advanced learning experience.

5.0 out of 5 stars Magic pen 11 Aug 2013
Amazon Verified Purchase
I bought this for my 5 year old son, hoping it would assist in learning. I did have reservations, was it a gimmick?, would language be American causing confusion? I am very happy to hear British English from the pen. My son loves it and should get a good one or two years use out of it, before he grows out of it. It has to be said the TAG system is technologically very advanced and flexible. It is so easy to use especially as a self help system. A reading hour in the car is not easy when you are driving, but this system fills in for the occupied parent. It is no substitute for formal teaching but it is a very convenient supplement. It really does help and is fun. The only downside is the cost. We bought the pen, a set of long vowel language books, Mr Pencil writing, some story books and a map of the solar system. I think this is enough for background play. As my son develops, his main support will be good old fashioned paper books. Watch the video's, they helped sell it to me.

Amazon Vine Review (What's this?)
Durability: 5.0 out of 5 stars    Educational: 5.0 out of 5 stars    Fun: 5.0 out of 5 stars   
My son had the older version of this, and found it useful - but I have to say that this one is so much better. It's a better design, so easier for little hands to use, and it writes!!! My son's reading is fine, but he has had real trouble with writing, to the extent that his teacher has allowed him to stop daily home reading (although he loves it, so he still does it!) and has asked him to do 10 minutes of writing practice each night. He has been reluctant (to say the least!) to do this, and has been really frustrated about having to go 'back to basics'. However, as soon as I gave him this, he couldn't wait to sit and write for much longer than 10mins a night!

I agree with other reviewers who say that the cost of the books is quite high, but for me, any amount of money would be worth it!! I have happily ordered extra books, all of which he has (luckily) enjoyed so far.

Durability: 5.0 out of 5 stars    Educational: 4.0 out of 5 stars    Fun: 4.0 out of 5 stars   
Much as I'd love to try to teach my son to read and write using the old methods that I used, this LeapFrog product has shown me that there's a lot to be said for embracing modern technology. When I try to show him letters and sounds and so on, he can get frustrated, but with this reading and writing system he can be the boss. It's engaging him in a way that I can't and is getting him excited about reading and writing. It's a clever system that works well, and although there's no substitute for sitting down with a child and teaching them, I do think this is a great thing to bring out when they're getting bored. Unlike some Leapfrog products, it's got a British voice and isn't too annoying. All in all, recommended.
