Not happy
on December 28, 2013

The leap top said that you could customize it, and you can if, you hold down the letters p, and m while you turn on the leap top. the leap top will not say the name will not use the name in emails or songs and you can hear it spell the name if you push the first letter of the name. As a parent I know how unlikely that is. I am not happy with this new version at all.
Pros: Educational, Fun for kids, Good for on-the-go play
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Not as good as the old version

This is a big disappointment compared to the old version. I was so excited to buy this for my second child as the old version was the favorite toy in our house for over a year. This version has almost none of the amazing features of the old version. It will spell your child's name, that is it. The old version had a song about your child's name, you could customize emails to be from family members. The old laptop actually taught my son how to spell his name with the cute little song.
Pros: Good for on-the-go play, Fun for kids
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Bought this for my sons birthday, had it for only a couple of weeks and the screen is black when turned on. Will not connect to my computer. I dont understand how companies get away with it.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Good product; not an educational toy

This product was a gift to my son for Christmas of 2010. He's 3 and a half years old. He toyed with it for hours on Christmas day plus a few days afterward. I downloaded the Connect software and was able to personalize it with a few songs we know our son likes. (The alphabet song in particular.) But there wasn't enough to do with the toy after he spend a few hours with it. He sometimes turns it on when he's bored, but spends only a few minutes with it. Mostly just pushing the same button quickly to make a sound.
Pros: Good for on-the-go play, Not engaging enough
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Great learning tool!!

My 2.5 year old just loves her leaptop! She "works" on her leaptop while my husband and I work on our town laptop. She totally loves listening to her emails, which you can personalize on the leapfrog website. She gets really excited when she receives an email from mommy or daddy or grandpa, etc. She's also learning the alphabet. You can control what songs play on her leaptop also. I highly recommend this for a toddler. And the prices is great!
Pros: Good for on-the-go play, Fun for kids

My daughter Loves her Leaptop! :)

from Strongsville, Ohio
My daughter recieved this as a birthday gift for her 2nd birthday.I connected it to our computer and downloaded her name and the emails and was able to choose a learning song to add to her play list plus 5 melodies.She helped me pick what she wanted and we can go back to change at anytime..which means once she outgrows it..I can change the name for her younger brother to use! I really like how it shows each letter on the screen,says the letter and the sound..its hard to find something that is simple enough for a toddler to use and to understand without having to sit there and do it for them.She can do this on her own.She loves the animals and the emails and that it says her own name.I think this is a perfect gift for her age!A great educational start! Makes learning fun! we are very happy with this product.
Pros: Good for on-the-go play, Fun for kids
I would recommend this to a friend!

FANTASTIC, FUN, Educational Device

Please BUY this laptop!
I am very fortunate to work in a top childcare center and my son is enrolled in the center as well, but due to our schedule, i bought this laptop to help further his education. I am so impressed with Leapfrogs attention to detail and how they make learning fun! They encourage speech enhancing verbal skills, and children are a sponge at such a young age(birth-5). So to hear the correct pronunciations is very important. I love the email , my son loves this as well, he is overjoyed when he gets a email from a loved one! This is perfect for a child who loves to sing, play, and explore at their finger tips! He also loves this in the car- as a smart alternative to a movie!
GREAT BUY! HAPPY MOM!
Pros: Good for on-the-go play, Fun for kids, Grows with child
