Videos and music add to the fun for endless engagement anywhere!” (#1 Kids Learning Tablet!”) I recommend the LeapPad to anyone who has kids between the ages of two and five. The LeapFrog LeapPad2 is a toy tablet with plenty of features to keep your young ones entertained and learning. The Leapfrog LeapPad two has four gigabytes of memory, a five inch touch screen, so it helps develop motor skills used to write. It’s light enough so your child can carry it around easily. The LeapPad two also comes with a stylus pen that helps develop fine motor skills. It comes in green for boys, and pink for girls. You can also get customized pads with pictures of your child favorite characters on it. The LeapPad two has a library with over forty games that help children practice preschool and school age skills. The pad comes included with five apps: Cartoon Director, Pet Pad, Story Studio, Art Studio, and another app of your choice.

It also comes with front and back cameras, a built-in microphone, a music player, and a video recorder. The ages suggested for the LeapPad two are ages three to eight, but my daughter
