LeapFrog LeapPad Explorer Learning Tablet
Apparently, this product is the new iPad, but it’s for kids. AND it’s the hottest product on the market today. Stores are selling out since it’s almost Christmas and they were sold out on Black Friday. Lots of parents are spending a couple hundred dollars in order to secure this toy for Christmas. While it’s regularly $99 it’s currently selling for several hundred.
But what’s so special about this toy? Well, it’s a tablet that kids can use like a iPad. Except for it’s 100% kid friendly and made for kids! (obviously!)
It helps kids to learn helpful skills that they need for school, and it can be personalized. It has a library of 100+ cartridge games, apps, digital books, videos and flash card. It also includes a built-in camera and video recorder, 5″ touch screen for use with finger or included stylus and 4 apps. With 2GB of memory it’s sure to please any kids this Christmas! Parents love that kids are learning while having fun.
Don’t get us wrong, it sounds like a great product, but I won’t be paying $200-$300 for it this Christmas. Educational or not, my kids can just wait until the price goes down! 🙂
Is it just us or will you go to extreme’s to get this toy for your child for Christmas?
