Very nice book to add on to My first Leap Pad Nov 23, 2002
By KNSudha This book covers 21 nursery rhymes, and is much nicer than the book which goes with the regular Leap Pad. Except for one, the songs are sung by Leap, Tad, or Lily, and the childrens voices are a vast improvement on the quavering high pitched voice on the other book. Nice responses, and games for your toddler -- my 2 1/2 year old really likes the book, and liked to sing along. They can learn about pretending to be a rhyme character, and also learn rhyming words which are highlighted as vocabulary when they point to objects and in the games. As compared to the Mother Goose Songbook, there is no option to listen to just one instrument at a time, or even to an instrument only version, but that is not much missed for a toddler.4 stars on the durability, since the leap pad as a whole is much too sensitive to be a toddler toy! This one also shuts off if the cartridge is jiggled, though the pen seems slightly sturdier than the green LeapPad, and its great that the flip books snap on to the pad for easier play.

Best book of the My first Leap Pad series Nov 30, 2004
By C. Meyer
"Leap Frog Fan"
My daughter takes speech therapy and one of the things they work on is rhyming. She just could not seem to get this concept down. I was at Toys R Us and since she loves her My First Leap Pad so much I was going to get her a new book. I saw this one and thought we will give it a try. By that afternoon something had clicked and she understand how to rhyme! It is now 6 months later and this is both hers and my favorite of the books that are out there for this system. I would have to say that I prefer the Leap books over the character books such as Dora and Disney Princess they just don't seem to be as interesting or educational. If you are going to add to your Leap Pad library this is a must!

another good leap book Dec 16, 2002
By Heather
"zubzubzub"
This one has a lot of fun games in a wide range of types. It has lots of the "guess which animal/person/thing I'm thinking of" games... which are my daughter's favorite. It also has a lot of pages about letter sounds and rhyming. Good addition to your leap library.

Not Fisher Price Oct 06, 2003
By S. Vitale
"sharyb"
The toy is fun and educational but the cartridges are easily lost and the pen stopped working after 3 months, probably because my kid was rough with it. If your child is tough on toys, this one won't last long.

My four-year old daughter enjoyed it... Dec 11, 2004
By Pete Vere ...but it wasn't one of her favorites. It more or less introduces kids to a number of nursery rhymes, teaching them some reading, singing and rhyming skills. Nevertheless, with regards to learning these three skills, my daughter much preferred the "There's a Wocket in My Pocket" My First LeapPad Book. This latter book is based on the work of Dr. Seuss, who is still the master when it comes to entertaining kids as you educate them about reading and rhyming.
