LeapFrog My Own Leaptop, Pink

I got the LeapFrog My Own Leaptop for my 2-year-old son, and it has been a fantastic purchase! He absolutely loves pressing the buttons and hearing the different sounds, songs, and letters. It’s the perfect size for his little hands, and I love that it's both fun and educational. The pretend email feature makes him feel like he has his own "computer" just like the grown-ups, which he finds so exciting!The laptop is sturdy and durable—perfect for a busy toddler who loves to explore (and sometimes drop things!). The battery life is great, and it's lightweight enough to bring along when we’re out and about. It keeps him engaged while also helping him learn letters and words in a playful way.I highly recommend this for any parent looking for an interactive, screen-free learning toy. My son is already picking up new words and letters, and it’s so fun to watch him play and learn at the same time! 💚💻✨

We recently bought our 2 and a half year old daughter the LeapTop0 Violet and overall we are very happy and satisfied with the toy and with our purchase.Originally, I wanted to purchase the Scout version so that after my daughter outgrew the toy, my son, (just 5 months old) will be able to play with it as well. I don't know why, but the Violet version is actually cheaper by a dollar so I chose it.I'm giving this toy a five star mostly because my daughter loves it so much and I feel that she is learning from it as well. However, despite all of its great qualities, I think the design could still use a few improvements. Here are some positive and negative points:Appearance and Exterior Design:It is cute and attractive to me and to my baby girl. I love that it's purple and pink, I think it is just girl enough without having to resort to princesses or Barbie. She loves dogs and she likes the little paw print mark on the front when it's flipped close. She also likes able opening and closing it and carrying it around the house by the handle. It is light weight but thick enough to be durable. Of course, she has dropped it a few times already, but so far no harm done.The Keyboard:When you flip it open, all the buttons are just the right size for little fingers. The keys are purple and the letters on them are white, (good contrast) Also the alphabet is all upper case, which I like because that is what she knows right now. She likes pushing the pink mouse up and down. The mouse changes the modes between letters, music and animals.Sound Quality:The speaker is right above the keys and the sound is very clear whether it is music or sounds being played or Violet's voice speaking or the male narrator saying the letters and their corresponding sounds. The on/off switch also serves as the low and high volume setting switch. Violet, (the little dog character) has a kid-like friendly and upbeat voice. Unfortunately, when it is on the animal mode and you press the J, it will say "Who has kenticles? Jelly fish." Hopefully LeapFrog will catch this error and fix it for others..Being Able to Personalize:It was no hassle at all to download the application onto my computer, hook up the LeapTop with the included USB cable and personalize. In a few minutes I was able to add my daughter's name, select for her some music and add preset emails from me, her dad and her baby brother. With this said, it would have been nice to have a bigger selection of music. They let you choose just one sing-a-long song (basically a song with words) out of 5 in total, and you have a choice of 5 melodies out of the 15 or 20 they have. Really, it felt very limiting not to have a bigger variety. This same sentiment also goes for the emails. Basically you have three different emails to add on. You get to choose the sender; Mommy Daddy, other family relations such Aunt, Grandpa, etc or just a name, then you get to choose out of a short list a sentence that you want that email to contain. It would have been very nice to have a longer list of email content, and more importantly, why only three personalized emails. I would have preferred more emails from people she knows and less emails from Violet. Really, the personalization aspect is an excellent idea and LeapFrog could have been just a little more creative about it.Educational Value:I have been trying to get my daughter to answer "What's your name?" correctly and I like that Violet will says her name when she turns this on and as she plays with it. It will even say "That's the first letter of your name" when she presses the A. She does know her letters, but she doesn't know their sounds, and I am happy that she is mimicking the narrator when he says "L says lll L - lion"Fun Factor:She loves singing along with the ABC song and dancing to the other music. She smiles at the animation. She also enjoys hearing and seeing different animals. Her favorite right now is the Bumble Bee and the Umbrella Bird. She will press the B and the U repeatedly just to see the animals on the screen and to repeat the words. She also enjoys making interesting, quirky sounds on the music mode.Screen and Animation:Really, if my daughter wasn't having so much fun with this toy, I would take off two stars because of the screen. Firstly, I don't understand why the screen has to be so small. Would it really cost so much more to add an inch? Secondly, it is difficult to see. My daughter doesn't seem to mind so much, but the images are supper light. A little more contrast would have gone a long way. The animations are simplistic, but captivating and fun enough for a toddler. I just hate that this is such a great toy but the screen design was not well thought of at all.Overall, we are happy we bought the LeapTop Violet for our daughter. The flaws are not a big deal when she is having so much fun playing and learning with this toy. It was a good buy for the price. I would recommend this for other toddlers, but I would warn about the screen.

This is a good educational toy for toddlers , loves it. entertaining and educational options to pick in the setting.

This is a great gift. I got it for my 4 year old niece and she plays with it all the time. Her 2 year old sister also really enjoys it. Pink was the perfect color for her. It educational, has 2 noise levels, and is fun for the kids

My little one absolutely loves it. It’s a fun, educational tool that introduces them to letters, music, and pretend play with emails—all in one cute, portable package. The green color is vibrant and appealing, and it’s the perfect size for small hands to carry around.It’s simple to use, and the different learning modes keep kids entertained while they learn basic skills. If you want a sturdy, engaging toy that helps your child feel like they have their own “laptop,” this is a great choice!

This is the second Leaptop I've purchsed. Such a great teaching tool to learn the alphabet, objects, sounds, music. My grandson is 28 months and his blue Leaptop is one of his favorite toys. I just received this pink one is for my granddaughter who just turned one years old. I know the product packaging states ages 2 years and up, but my grandson first started using his at a year for the music and beginning learning his ABC's.It has 3 modes of play. Here's information included with the little laptop:1. Emails--lets you hear from scout and violet, plus 3 personalized emails chosen by you.2. Music play list--includes instrumental and lyrical that you chose and download to the leaptop. The sing-along is 1 of 5 songs and and the instrumental lets you select 5 from a list of about 15. The character dances along on the screen.3. Blog--hear the latest blog entries, personalized with your child's name at the end of each.4. Alphabet mode--introduces letters and phonics. Hear the letter name and sound, plus an animal that starts with the letter.5. Music Maker Mode--turns the keyboard into a music station. The paw print makes background beat while the 3 rows are: silly sound effects, percussion sounds, and piano key sounds.6. Animal Mode--Learn about animals for each letter of the alphabet. Press a letter and hear a clue, the paw print reveals the animal it is.Something I have not yet explored is connecting to the Leapfrog learning path.It uses 3 AAA batteries. I've not had to change the batteries yet, but it is easy to do. It has a build-in handle which makes it easy for my grandson to carry around with him. This is a great feature which seems to greatly decrease the chances of dropping. It's made of a very sturdy plastic and is easy to wipe down after the day's play.I just can't stress enough how much my little Sammy enjoys this and what a great learning tool this has been for him. He is so proud of his ability to show and tell about the features and what he is learning.

Size is perfectGreat entertainment for grandchild
