Leapfrog Leapster Explorer Learing Game

Customer reviews

If you’re currently looking for an educational handheld system for kids 4-9, then you should consider the Explorer. Let me start by saying I’m a fan of the Leapfrog concept (educational handheld system for young kids). So perhaps I’m a bit biased. But we are also honest, so if we don’t like it, we’ll say it. Our son got a Leapster L-Max Leapster L-Max Learning Game…

My 3 year old son got this about two months ago, I agree with other reviews that say this toy is amazing, better graphics, the screen sensitivity is higher and the kids are drawn by this new leapster explorer, you can download applications very similarly than on an Iphone and your kids gets to read books that are already out on TAG. However, there is no camera like they had said there would be, there are endless commercials every time your child turns on the leapster explorer and the games are less educational than those leapfrog currently has on the market for leapster 2. Furthermore, the leapster explorer is more expensive than the Leapster 2 and the games are too pricey for the little educational content they provide. Educationally wise Leapster 2 is still the best choice out there, why do I say this? Well if you compare the games of leapster 2 (which I own all of them), to the games available for leapster explorer you will come to the conclusion that leapster 2 games has much better content for children ages 4 -8, even the older games for plain first generation leapster are more educationally inclined than the leapster explorer ones. Vocabulary wise, reading wise, math wise and simply on every scholastic level they seem to have better examples, better skill development, and create a better foundation for skills that every child needs to develop later in their educational life (such as algebra, science, etc). The Leaspter 2 also has the benefit of fewer commercials or need to be buying new games to develop a new skill. My main concern with leapster explorer, it seems that leapfrog has decided to put their marketing and money making ambitions above learning expectations. The games are fun YES, the kids will love this toy YES, but your child will not learn as much as he or she would with the leapster 2. I understand that leapfrog is a business and they need to make money, but this new toy is targeted to make our children learn to ask and ask for the next game.

Sensory Therapy Toy

how can I make him stop throwing things?

hello. I have a son who is almost 2 1/2 years old. He has autism spectrum disorder and sensory needs. I have him in behavior therapy 6 hours a week as well as 2 hours of speech and ocupasional therapy. I can not get his behavior under control. He throws everything, toys, food, drink etc.. everything he gets his hands on he throws. He even hurts people by throwing toys intentionally at them. I don’t know what to do. I have tried spanking, tried slapping his hand, tried time out, tried re directing him to something else to play with, tried picking up the toys and asking him to hand them to me or put them away, I have tried EVERYTHING I have heard to try, I even did what the therapist sugested and still he keeps throwing. argggg… if you have ANY sugestions PLEASE help.
thank you.

Most 2 year olds experiment with cause and effect, and throwing is unfortunately a great way to learn how things work. He throws something at someone and it gets a reaction. Be it positive or negative.

So, a perfectly normal 2 year is likely to experiment with throwing objects. Since your son has a spectrum disorder, you may be battling with it for a bit longer than others, but if you are consistent it should subside with time.

How is your son at communicating? The throwing behavior, especially at other kids may be his way of expressing frustration or distaste for the situation. Being autistic he is likely easily upset, and if you are able to get him out of the situation before he reaches the boiling point, you can avoid some of the throwing scenarios.

You can also offer him plenty of soft toys, so that if the throwing continues at least he won’t hurt other children around him.

Good luck, and remember that at 2, he really isn’t doing this behavior to hurt others or cause you any heartache. He is simply trying his best to figure out the world around him.

I do what cherios tell me

Save an egg crack a smile

Why is the alphabet in that order?Is it because of that song?

Bills travel thru the mail at twice the speed as checks

If a #2 pencil is so popular why is it #2?

I need help dress shopping?

So, I’m going to my boyfriend’s sister’s wedding with him. So, of course, I need to dress up some. I need to find a somewhat formal dress, I was thinking something that hits me about the knee, but here’s the deal, I’m only 5ft tall, right? I’m petite naturally, however, I have so much trouble finding dresses that fit some what properly. I’m build differently, I wear a size like 2 or 3/4 pants in juniors, I have a tad bit of a larger chest size 34D, so I always have trouble finding something that will fit over my chest, it’s either too small over the chest and fits every where else, or doesn’t fit in the cest and no where else, advice?
those ar really pretty, but i don’t have $200 to blow.

why dont u try something like this..its loose up top but it will accentuate ur bottom half..

http://www.edressme.com/d1965.html

or maybe something like this that will hold the girls in place but since the bottom is flowing it will look like it fits. lol

http://www.edressme.com/13981.html

http://www.edressme.com/4893b.html

or a dress that loose from everywhere! lol so it has to fit right, right?

http://www.edressme.com/4766w.html

http://www.edressme.com/13963.html

if nothing else works, tape them down!! lol jk!
*the dresses are just examples, don’t look at the price, lol just look at the style, shop around and hopefully u’ll find what ur looking for.
good luck! =]

Question about Sims 3 items?

Just wondering, haven’t read too much on it, I play it and I haven’t noticed as far as what I saw from sims 2 the items being kind of basic and dull, are there kind of like achievements that unlock other items, like from the previous ones, you could have futuristic devices, rocket, gnome workshops, magic lamps, crystal balls, coffins, etc, are there those type of items in the game? or in world adventures? I just miss doing the crazy things lol

There are still things you can buy with achievement points (I think they’re called something different in this game.) There are things like Moodlet Manager, which allows you to change someone’s mood to either good or bad. There is a food duplicator, a machine that instantly transports you anywhere, and a machine that changes your body shape instantly. As for job rewards, I know that in the science career you can get a machine that can upgrade other items, but I’m not sure about every other career. I don’t have World Adventures yet, so I couldn’t tell you about that.

The Top Attractions Of Gold Coast City

Beaches Obviously, beaches are one of the major selling points of the Gold Coast. The city is comprised of 57km of coastline with some of the major prominent surf breaks not only in Australia, but in the world! Some of the popular beaches include The Spit, Main Beach, Broachbeach, South Stradbroke Island, Mermaid beach and Nobby Beach.

One of the world’s most renowned surfing beaches is Duranbach Beach, near the area. You will not be spoilt for choice in searching for wonderful golden and sun kissed beaches!  Don’t forget to take in a trip to Surfer’s Paradise, a suburb of the Gold Coast. Vibrant nightlife, shopping and surfing are the main attractions here!

The Q1 Building The Q1 building is the world’s tallest residential building. It is the 2nd highest public viewing point in Australia and indeed the Southern Hemisphere, the highest being the Eureka Tower in Melbourne.  The observing point on level 77 affords you wonderful views in all directions around Queensland, from Brisbane to Byron Bay. The view over the Surfers Paradise skyline is magnificent, and a visit to the 322 metre high building is a must if visiting the Gold Coast.

Gold Coast Arts Centre The City Art Gallery of the Gold Coast was opened in 1986 to the public and receives thousands of visitors each year.

Ripley’s Believe It or Not Museum Due to re-open in December 2009, a visit to this museum is well worth taking. By taking a self-guided tour, you will discover 12 galleries with amazing stories of magic and mystery. 

Tropical Fruit Farm on the Gold Coast Tropical Fruit World is well worth checking out – it is the home of the world’s largest variety of fruit of the tropical variety! Enjoy the various attractions of the Fruit Farm from a Train Ride across the island, Fruit shows and exhibitions, the fauna park featuring the major animals of the region, and walks along the celebrated Rain Coast.

Whale Watching Take a cruise along the Gold Coast and travel on the “Mahi Mahi” cruiser and not only will you catch a glimpse of the magnificent humpback whale specimens, you will also travel along the Nerang River, past the wonderful architecture of the area.

Dreamworld Theme Park The largest theme park in Australia, Dreamworld has been used as the venue for the Australian version of Big Brother. Some of the main attractions at Dreamworld include on Main Street – (Croc Pond (drivable boats) and Remota Boats). on the Ocean Parade (The Claw, The Cyclone and the Flowrider) and at Nickelodeon Central (themed rides from Dora the Explorer to Spongebob Squarepants). Other areas include the Australian Wildlife Experience and Wiggles World for children.

Sea World is a marine mammal park and has some fantastic water rides, animal exhibitions and promotes the conservation theme through educating visitors and also providing rescue and safety for ill, injured or threatened wildlife.

Wet ‘N’ Wild Water World Located at Oxenford, this theme park is owned by Warner Village Theme Parks. It is the largest waterpark in Australia, and the third largest in the world. With exciting rides and exhibitions taking place, it is a perfect place for a family day out.

Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary contains hundreds of native Australian fauna on display in natural bushland and rainforest settings. The park covers an area of 27 hectares of rainforest vegetation, and visitors can come close to a crocodile, cuddle up with a koala bear, fraternise with kangaroos and check out other birdlife and marsupials native to Australia.

WhiteWater World This water park on the Gold Coast opened in December 2006. WhiteWater World contains six primary water slide attractions, a huge wavepool, as well as safe play areas for children. It is located directly opposite Dreamworld. 

So there you have it – a guide to the main attractions of the Gold Coast! Interested in taking a self-drive tour of the region? The best way to get around is to hire a car, so check out our Car Hire Gold Coast page.

Do you think young children in daycare have advantages over young children who are not?

i have noticed a few kids who are in a structured daycare who seem much more advanced than my son who is not in daycare, I sit down with him play and recite the abc’s and numbers, go over colors,and shapes. But, i am starting to think that maybe he needs a more structured environment and would benefit from being around other kids. Maybe he would pick up things more? What are your opinions on this?
my son is 2

Kids do learn from interactions with other kids and not having the parents around for a portion of the day is good for them. Being home can compare, having multiple kids, consistant playdates etc. I do agree though, that kids who go to daycare, have more regular interaction with kids their age, which helps them progress faster. It also depends on what kind of place you have your child too. I noticed a HUGE difference in my daughter’s development between daycare with many different ages where she was in the older set compared to preschool, where she was with older kids.

I’m sure it varies per child blah blah blah, but i do think it does benefit them about 2 1/2 to start in a prechool like environment so long as it isnt rigidly scheduled and allows plenty of free play
