Worth Buying?
Is your child curious about technology? Does your child try to use your devices to play games or read? If yes, your child is ready for the LeapPad2. Kids seem to be grasping technology quicker and quicker these days, and unfortunately they usually like to steal our tablets and smartphones! The LeapPad 2 is a safe way for them to play on a machine that’s both durable and restricted to kid-suitable activities.
By offering your child the LeapPad2, he or she will have the opportunity to learn, read, and relax. It’s designed to be so fun that your child won’t even know that they are learning! Note that, for more varied and advanced learning, you will need to purchase additional apps and games.
There’s still plenty included in the original purchase, though, including front and back cameras that’ll really encourage your kids to get creative. Like a real tablet, the LeapPad2 also includes a calculator, calendar, notepad, clock, and stopwatch, which gives your child the same applications that you may have on your tablet.
The LeapPad2 is durable enough to handle drops or rough usage from children. It is made for small hands for ease of comfort and use. The rechargeable battery lasts a full 9 hours, and comes with amazing power and speed.
Two things that you should be aware of is that this toy does not have the high resolution that you may be used to with your tablets; however, for a child this is probably not what he or she is looking for. Also, as your child grows, you will find that this toy does not have enough challenging applications to download, but he or she will probably be moving on to other devices by this time.
Overall, this is a great toy with loads of activities for your child. It is sure to keep your child engaged for hours. It does come with a high price tag to match, and you may not want to upgrade if you already own the original LeapPad. For those who are new to learning tablets, however, it’s a good option.
