Leapfrog Leapreader Book Learn to Write with Letters Mr. Pencil

Product Information

We're advocates of the creative use of technology, but this needs to be balanced with developing physical skills such as papercraft, woodwork, clay modelling, technical drawing and soldering. If children don't develop these skills as they grow up then physical making projects can become frustrating rather than fun. The LeapFrog Mr Pencil Stylus is a chunky stylus for little kids who are learning their letters. There's an iOS app that goes with it which works on recent iPads and iPhones, though I think kids will do better with more space on an iPad. Help your child build core developmental and cognitive learning skills through interactive modules and games. Our programmable robots for kids buying guide is a good place to start if you're not sure what's available.

Learn to Write with Mr Pencil is recommended for children aged 3-6 who are learning to form their letters correctly. I have two young kids and I think this is something it's well worth spending time on. If kids get into the habit of forming letters incorrectly it can be really difficult to fix. It's much better if they form them correctly from the start.There's also the LeapPad range of tablets which use a stylus and touchscreen and have apps and games that teach letter formation and lots of other educational skills.

If LeapReader is connected to LeapFrog Connect, disconnect LeapReader from LeapFrog Connect by pushing the “Eject” button and disconnecting it from your USB cable. We think it's really important for kids to get hands-on with electronics and learn how to make circuits and write code to control hardware. There's lots of cool stuff available, but is it the right choice for the child or teenager that you are buying for? LeapPad also have other tools for helping kids learn their letters. The LeapReader pen does use paper - it's special paper that makes the experience interactive. And the LeapReader also helps kids learn to read with special books. The LeapReader is the better choice if you want your child to get used to writing on real paper. Younger kids can start with conductive playdough. For kids who like to combine craft and tech, littleBits are fab. And we love SAM Labs wireless electronics components for making it easy for kids to make Internet of Things inventions.Enjoy all the benefits of the best education app for kids without an internet connection by adding up to 24 lessons and activities to your Favorites.
