I recently had the opportunity to work with Leap Frog on their new LeapReader Reading and Writing System. While I am not a teacher, I work really hard with my son on his homework, reading and math skills and try to engage his interests (whether its plants and gardening or race cars!). The LeapReader “Ready, Set, Read, Write” Party! seemed like a great way to get to know some of my son’s school friends and their parents.
Leap Frog sent us a giant party pack that contained two LeapReaders pre-loaded with LeapReader books and learning apps,
LeapReader Books including Learn to Write Letters with the Mr.Pencil writing Workbook, Talking Words factory writing workbook and LeapFrog Disney-Pixar Monsters University 3D book and Monsters University 3D glasses, Get Ready for Kindergarten book, Talking Words factory flash cards, two LeapReader sampler books and lots of great information for parents and teachers regarding the new product.
