Customer Reviews
So far, so good -- Updated Review
I bought this for my 7 year old (2nd grade) to help him get faster at math - mainly multiplication and division. He found the included games and quizzes and seems to really enjoy it so far.
Pros: Mainly educational. Great for drills. Fun (albeit simple) games. Downloadable, FREE content. Ability to create custom flash cards.
Leapfrog Crammer, so far so good.........
It was this item or the Leapfrog Didj and this one won. It is suggested for grades 3 thru 8. I bought this for the flash cards and quizzes. My 9 year old has had this item for 24 hours and it has been in her hands for most of it (except to sleep of course). The start up is very simple and quick. Leapfrog's website is easy to navigate and has free downloads of the flashcards and quizzes. Songs are very simple to load. I would like to explore more of what it does but my DD won't give it up! My only complaint so far (and hers) are the earbuds that are provided with it are very uncomfortable hard plastic so you may want to pick up a pair of soft more comfy ones. I am satisfied with my purchase.
I bought this product originally for my nephew, but ended up selfishly keeping it for myself. As a college student I find the flash card software a wonderful alternative to the bundles of index paper I've spent hours making and even more time picking up. The software is very efficient in that I am able to quickly make French flashcards. Though the software does not have an accent option I am however able to paste in letters that contain them.
I do understand others' complaint about the small dark screen, but as an adult reader I have no need for jumbo print and have had no trouble using this on the subway. I do notice that these small letters are a bit difficult to distinguish at times between U and V etc.
