Tag Reader

I've been meaning to post about this for awhile now.  Liam got the Tag Reader for Christmas in 2010.  He got the reader and two books (Scooby-Doo and Star Wars).  Basically I love anything that Leap Frog makes and this is no exception.  They all love it and it really works!  There are three different functions that you can use the reader in.  

Option one is to have the reader read the whole book to you.  It tells you when you turn the page and uses different voices for all the characters and is really great.  Kinda like the old tapes that you could listen to your stories on! ha! 

Option two is that the child can pass the reader over each word and the reader will read it to the child.  Great for kids learning to read.  They can get help with the words they don't know without interrupting their reading "flow".  

Option three is doing the games on each page.  There are little games associated with each page focusing on different things.  Once you pass each game the reader will then notify you that you have rewards online.  You log on and can print different little things that they earn.  Some are for the kids to use (like a doorknob hanger for their bedroom) and some are certificates.  Either way, Liam loves both!  

So, the moral of the story is the tag reader is well worth the money.  Not only does Liam love it but it will come in handy with Asher, Cullen, and Eden!  Love that!
