Phonics Made Fun
This Complete Phonics System comes with the innovative LeapPad, as well as with 12 books in three different learning levels designed by educators. Children can chart their learning with the included progress posters and stickers. In the first “Learn It” level, kids are introduced to phonics concepts in a method that is fun and easy for them to understand. They will learn letter names and sounds, including short and long vowel sounds, the concept of the silent “e,” and more. When they move to the second “Practice It” level, kids can use the interactive Smart Cards and Activity Boards, and their newfound knowledge, in fun lessons that encourage them to spell more than 360 words! Finally, when they are ready for the “Read It” stage, your children can actually read the three “Read On My Own” books on their own — and, if they need it, with help from the LeapPad.
What’s in the Box
Read and Write LeapPad Learning System, comprehensive lesson plan in 12 fun books, 36 interactive Smart Cards, 3 Phonics Activity Boards, 3 Read On My Own books, and progress posters and stickers.

Excellent Learning Tool – Cheaper Elsewhere!,
I purchased this Phonics program along with the 5 disc DVD set (Talking Letter Factory, Talking Words Factory I & II, Math Circus etc.). The two programs work very well together and have been a great teaching tool for my 3 year old. Although I am rating the product a “5″, there are a couple drawbacks. If you are new to the LeapFrog LeapPad system, you must know that the “pen” (pointing device) is very sensitive and will not always work properly unless you point it DIRECTLY at the item you want to use. It takes a little practice for a young one to use, but they will get used to it. Besides, it is a very minor drawback and easily correctable…just re-point. The other drawback is that if you are buying it from this site, you are paying too much. Amazon…you get a great deal of my business, but LeapFrog sells this system for half the price at http://www.leapfrog.com!

|Wonderful introduction to reading.,
I purchased this for my daughter and she really enjoys learning from all these books. If you are familiar with Hooked on Phonics, then you will find this approach similar. However, I found this Leapfrog learning system a lot better because it is interactive. Your child can use the pen to mouse over each letter and hear how each of them sound to make a word. The end of each book is like a summary, reinforcing what your child just read with more games and questions.
Another great thing about this is you are not limited to the books in the box, but to a whole library of educational Leappad interactive books as well.
I would suggest also buying The Letter Factory and the Talking Words Factory DVDs. Both were extremely helpful and would compliment this set very well.

|Very Good Reading System,
As someone who is not very good at helping my son learn to read, this system is perfect. For the first time all year, he is finally reading books on his own, and is excited about reading! I feel this was very well worth the money, and is much less than it would have cost me to hire a tutor for him.
