Customer reviews

Wonderful educational tool 5
I bought this for my son to get ready for kindergarten. He really likes it and finds it fun and challenging. He just started kindergarten and this will be perfect for him to learn as well as reinforce what he learns at school. I love Leap Pad!

The Best book 5
Perhaps the best book for the LeapPad. My daughter started using it at age 3 and could read on her own and spell 3 and 4 letter words and more before starting kindergarten. Absolutely wonderful book and it helps kids learn on their own to further build their self confidence. A must have if you own the leap pad.

for beginners 4
my three year old who is still learning these things likes this book, but my 5 year old who already knows most of the information doesn't really like it (not challenging enough). I'd say it's great for learning/teaching but not the best for review/practice.

Great book! 4
This is one of my daughter's favorite books that she has for her LeapPad system. It was a gift from her aunt who is an elementary school teacher. It's one that she goes back to time after time and will sit with for long periods of time.

FUN FOR A WHILE 3
THIS WAS PURCHASED FOR A YOUNG CHILD AFRAID TO GO TO THE DOCTOR TO HELP HIM GET OVER HIS FEAR. IT WAS FUN FOR A SHORT WHILE SEEMS TO HAVE HELPED WITH DOCTOR VISITS.

Good starter. 5
My 8 yo daughter wanted a stethoscope to play Dr. with and she got a doctor's kit for Christmas from a family member. It had a toy stethoscope which is well and fine... but I wanted my daughter to have one to actually hear people's hearts. I looked for a "Working" one and came across this one. I purchaced it and am fairly pleased. The only thing about it is, it's kinda tight in the ears for little ones, otherwise it's great!

Great for the Price 5
My 3 year old boy has been playing doctor with pretend stethoscopes for a month now.I looked up this item on Amazon and found the price was great for a real working stethoscope.My boy was shocked the first time he heard my heart beat for real in his ears.He said "Papa,whats that?Drums?"It was a good experience for him.I do control the use so he can have it for years to come.
Cant go wrong with this item.

2ND EXPANSION TO KILLER BUNNIES MUST HAVE BASIC KILLER BUNNIES GAME AND THE RED BOOSTER

Customer reviews

Must have the boosters 5
If you're wondering whether or not you need to buy the booster packs for Killer Bunnies, the answer is yes!!Especially if you already love the original, the boosters add tons of fun cards, new abilities, and added dimensions to this already awesome game!!!
Definately worth adding to your current collection.

Fun game 5
I love the killer bunnies game it's fun for whole family. Plus you get to be evil during the game and kill off your other players cards and bunnies during course of game. But if you love a good humor game buy this whole set from start to finish. Then look for new one comming out later this year.

Great Expansion! 5
This is the third expansion pack and you have to buy them in order, the first is yellow, but usually comes with the basic game. The second one is red. This game is really fun. I enjoy it very much and this pack gave us some fantastic new cards to make the game even more wild and crazy. I really love the Low Jack Kojak card, you can cause someone to lose all their carrots! The Insight card (where you see 5 of the carrot cards that aren't the winner) is also a great card! I love this game and this expansion pack made the game even better!

Cute addition. 4
Pokemon toy is actually larger than what I would expected for being only 5 inches... On its head is a thin, small loop of string where one could hang it as a ceiling decoration, or otherwise. If you don't like the string, simply cut it. It's all one string, so it all comes out with a simple snip (though it will leave nearly unnoticable small holes where you cut the string... that look kind of like spider bite marks, heh). I don't find them bothersome, though.

This particular Darkrai doesn't have any legs/appendages, which was fine by me. However, its underside has a certain flat "stool" so that the Darkrai can stand up. The edges of its body (the "skirt") hide this stool, so it is undetectable upon first glance (such as the picture given for this Pokemon above).

Overall, though, a very nice buy (though a tad pricey). Recommended for any Pokemon fan, from the casual to the hardcore.

Happy Pokemon Fan 4
This was a Christmas gift for my son. He's a huge Pokemon fan and absolutely loved it. Especially because it was from Japan, and it is one of the more unusual Pokemon stuffed characters. It's a great piece in his collection.

Design Flaw Poor Seam 2
As many others have stated...the seam near the hose attatchment will rip even with very careful usage.
The first time we used the slide all 8 kids had a blast HOWEVER we never did set up the "tunnel" part because it kept falling over and we never bothered with the "ramp" part either. Tried the ramp but it was too hard even for the 8 year olds to get up over it because of how far you have to run to jump onto it is a bit unsafe too running that much on the water.
We went back to just the regular simple slide and they had just as much if not more fun on that one.

Aqua Jump Slide 4
My 8 year old son loves this slide. He has been the only child to play on it and like the other reviewers have stated, it would probably work best if placed on a down-hill slant instead of on a flat surface. He never made it past the jump into the pool.

Everything worked the first time we set it up and my son played for hours.

Take-down is a bit of a hassle but the enjoyment my son gets from it is well worth it!

For the price, it's a bargain!

This toy is did not last passed the first usage. 2
I ordered the Aqua Jump Slide and the Wave Racer Slide. My grandkids had fun with the slides but on the second time using them the seam where the slide is hooked to the hose busted on the Aqua Jump Slide. I was very disappointed because we only got one usage out of it.

Fun but not durable 2
We purchased the slide even after reading the reviews about seams popping. We thought we would just be careful. The seams holding the tube the water flows into are not strong enough and we too popped the seams the very first day. We have gorilla taped the whole seam but the water makes its way through that too.

Not so happy 2
This slip n slide came out of the box with a hole in it! We fixed it but the patch didn't work all that well. The kids were still able to use it and they liked it, but it didn't work the best because of the hole. The ramp didn't work that well either. Overall not very satisfied. It gave the kids some fun but it could have been better!

Great letter teacher, phonics, etc. lots of fun 5
My grand daughter loves this and Running on Zero, one for letter skills, the other for math. Both are fun, and teach the child. They challenge your child to try harder, for a better score, even though there's no grading involved (the way it should be)

Letterpillar - doesn't stack up to other Leapster games 2
While my 3 yr old and 5 yr old play this game some, it doesn't compare to the other cartridges we own. There is only one game on the cartridge. It is simple, and I'm not convinced it has much educational value, as do most of the other Leapster games we have. I recommend you buy the Draw & Write or the Letter Factory. My children fight / "take turns" over those two games and they are educational.

Great Beginner Game 4
My son received the Leapster system for his 4th birthday as a gift. It comes with this game. While this game isn't the most challenging, my son enjoys it. I am not sure at what level the previous reviewers children are at, but my son doing very well at school. Maybe they are academically beyond him. He knows all of his letters, their sounds, and can read three letter words. He can also write out all of the letters in the alphabet, uppper and lower. So while this game isn't extremely challenging, he still found it fun. I haven't found controlling the letterpillar to be difficult at all, as a previous reviewer said. The arrow buttons on the control respond fine when controlling the letterpillar. I think this game was great as a "free" game with the system, because it allowed him to get used to using the controller. And my son isn't electronically deprived. He uses our personal computer all of the time to play games. He also has a V-Smile with other games. We wanted this as a portable gaming system. Again, it was a good first, free game. I have nothing bad to say about it considering I didn't have to pay for it.

Very dissapointing 1
We bought this game for our 3 and 5 year old - they do not like it at all! It is a very boring game and difficult to maneuver the caterpillars - don't waste your money!!! It kept their attention for about 5 minutes and then they moved on. They love the SpiderMan, Nemo, and Disney Princess cartridges the best!

The most boring Leapster game yet. 1
I bought my [...] daughter this game yesterday, she played it for 2 minutes and hated it. I played it for 5 minutes and now understand why she didn't like it. There is only one game on the cartridge- you pick one of three letterpillar faces and then you are supposed to use the arrow pad to guide the creature to eat letters. Level one has 1 capital letter and 1 number on the screen, if you eat the number the letterpillar gets sick and it tells you to eat the letter. Once you eat the letter, another one appears, and so on. If you run into the wall or a brick, the creature dies and after the creature dies three times, your game is over. We have the Kindergarten cartridge and the Disney Princess Cartridge and both of those have multiple games on each one and are so much more interesting to play. Don't waste your money on this one!
