I liked the way you broke down your technobabble so those of us who are tech-tarded could figure out what you meant too!

I have seen these out and about and love them. I love how a child can read along and be encouraged to read and see the words too. Too me its a great booster and I love the addons are not expensive.

What I found most interesting is that “the device will either read the page aloud to your child or play an interactive game based on the current page in the book”. My kids love any type of game that is interactive to what they are doing. This Tag Reading System really sounds like fun and I love that it shows them that reading can be fun. Thanks so much.

main entry: I found the fact that you mentioned about the rewards the unit can provide to the kids very interesting and it gives them a further extra if you will to stay interested in what it teaches them. I love the
idea they can print out the doorknob hangers or certificates, or mazes by using LeapFrog’s Connect software. My grandson loves mazes and what a great fun tool to let them be encouraged to learn. He is 5 yrs and would love this. thanks for the offer.

entry #1..I enjoyed your review of the Tag Reader and was glad that you reviewed the negative as well as the positive things about it. It sounds like my little grandson would love it…his mother has a program that she is using to teach him to read and I think the Tag Reader would just be a fun way for him to explore and “play” with the books. He is read to and they make regular trips to the library so the Tag Reader would not replace any current reading activities but would be just another way for my grandson to interact with books.

Your kids can even touch on an individual word on the page and hear it read back to them. You can drag the reader like a pen across the words on the page and it will read them slowly so your kids can hear each word individually if they want to.

I love the technology involved in these amazing readers, especially the infared camera that knows what page, book, etc.! To be honest, I love pretty much all of the LEAPFROG products my kids grew up with them.

I loved how honest the review was.
I honestly didn’t think that the LeapFrog learning system could teach your child to read either, but it seems like a GREAT product for children who already enjoy reading, which I did at an early age.

Rosey says:

I learned that while there are many great points, the storage capacity is small: The current 16 MB model only holds five stories at a time.

I learned about the infared camera. . . The infrared camera reads these incredibly tiny dots on the pages and translates them into words, sound effects and music that are played through the “reader”. Thank you

I like that by using some special optical patterns and image processing techniques, the Tag reader always knows exactly which book it’s reading from, what page it is on, and where on the page it is.

I found it interesting that everything on the page is touchable by the “reader” which provides great voices, sound effects, and music that go along with the picture that was touched.
Lauralee Hensley says:

I’m glad you tested it out on boys, since they are harder to seem to get to get interested in educational aspects of life at an early age. Girls just seem easier to get motivated towards learning activities.
Bridget Combs says:

I found out that LeapFrog has packed this small handheld device with so much amazing technology, including a tiny sophisticated infrared camera that “reads” the letters, words and symbols on the pages, a 32-bit RISC processor, and a DSP driven stereo audio system.
