The new LEAP-PAD Explorer tablet for children has been created by the award winning company LEAP FROG.  It is a top of the line learning tablet for children ages 4 to 9.  In a society that is becoming more technologically advanced and tablet orientated, teaching your children to become more comfortable with these tools could be good for their development.  Most breakthroughs coming in the near future will be coming through the avenues of smartphones and tablets.  The LEAP-PAD Explorer comes loaded with 100+ Cartridges and Apps.  These Cartridges & Apps were designed to inspire learning and creativity in children.  The LEAP-PAD being a learning tablet, it’s available Apps will teach: School Skills,  Creativity, and Life Skills.  Your child will be able to take pictures, add effects, or even record video with sound.  With the LEAP-PAD tablet your child will have the ability to load and play E-books which can make reading a more fun experience.  The books are visual, virtual and interactive.  The screen is basically a touch-screen in which you can turn pages with your fingers or an included LEAP-PAD pen, like an IPAD or any other tablet.

The LEAP-PAD Explorer Specs allow it to come with:

  • a 5-inch, 480 x 272 pixel (16:9) touchscreen, and 2GB of built in storage.

The LEAP-PAD covers a wide spectrum of childhood learning subjects which include: reading, mathematics, science, geography, art, music, language, culture, health and more.  This tablet is not a toy but a tool to be used to enhance the learning capabilities and comprehension of your child across the board.  It even has the ability to monitor your child’s progress and adjust the interaction between it and a child based on his / her’s learning curve.  This tool is a far cry from the toys and books I received at this age.  The saga and journey of the tablet continues on.
