Customer Review: GREAT PRODUCT!
Summary: 5 Stars
I was having a hard time getting my 4 year old to practice writing his letters. He got bored easily with it. I attempted every practice writing book, I bought the 1st grade pencils, I tried markers to make it more fun for him to write, I tried a chalk board, I tried the dry erase marker board, I printed out lettering sheets off the internet, but nothing worked too well. He never before has took a dislike to learning, he has always been one to pick up on new things quick. He has known all his letters since he was 2 years old, but when it comes right down to writing them, that part was'nt his thing. I happened to see this writing desk and when I saw that it had the electronic screen to show how to write each letter as well as the magic erase board to practice lettering I immediately knew this might help my son to want to learn to write. He loves this writing desk! I figured he might be too old for this at first, it looked like some of his toys he had when he was younger, but it says on the box 4+ (although it would be great even for younger children around the age of 3) but it also has 3 letter words to spell, learning to write cursive writing, lower case letters and upper case letters. Very impressive that leap shows you how to write each letter. That helped my son so much. When I tried to show him he could'nt see exactly the way I was doing it, but on the leap writing desk it shows you simple steps at a time to easily master writing each letter! Thank you Leap Frog for all the wonderful products!!!
Right after I purchased this I also purchased the Leap Pad Writing and Microphone system- that is also a WONDERFUL product! Now with Leap frog's help my son loves writing and within a couple of days he was writing 3 letter words he learned from the writing desk and leap pad learning system. My son will be well prepared when he starts school next year. He even is practicing a few cursive letters! Now I am no longer begging him to practice writing, he loves to practice his letters now!
Description of LeapFrog Phonics Writing Desk
Learn to write your ABCs on an electronic lap-sized desk. Featuring six innovative games that make learning interactive and fun for your child, the Phonics Writing desk helps kids practice their writing, phonics and spelling skills, including how to spellThis electronic writing desk teaches kids the alphabet, letter sounds, letter formation, spelling, and word creation in a fun, interactive format. Kids can choose from six games: letters, a letters quiz, phonics, a phonics quiz, spelling, and "create-a-word." In the letters game, children push a letter to hear its name and see how it is formed on the LCD screen; players can also write their own letters on the "magic" writing screen. In the spelling game, children learn to spell simple words. In the phonics game, children first hear a letter and then are given a short word as an example. Along the way, the always-helpful LeapFrog "coach" offers lots of cheerful hints so children won't get stuck in any of the exercises. Additional features include an automatic shut-off, an oversize pullout handle, a variety of comical sounds for incorrect answers, and a two-position volume control. --Tami Horiuchi
