Product Description
Now parents and kids can both feel good about time spent playing electronic games with the Leapster Learning System by LeapFrog. An exciting library of educational games (sold separately) turn this handheld device into a conduit of exciting learning adventures that teaches reading, math, critical thinking, vocabulary and more. Kids can play fun games, read electronic books, create cool art and watch interactive videos. Color display on backlit screen is gentle on the eyes while the jack for optional headphones is gentle on other people's ears. Ages 4 to 10 years. Imported.

Here is one handheld gaming system that both parents and kids will be able to agree upon. The Leapster Learning Game System takes the brain-building principles that Leapfrog laid out in its earlier electronic learning devices (which have an interactive book format) and applies them to a video-game format. Leapster draws kids in with familiar video game templates—all of which have a secret weapon: a built-in learning component. LeapFrog hopes that kids will become so engaged in the gaming aspects and familiar television and movie characters offered by this toy that they won’t even notice that they’re learning and reinforcing valuable reading, math, and language skills.

Was one of the unlucky ones by Love to Hike (Connecticut) 1 Stars
November 23, 2009
Purchased the Leapster in November for Christmas last year for my five year old son despite some of the negatives reviews I read. My son used his Leapster for 4 hours before it shut down and never worked again. By the time I read the warranty, 2 months later (we moved and took a vacation in that time) it had expired per the manual. Six months later (I didn't want to just throw it away) and I find out from a friend that there is an extended warranty that they don't tell you about. Called, shipped my defective unit out at my expense for a replacement. The replacement lasted only two hours longer before it also died. Called the company again, but the extend warranty has expired. Yes, I did everything they asked...new batteries, wiped the battery connections, etc... Also, my son is VERY good with his toys and I even let him use my laptop and the wii. Never have we had a problem with any of his toys before. WILL NEVER BUY ANY LEAPSTER AGAIN. Now I'm out over $100 or more for the cost of the leapster and all the games we bought for it that he never got to play with.

My little girl had one when she was 3, she is 8 now. I handed it down to my little boy at 3 and it and the games still worked untill a mishap. but it lasted for a long time and 2 kids.

I bought this for my great grandsons, age 9 andn 5 and they have not put the toy down since receiving it. Very great toy for learning and having fun as well. I would say it is great for any child this age group.

I can't easily rate this game, it was purchased at some distance from the recipient, our grandson (4,500 miles) and all I can say is that it was something on his wish list, it arrived on time and presumably in good condition, we'll only get to have a demonstration in December when we go over for Christmas.
