Celebrity Parents Leapster Explorer: Cool, New Handheld for Kids Leapfrog's new touchscreen handheld has a bigger screen and cool accessories. By Staff Author Published on September 21, 2010 04:00 PM Share Tweet Pin Email Keep your child’s brain cells charged this fall with Leapfrog’s new handheld Leapster Explorer ($69). Not only does it offer fun, engaging learning games, but it also features LeapFrog’s biggest screen yet — complete with Flash and 3D graphics. Created for kids aged 4 to 9, the touchscreen device also comes with an attached stylus (so your little ones won’t lose it), as well as, access to a library of more than 40 games and activities, featuring popular characters from Toy Story, Disney Princesses, The Penguins of Madagascar, Dora the Explorer, and more. We love that you can personalize your child’s learning experience and customize content. Each time your child plays skill levels are automatically adjusted so subjects are increasingly challenging. We do wish it came with more pre-loaded content though. Connecting to LeapWorld, the online learning site, to download games and activities was a cinch. Parents can always keep track of what their kids are playing and learning through the LeapFrog Learning Path. For more fun, add the click-on camera accessory which turns the Explorer into a camera and video recorder. Through Sept. 30, you can also get free shipping and a complimentary Leaplet Download Card Pack (to download games or ebooks) when you order your device at Leapfrog.com. — Nancy Horn Related Articles Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck's Kids: Everything They've Said About Parenting The 4 Best Smart Thermostats of 2023 The 30 Best Gifts for Kids of 2023, According to Savvy Tastemakers The 15 Best Advent Calendars for Kids of 2022 The 10 Best Space Heaters of 2023, Tested and Reviewed The Ultimate Guide to Streaming Services That Carry Live TV Channels The 14 Best Advent Calendars for Adults of 2022 The 8 Best Dyson Hair and Home Products The Best Christmas Movies to Stream on Hulu in 2022 The 10 Best Vacuum Cleaners, Tested and Reviewed YouTube TV Review: Can the Streaming Service Really Replace Cable?
