LeapFrog LeapsterGS Explorer Reviews
| 47 of 48 people found the following review helpful  So Happy to Have Given This to My 4-Year-Old Son!, By Musical Mama (Casselberry, FL USA) - See all my reviews = Durability: = Fun: = Educational: This review is from: LeapFrog LeapsterGS Explorer (Toy) Absolutely a 5-star product, and so worth the money.For the past six months, my son has lovingly played with my husband's old, cracked-glass iPod, building an impressive understanding of what each app can do. I received an email from LeapFrog inviting me to have a look at the Leapster Explorer GS. With my son's 4th birthday approaching and without knowing what to give him, I decided to click on the link to the demo video with my son next to me. He said, "Mom, I want that!" So we bought it for him, hoping it wouldn't be played with for three minutes and discarded for the old iPod. It wasn't. He wouldn't put it down all day. The next morning, he woke up and went right for it and played it all day again, and for at least an hour every day since. (It's been ten days.) If this were nothing but a video game toy, then I would gently nudge him away from playing it after a while, but it's so much more than that. He loves the built-in camera. He'll sneak up beside me, and...

I set up the Leapster GS last night for my son's birthday. Today, while playing with it, it consistently went blank or froze when using a couple of the apps. The camera feature did not work at all - the only way to'get out' is to power the game on and off. We have the Leapster Explorer and the Leapster Leappad and I have never had these types of issues. Either this was not tested thoroughly or they produced some lemons in the manufacturing process. Update : There was an issue with the software and Leapfrog customer service gave me information on how to repair the software from the Connect application. It is still not clear to me why it was bugged to begin with OR why the repair files were not downloaded from Connect when I intially set up the GS. The customer service rep said that repair files sometimes don't get downloaded due to internet connection issues?? Additionally, it is not clear to me why instructions could not be found online...

DS (5) got a Leappad for Christmas last year and my youngest DS got a GS for his third birthday. I know that the age range says 4-9 for the GS, but I feel 3 is fine. Especially if you travel or have an older child with a Leapfrog or other game system. My 3 year old likes the smaller size of the GS, I think it is easier for him to hold.We have an iPad and iPhones, but my boys like their leapfrog systems better. They still play a few games on them, but like the content from Leapfrog better. Leapfrog lately has added a bunch of games and other apps to their store. We have really been enjoying them. I usually buy a $20 app card when it gets $15 to $17 on Amazon and wait for some sort of promotion in the App store. You have to check the leapfrog site for sales. If you already have one Leappad or Explorer in the family you can download games to 3 different Leappad or Explorer devices. There have... Read more |
