Editorial Review
What's really cute? A kid that can't count to 20, but really, really wants to. LeapPad's multisensory, experiential interface makes kids--even those who aren't old enough for school--want to count as well as big kids do. With Tad Goes Shopping, kids see, hear, say, and touch throughout the story, retaining new information, and enhancing learned information. At the same time, little Tad helps his friends correctly identify and pronounce numbers and learn to count like real pros. In short, the book teaches the basic building blocks of math readiness (using more/less than, matching, shapes, and color concepts).
It's simple to use (just insert the cartridge and book into a LeapPad, and use the attached stylus to hear information), but this system is an innovative technology that provides entertaining, effective learning, designed by a Stanford-trained reading expert. The system has also been credited with the TMA's Educational Toy of the Year and People's Choice awards.
Two notes: Make sure the LeapPad book you get is appropriate for the child's educational level, and know that some LeapBooks (like this one) work on both LeapPad and LeapPad Pro, but some only work with one system. --Diane Beall
When the Frog family goes shopping at the Hop and Shop store, each family member chooses their favorite items to add to the cart by sorting, classifying and estimating. They count aisles as they shop for crafts, sporting goods, shoes and socks, garden supplies, candy and toys. Tad wants to buy a little bear - will he find it anywhere?\n\nKids just place the book on the LeapPad® player, pop in the cartridge, and touch any page with the Magic Pen to bring learning to life. This book also works with the LeapPad Plus Writing Learning System and the Quantum Pad® Learning System.\n\n\nWhat it Teaches\n\nNumbers and counting\nMore or less\nSorting and classifying sets of objects\nShape identification\nColor identification

Very educational and fun too! February 15, 2002
By apoem TOP 500 REVIEWERVINE™ VOICE
Durability: Educational: Fun:
Each animal on every page has something neat to say. Clicking on different items causes something fun to happen- a game, a funny sound, a puzzle, or a song.
This is a good review of number recognition, counting, shapes and sizes (big and small), same and different.
I can't say that this is my son's favorite LeapPad Book, but he certainly plays with it quite a bit.
IF your child can already recognize numbers, count to ten and knows his shapes this may be a bit elementary for your child. However, my two year old has found it challenging enough to keep him entertained and interested for an hour (really!) and has enjoyed this book over and over. For him this is a great review/teaching lesson since he still in the process of learning numbers.

Mot much of a challenge compared to My First Leap Pad July 11, 2005
By Allison
I bought this book for my son's LeapPad as part of a bundle. He is 4 1/2 and up until recently had been using a My First Leap pad. When it broke, we replaced it with a "regular one." I had expected the activities to get harder, but this book is pretty basic. All but the very last page of activities deals with numbers 1 through 5. The final activity includes numbers up to 14 and is the only one my son really likes.The story is very simple and finishes with a little song. My son has always been more attracted to the games than the stories on these things. We discovered with some dismay that the "Aisle 1" page really only deals with the number 1 (kids are "challenged to find "one" blue shirt, one pink bow, etc.). You can guess what happens on Aisles 2-5.While I can't fault the game for having good activities for teaching kids how to recognize what the number symbols look like and for getting very basic counting exposure, I really think they could have made this book more challenging. I would recommend this one ONLY if you have a 3-4 year old who has never had a My First LeapPad and who does not know how to recognize number symbols at all.

Great book! January 16, 2003
By B. Leach
Durability: Educational: Fun:
My three and a half year old likes this book a lot. Since she already knows her numbers, colours, and shapes, she can complete the games on each page with no problems. The games are not so hard that a child who does not already know numbers cannot enjoy the book. I would say that this one is a must have.
