Pre-K & Kindergarten LeapPad Book: Stanley Surprise Safari

---

Customer Review:

Animal loving kid loves the Stanley Safari

While my youngest son hasn't really watched Stanley that much, he loves animals. We got this book for him for his 4th birthday and he has spent many, many hours playing with it.

Great for Animal Loving Kids!

My four-year old son loves this book. He plays with his LeapPad constantly and is good at changing the books/cartridges by himself. You only need the animal cards that come with the book for the last two pages; the rest of the book is typical LeapPad with games and music. The cards are small and could be easily lost, but I found that if you just store them in a small ziploc bag, it's not a problem. Also, the set comes with one WILD card that can replace any of the other cards, so if you lose an animal, just replace it with the WILD card when you need to. Kids who love the show "Stanley" or who just like to learn about animals will love this LeapPad book.

Operation Brain Surgery

Sometimes you can't help but wonder about the original meeting where the idea for a toy was first introduced. Because in order to get Operation Brain Surgery produced, someone must have sat down in a room somewhere and explained that they were proposing a game based on brain surgery. And that they were serious. As strange as that meeting must surely have been, the game is actually a lot of fun in a bizarre kind of way. In fact, its very strangeness probably makes it even more fun. The patient (same big-nosed guy from the original Operation game) gives encouragement and ribbing to players throughout the game. The object is to remove objects such as a bird (for "bird brain"), train (for "train of thought"), and egg (for "egg head"). As in Operation, it takes a steady hand to avoid upsetting the patient and win the game. --John Moe

Customer Review:

Operation Brain Surgery Fun!

My 2 and 4 year olds really enjoy this game! they like that they can press the heads nose themselves and root around in the brain for the pieces they're looking for! a good game for learning matching skills and for taking turns.

Decent

It's a decent game but it's nowhere near as fun as Hasbro's "Colonoscopy," Milton Bradley's "Hi! Ho! Root Canal-i-o" or any of the games they play in the burn ward at Mt. Auburn's Hospital on Central Street.

OPERATON BRAIN SURGERY

I purchased this for my grandson age 5. He enjoys trying to match the cards with the pieces before time runs out.

Star Wars Episode III: Darth Vader Voice Changer Helmet

With just the donning of this helmet you too may command the powers of the Dark Side! Or, at least, you’ll take on the role of the most notorious scourge the Jedi have ever known: Darth Vader. Once you’ve put on this perfect replica of Vader’s trademark mask and chest plate you’ll find yourself in command of not just his tell-tale breathing and five actual movie quotes but also the ability to speak in Darth Vader’s menacing voice. The helmet itself is constructed of hard plastic and can be adjusted to comfortably fit children to young adults (though older adults may be unable to get the mask on). The attached chest plate lets you command the sound effects with just the touch of a button. This unit not only comes with full instructions but also batteries so you’re ready to go right out of the box. In no time you'll be striking fear into the hearts of do-gooders everywhere! --Chip Quinn

Customer Review:

Voice changer

My nephew REALLY wanted this for his birthday and has enjoyed it thoroughly. The helmet is a little hard to adjust to fit his little head but it's doable.

It's Fun

This mask will fit all comers. It's as much fun as you think it will be. The voice changer works well and is very easy to use. I would say if your a fan of Star Wars this is a must have.

LeapPad Game - Mind Wars Jr. Interactive Game

Customer Review:

Wonderful way to play and learn!

I gave this to my 6 year old on her "gotcha day" and she plays with it daily. She prefers to play with me and not alone, but it's a great game. Next year I'm likely to go the next level for her. I highly recommend this as a great game!

They Can Play Alone

My children (4 & 6)love this game. It is great because no reading is necessary. The game asks the questions and even repeats them when necessary. While my kids don't know all the topics covered they enjoy the game. The fact that the game makes sure they move the correct number of spaces is great too. I definitely recommend this game and I will probably buy the next level of it.

What a wonderful product!!!

We bought this for my 6 yr old daughter who will be starting 1st grade in the fall and she loves it, whether she plays by herself or she challenges someone, it's GREAT, I'd recommend it to everyone.

Only 1 bad thing, when you have the leap pade storage case, there's really not a place to keep this, so we've ended up keeping box (which is very slim) to keep it in.
