    Grows with your Child
    The sturdy, plastic-molded, brightly colored table sits flat on the floor for babies to play at while sitting. You can attach the table’s legs to adjust it to accommodate toddlers’ play while standing. And it offers plenty of activities at different levels of learning to keep your child entertained for these early developmental years. Your child will delight in spinning the maraca to hear a fun rendition of the ABC song; playing the colored piano keys to practice motor skills and learn about colors; moving the trombone’s slide to count to 10; and sliding the cello to learn about up and down. Kids can tap on the colorful drum and learn about colors and primary shapes, too. Then, by flipping the pages of the “book” to go from the Learning Mode to the Music Mode, kids can hear more than 40 songs and melodies, including nursery rhymes and fun individual instrument sounds that will have them singing and dancing.

    Plenty to Do, Lots to Learn
    With all of these activities, your child will exercise his or her memory and problem-solving skills with lots of things to push, pull, turn, open, and close. And with the flip of a switch, the songs and games switch from English to Spanish, offering a great introduction to foreign-language learning. The Learn & Groove Musical Table requires some assembly and needs 3 AA batteries for operation. Batteries are not included.

    Clifford Ready-to-Read Learning Game works with all LeapPad Kids’ Learning Tablets, LeapsterGS and Leapster Explorer.
    Curriculum That Goes Beyond Core Skills

    With Clifford Ready-to-Read children practice rhyming, identifying letters and matching letters to the sounds they make—skills that are related to, and may even help predict, a child’s later success with reading and writing. At higher levels children do word-building activities and benefit from recognizing how some words such as dig, pig and wig share common spelling patterns. As children begin to notice these patterns, they can more easily predict how to read or spell new words that they encounter, such as fig or rig.

    Personalized for Every Child

    Young preschoolers (age 3+) engage differently than their older counterparts, so LeapFrog develops content experiences to meet their specific learning needs. Clifford Ready-to-Read features simple gameplay designed to promote engagement with young audiences, including one-step directions, voiceovers and icons that light up to enable pre-readers to learn and play independently. Four mini-games are presented with easy-to-follow graphics. Gameplay begins at one of three learning levels that is personalized to the player’s age, and levels up or down based on each individual child’s performance, ensuring that the games are just right for each child who plays. Children can level down if they need more support, allowing the youngest players to explore at a comfortable challenge level.

    Fun with Their Favorite Characters

    For over 50 years, Clifford has been inspiring kids to learn and love to read. As one of the BIGGEST, most beloved and most iconic characters, Clifford uses humor and adventure to engage children in fun learning activities, so it’s no wonder he has found a home in LeapFrog’s learning library. When it comes to early literacy and reading, Clifford is top dog! With over 130 million books sold and one of the longest running kids programs on TV, Clifford is embraced by millions of parents, teachers and kids for his relatable stories and BIG heart.

    Learning Experts Create or Approve Every Experience

    All LeapFrog educational games are created or approved by an in-house team of learning experts for the most effective, age-appropriate learning experience. With Clifford Ready-to-Read, children practice rhyming, identifying letters and matching letters to the sounds they make—skills that help children succeed at reading and writing—in mini-games created by learning experts. Each mini-game uses innovative play patterns that reinforce understanding of letters and sounds. For example, children are prompted to build letters out of shapes, which develops early letter recognition and letter formation skills. They also take photos of rhyming objects, since research shows that children who are better at identifying rhymes and individual sounds in words often learn to read more quickly. This is because, as children recognize that rhyming words have the same ending sounds, they begin to notice that many rhyming words also share spelling patterns, which can help children learn how to read and spell. These educational mini-games feature more than 250 rounds of gameplay and a fun and educational reward: kids can earn 10 different stories for Clifford’s bookshelf, which they can then practice reading independently or with help from Emily Elizabeth.
