Graduate with Honors from MU
LeapFrog Disney•Pixar Monsters University Learning Game is an imaginative world where kids can explore and learn using their natural curiosity, as well as navigate “scary” new skills like logic and deductive reasoning as they follow the fun hijinks of popular monsters from the movie Monsters University. LeapFrog Learning Expert Clement says that, “Problem solving is a skill that we apply each and every day in all sorts of situations from social problem solving to solving mathematics and science problems in school.”

Frighteningly Fun Activities
Kids will love to play two mini-games: Identify pairs of matching monsters memorabilia before time runs out; and use deductive reasoning skills to find the monster that holds the hidden key. As they play, kids can unlock valuable shortcuts, find Scare Cards and collect dorm decor. Use your LeapPad learning tablet, LeapsterGS, or Leapster Explorer gaming handheld to enjoy additional activities like Monster Maker. Then put Monster Maker creations to the test and use your imaginary monster to sneak through the Child’s Bedroom Simulator, raise the fear meter and earn the loudest scream to win!

LeapFrog’s Innovative Approach to Learning
Kids can progress through 24 game levels of gameplay. To build problem-solving skills, kids create strategies to guide characters though mind-bending mazes, avoiding enemies to reach a strategic destination and advancing from level to level. LeapFrog Game Designer Reed says, “We included problem-solving pathways in the game, since they are the perfect basis for a game of tactics and discovery. Children love the feeling of sneaking around undetected. When they play a full level and the judges never even spot them, they feel sooo sneaky.”

What’s In The Box?
Box includes a LeapFrog Explorer game cartridge (compatible with LeapFrog LeapPad Explorer Learning Tablets, LeapsterGS Explorer and Leapster Explorer gaming systems, sold separately) and a Parent Guide.

Learning to Read is BIG Fun with Clifford

Clifford loves story time! Help Emily Elizabeth earn stories for Clifford’s library by playing four educator-designed learning games that build essential skills for early readers. Join the lovable dog with a BIG heart and more favorite characters from the award-winning Clifford TV show on PBS Kids for practice with letters, rhyming, word building and more. The LeapFrog Scholastic learning game Clifford Ready-to-Read is designed specifically for children ages 3 to 5 and works with all LeapPad learning tablets, LeapsterGS and Leapster Explorer (sold separately).

Earn 10 stories for Clifford’s library and practice reading independently or with Emily Elizabeth.

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.
Learn early reading skills through four games that feature over 250 rounds of gameplay.

Long Vowel Fundamentals, Phonics and Fun!

The LeapReader Learn to Read Book Set, Volume 2 is the perfect set of books to introduce your child to long vowel sounds. The set comes with six books, each book focuses on a long vowel sound and the final book is for practice and review. Touch the LeapReader pen to the page to hear words sounded out, and reinforce the connection between letters and the long vowel sounds they make. Reinforce letter recognition and spelling skills with 60 words that feature long vowel sounds.

“Dan’s Game” features the long vowel “a” sound.

“The Bike Race” features the long vowel “i” sound.

“At the Lake in June” features the long vowel “u” sound.

“I Spy in the Sky” features the long vowel “y” sound.

The Leapfrog LeapReader Learn to Read, Volume 2 Book Set works with Tag Reading System and LeapReader Reading & Writing System (sold separately). Explore all of the fun and educational LeapReader book sets: Book set 1: Short Vowels. Book Set 2: Long Vowels, Silent E & Y, Book Set 3: Consonants, Book Set 4: Advanced Vowels. The Early Reading Series is designed to build core phonics skills and support children as they proceed at their own pace toward independent reading. The Early Reading Series is recommended for children ages 4-6 years old.

Teaches:
Long vowels: Children learn to read and spell words with regular short vowel patterns (bed) and regular long vowel patterns (bake, meet).

Phonics skills: To read independently, children must understand the relationship between the sounds in spoken words and the letters that represent those sounds.

Sight words: Sight words are words that cannot be sounded out (the, where, etc.), so they must be learned by sight and memorized.

Rhyming: Children learn that rhyming words have the same ending sounds and often share spelling patterns, which helps develop vocabulary.

Grows with your Child

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.

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.
