User Ratings and Reviews

3 Stars Good for toddlers learning about animals
My daughter is one and loves animals and magnets, but these don’t hold her attention for very long. I like them for teaching her about animals and animal sounds, but she won’t play with them on her own. They are also too thin for her to easily take off the refrigerator and put them back on.

I also bought the LeapFrog Fridge Farm Magnetic Animal Set, and that’s much better for keeping her entertained on her own. (The pieces are chunkier and have optional sounds and music).

Overall, good images of animals but probably good for kids who are a little older.

5 Stars Very colorful and nice
I bought these for my children for Christmas. They are very nice. I think they would be very good for teaching animal names and sounds etc. If your child is teething it wouldn’t be very good as the front is just glosed paper glued to wood and then to magnet and will tear if chewed on. They stick to the refridge fine aand don’t slide around. They are not as fun to paly with as the abc magnets that are under this brand because you can only do so much with animals but they are enjoyed as well.

4 Stars Just One Complaint
My only complaint is that the images are glued-on paper without a laminate layer over them. If your kids tend to dunk things, stick things in their mouths, etc, the images will not last long. Very cute though, nice variety of animals, and insofar as they have lasted my kids love them.

5 Stars Fun Toy
My little girl loves these. She can now name all of the animals and she enjoys re-arranging the on the fridge.

5 Stars Activity center on the frig
Fine quality magnet toys for a small play station on your frig is the perfect extra activity for a small child. Although these are recommended for older children, I use these with my grandchild at age 1, with high supervision. I sit next to this location to make sure nothing goes in her mouth. Since small children like making animal sounds and communicating by pointing, this makes for a nice game between grownup and child.

I was also happy to see that even the box is strongly made and splinter free for gathering pieces for the back and forth play.I would recommend it with the caution that children must be supervised at younger ages.

5 Stars Great for the Money!
My son is very happy with this game! You can’t beat the price either considering all Didj games sell for $[...] in store. Definitely would recommend this game and others on the Didj System!

5 Stars Fantastic!
Santa and Grandma together got this for my son, who is almost 6. He can’t put it down!! He loves his Digi and “Fists of Foam” is his favourite by far. It’s great for kids who are fairly new to the hand-held game world. It didn’t take long for him to get the feel of it, and he’s really into learning the math areas. I love that the game rewards him and gives him the chance to find the right answer rather than only give him once chance! I am a huge fan of the Digi and a long time fan of LeapFrog. If you want to limit the exposure to all those kill em and blood & gut games with no value, but want the gaming experience-please get one of these for your kid. It’s perfect for 5-9 year olds. I was worried that I would have to sit there and read out directions and questions the entire time, but I was happy to see that the game reads out questions and ofers “hints”.

5 Stars Great math, geometry and fraction teaching game
Daughter sticks to this game better than any other. She has gone further in this game levels wise as well, and we had to download all the lessons so far for it as a result. If we had one game for her on the Didj, this is the one.

5 Stars Very Pleased!
My daughter loves Spongebob, therefore she loves this game. I have to help her with the little math that is in the game because she’s in kindergarten, but other than that the game is easy enough for her to play alone. I wish there was more math in the game but as long as she loves the game that’s what’s important. Also I wasn’t sure what to expect in the quality of the graphics and to my and my boyfriend’s surprise (who happens to play a lot of video games) the graphics were very good especially for the price we paid.

3 Stars Weaker of the math set
Santa brought my son a Didj along with the Spongebob and Indiana Jones games. He has logged significantly more hours on the Indiana Jones game as well as a new one – Clone Wars. Even though Sponge Bob is his favorite TV show, the game doesn’t appear to be as engaging as the other two.

LeapFrog Learn and Groove Musical Table

It’s a learning fiesta for your little one. This interactive, bilingual activity table engages and entertains your baby for hours. There are songs, melodies, twinkling lights and real instrument sounds, plus lots of things to spin, roll, slide, open and close. The table plays over 40 songs and melodies so your baby stays entertained while exploring. When babies turn the center page, the activity table switches modes and transforms musical discoveries into learning activities where each instrument plays a learning song. The Learn and Groove Musical Table also helps your child develop the motor skills needed for learning to stand. Contoured grips make “pulling up” a piece of cake. As babies learn to stand, their little hands can stay busy with reaching, grabbing and pulling. Measures 23″ x 5.5″ x 15.5″. Requires 3 “AA” batteries (not included).

3 Stars The legs are not detachable
Don’t be fooled! You can use this on the floor or up on its legs. But once you put the legs on they do not come off. I contacted LeapFrog and they said they are modifying the packaging to indicate this. I had planned to return it but with the legs on it would require a large box and was just more of a hassle than I bargained for. So I kept it but was sorely disappointed. Had I known this I would have bought something else, or at least waited until my grandbaby was able to stand before I put the legs on. Either way, I can’t remove them. A search of the net resulted in some directions on how to remove the legs but I felt like I was going to break them.

5 Stars It gets used everyday
This table has less annoying music than many, and my 11 month old daughter goes over to it at least once an hour and pushes buttons to make music. Two and 3 year old children seem fascinated with this also, and the ability to take the legs off and use a a toy for little crawlers make me glad that in a our low-toy household, we have this toy. We bought it used and find it in great shape.

3 Stars BEWARE of unstable legs
This table is fun, but buyer beware regarding the legs on this toy! First, many of the pics of this item are NOT of this item! The table with the wide feet and blue lights around the center is an older item which is no longer made (I tried the older version at a friend’s house and loved it). The wide feet provided a wonderfully stable base for this toy. However, the new version (with red lights) has unstable legs which are prone to tipping on your child. The legs are also NOT detachable on all units. I was told by Leap Frog that the only way to know whether they are detachable is to unbox the toy and look on the bottom of the item for a “press here” indicator where the legs attach. Seriously?? I’m not sure of a store that is going to allow me to open all the items to find the one with detachable legs! That said, I have the one with the NON-detachable legs and mistakenly attached them BEFORE my child was able to stand independently. Any attempts to use this toy to pull to stand result in this toy tipping onto my child. UGH! So, this toy requires VERY close supervision (as in my holding onto my child while he plays with it in order to avoid him pulling it over onto himself). Other than that, the noises are a bit annoying with a very jazzy lady belting out sounds and songs, so I typically leave it in the OFF position. Why oh why can’t toy makers make SIMPLE cause and effect toys with short bursts of sounds rather than these long, annoying, never-ending songs and sounds? Oh, how I miss the simpler times!

5 Stars My son loves it
My son loves this toy. He has had it for over a year now. I am really surprised how long the batteries last in this unit. A nice feature is that the legs are removable. This allows the music table to be placed on the floor or a tabletop, or to easily be stored away for future use.

3 Stars She never plays with it
It seems like a great toy, and it is very durable, but my daughter wants nothing to do with it. It has just sat in the play room since she was 1 year old.

5 Stars Oliva book for the Tag system
This loveable story is a great first book for the Tag system. It is entertaining as it teaches beginning sounds and words. Two thumbs up!

5 Stars LeapFrog Tag Storybook – Olivia
My 3-year old daughter loves this book. Although the book is rated for 4 year old, she is still able to enjoy. She clicks on all the pictures and is amused for quite a while. We read together and she touches the dots. Great entertainment for children.

5 Stars My daughter’s favorite
We had actually never read Olivia until we got it as a Tag book. What a delightful story! I like that the narrator encourages the kids to be active and dance and sing along with Olivia.

5 Stars Great Book!
Loved this book and now love it’s addition with the TAG products.

Cleverly written to amuse both parent and child.

5 Stars Best prices.
We priced these in our local stores and on the internet and the price was the best we found.

4 Stars Tag book
I bought this product for my autistic niece. She caught on quick on how to use the tag pen. I look forward to more books. I think this is an awesome toy

5 Stars Counting, vocabulary, reading, rhymes, much fun
My little girl is having lots of fun with the Tag books and Miss Spider’s is one of her favorites. Of course, she can count to twelve and she knows most of the words but reading practice is precious and she’s always happy when she manages to read the text so that it actually rhymes – she’s into painting and poetry these days.

As a Tag book, there are lots of interactive surprises on every page and there are a couple of big intensive play areas at the end. And, did I mention that the illustrations are absolutely gorgeous?

Can’t go wrong with this little book. For the 4-6 years olds. MUST have the Leapfrog Tag system or 80% of the fun is lost.
