Since it’s the holiday season and many people are visiting me regarding my previous review of the Leapfrog Little Leaps system, I wanted to post a little update on how the Leapfrog system has held up over the past three months.

The controller has taken a beating, but nothing has chipped, broken, or stopped working. I haven’t had to replace the batteries yet, despite his heavy use of the buttons and repeat play of the games. He loves both sides of the controller and actually prefers to play one of the baby games, Play & Move over the toddler game, Leap Ahead (even though he is over 2 years old now).

The DVD’s are, like most, easy to scratch, so some of the games do jump around a little (my little monkey climbs the shelves to get at the DVD’s…. being shoved into a VCR isn’t recommended for any DVD, ahem) but if you lock them up, you’ll be just fine.

I’d definitely encourage you to check it out, especially for younger toddlers/older babies who can benefit from both the baby games and then the toddler games - might be a nice Christmas idea and it’s a nice break from the millions of toys….
