Parent Guide & Instructions
This guide contains important information. Please keep it for future reference.
Dear Parent,
We at LeapFrog know that you are your child’s most important
teacher. Our goal is to help you build an environment for your child
that is rich in experiences—one that encourages discovery and fosters
learning success.
We have developed learning toys that are designed to teach
fundamental skills such as math, language arts, science and social
studies to Grade School students. Our products feature a hands-on,
multi-sensory approach to learning. Children can see, hear, touch, and
interact with our learning toys. The products are designed to adapt to
the skill level of each child, and provide positive feedback that
encourages children to explore and learn at their own pace.
LeapFrog
®
learning toys are designed to grow alongside your child
through each stage of development. All are made with the same
playful spirit that promotes a lifelong love of learning. For additional
information on how to make learning fun and effective, visit our
web site (www.leapfrog.com), where you’ll find tips from parents and
educators. We hope you’ll join us there.
Sincerely,
Mike Wood
