The BEST educational game I have bought my son September 14, 2009 Lolagranola (Rural Wisconsin) 22 out of 23 found this review helpful
My son is 6 years old, first grade and has a slight learning disability so we work extra hard on his sight words and sounding out letters, he doesn't have a whole lot of patience for it. However he loves star wars and he loves nintendo ds. On a whim I decided to buy the leapster and this game for it - hoping that he wouldn't call it a "learning game" and immediately dismiss it. Wowee did I luck out - he loves this game, can't play it enough.
The first day he had the game he was frustrated because he didn't know all the words and was running to me asking for help often. I encouraged him to try sounding out the letters and see how he could do. The second day I heard him sounding things out and trying to figure it out on his own. By day three he had mastered the game and was a general - oh was he exited - and mommy even more so - he is consistently reading three and four letter words from the game.
Thank you so much leapster - well worth the money spent.
My Grandson LOVES it! October 28, 2009 Karen M. (California USA) 12 out of 12 found this review helpful
I purchased this for my 5 year old grandson, who is in Kindergarten and just learning to read. He is also an avid Star Wars fan, so I thought this would be a fun way to help him with his basic reading skills. Well, this was the perfect choice because from the moment he opened it, he spentp practically every minute during the remainder of my visit using his Leapster with this game device. I spent some time doing it with him and was happy to see that it did, indeed, help him with his basic reading. All the while, making it FUN! Then his 8 year old sister wanted to play with it, too, so my worries that he would outgrow it too soon were quickly dispelled.
Leapster Star Wars September 2, 2009 Kimberly T. Palmer (Lancaster, PA USA) 13 out of 15 found this review helpful
I got this for my 4 year old. It's a little advanced for him but it is giving him something to work toward and he likes it since it's Star Wars.
Kids learn so much...but don't relized it because they're having so much fun!! December 2, 2009 G. Moody (Texas) 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
This game is worth it's weight in gold! I got this game for my 5 year old son, and he LOVES it! He enjoys it, because it allows him to feel like he's playing a traditional video game like his Dad's. I love it because he is learning the whole time!
He has come leaps and bounds in the last several weeks that he's been playing it. He has learned nearly all letter sounds, and has begun sounding out words on his own!! I am generally not a fan of video games, but this one is fun and educational!
Son cannot put it down. December 30, 2009 J. J. Marino (Rochester, New York) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
We bought this and LeapFrog® Leapster® 2 Learning Game System - Green for our son for Christmas. He is 6 and a big fan of Star Wars. He is the youngest in his first grade class and has the interest to read but is developmentally a bit behind them. This game makes learning fun, because he has little idea that he is even playing a game. Instead he is helping the rebels defeat the evil empire.
It is set around episode 5 or 6. I have played it myself a little bit to see what it was like. They throw in small little games to assist with the main mission. These games build on vocabulary and reading skills without being in your face. Its quite ingenious and a credit to Leap Frog for the way it is subtly done. So much so he has hardly put it down since Christmas.
Pros:
>> A must for a child that is a fan of Star Wars
>> Has improved his reading skills already in just a few days.
>> Interesting dialog between characters
>> Cartoony look that is faithful to the movies
Cons:
<< Screen is sometimes difficult to see with faster motion
Overall if you have LeapFrog® Leapster® 2 Learning Game System - Green or the pink one, get this game for your early reader.
Thank you for reading my review.
