 Reading with phonics (Leapster) November 6, 2006

I bought what I thought was an interactive BOOK as it was described. I received a small cartridge looking thing but NO BOOK. As I live in Europe and have done so for the last ten years and only recently adopted a 4 year old boy, I had no idea that what I was buying would require another piece of machinary or equipment. As I had it shipped to my brother's house in the states and then only received it a couple of months later when my mom came for a visit, it was too late to return it. So it is completely unusable and was a waste of my money. I feel that the information provided on the internet should clearly indicate that in order to read this virtual "book" one requires a another piece of equipment.
 a great hit with my son May 22, 2006

I have a very advanced pre-k reader, and so I got this game as a challange to his 3 letter words that his class is on. He LOVES THIS GAME, addicted to it. It taught him pretty complicated phonic rules (ones that I didn't quite know how to teach him) like the silent 'E' @ the end, or the 2 vowels together, or even the simple identifing of vowels. THis game taught it to him in a way that he never even questioned about it. By the end of pre-k, while the other kids are still on 2 & 3 letter words, he has learned the tools to read anything, I mean even the longest of words. He even won the medal for best reader of his class. I reccommend this game even for kindergarden or even 1st grade. He's reading at a 2nd grade level. I didn't play the game myself (unlike the other games - I usually do) but he LOVES it and it really worked.
