"B says bu, B says bu, every letter has a sound, B says bu," says the narrator. What do you think the number of boats is? "1,2,3" is a sound that each letter makes on its own. It sounds like "S" (decide) and "K" (cup, cat), for example, according to C. For each letter, it also provides examples, such as the boat shown above. The ABCs and The Wheels on the Bus are both sung by the music note button. It is a big hit with my daughter. She's 2. 5yrs

It must be attached to a magnetic field. It's a colossal magnet toy made out of plastic.
Selected User Reviews For LeapFrog Fridge Phonics Magnetic Letter Set, Pink
When my boys were younger, I had a similar situation. They adored it and relished the opportunity to learn their alphabet through the use of simple letter plates and songs. I knew this would be a great learning tool for my newest addition when we were surprised to learn we were expecting another little person (with teenage boys in the house). br>I'm not impressed, to be honest. A letter plate was missing from the first one that was sent out. It was quickly replaced with a new item that included all of the letters. br>The issue I'm seeing (and hadn't seen with the version my boys had when they were kids) is that the letter plate will sometimes (much more than I'd like to admit) sing a song for the WRONG LETTER when it's placed on the pad. This isn't a joke. Take a look at the video I made! br>When my daughter places an X on the toy, it will sing a song that corresponds to a different letter. It used to sing "M's" theme song. br>Since then, I've discovered that if you don't push it all the way to the center, it will play the wrong song. I'm disappointed because small children are prone to becoming confused and learning the incorrect letters and sounds. Isn't that what this toy is all about? To aid in the teaching of letter sounds? Knowing that I sound eerily similar to my mother and, dare I say, my grandfather Things aren't made as well as they once were. It doesn't last very long and doesn't care about quality. br>Now, when my child plays with this toy, I keep an eye on her to make sure she doesn't get confused or learn the incorrect letter names and sounds.
The product itself appears to be satisfactory, but I am dissatisfied with the words that each letter represents. The words have to do with cars, and I don't think toddlers will understand them. Instead of saying "A is for apple," for example, "A is for Avenue" is used instead. M stands for motor rather than mommy or even monkey. Although I was disappointed, my daughter appears to enjoy the upbeat music that comes with it. My son had the previous version (9 years ago), which I believe was more effective. br>br>It took a couple of drops within 24 hours of use and held up well, so that's something I'm pleased with.
On paper, it's a cute idea, but in reality, it's not so cute. br>br>For each letter, it says the letter name, pronounces the letter, and says "[insert bus-insert bus-insert bus-insert bus-insert bus-insert bus-insert bus-insert bus [letter name] is the first letter of the word [themed word]" The letter is then read aloud again. (Example: Wuh- wuh. The letter W is the first letter of Windows. They provide pronunciations for both the short and long vowels. sounds that are long Now, I'm not a fan of the pronunciations being included (in fact, some research suggests that teaching letter names first isn't the best practice either). And many of the word examples appear to be stretching it in order to stay on track. Apart from that, it's simply far too long. To hear all of that would take far too long. My two-year-old daughter's 2-year-old son's 2-year-old daughter's year- Before she could even hear the sample word, my 8-year-old niece started turning the yellow button (and volume control) off. br>br>I will say, however, that she enjoys the songs.
The magnets in the letters, as well as the pink bias, are both very weak, which is my main issue. They have a habit of sliding down the refrigerator by themselves. Even the letters are too heavy for the magnets to hold. I prefer the vintage look. The one with the slightly larger letters and the ability to make a three-letter word was a far superior design. This one appears to have been thrown together quickly and cheaply, and it is of poor quality.
On Amazon, these were a much better deal than at Walmart, costing only $19. Walmart. com had them for 99 cents each, but only the alphabet set was available. I was given a price of $14. 95 by Amazon. I figured it would be 99 cents each if I bought both, so I took the plunge. When my nephew was younger, he had the alphabets, and now that I have a one-year-old and another on the way in February, I try to get similar toys for them to avoid fighting later. br>I adore the entire leapfrog series and will continue to purchase it for my children. They provide both wholesome and educational entertainment; it's difficult to find ways to educate those young minds, and leapfrog makes my job as their mother a little easier.
She now enjoys playing with them and especially enjoys pressing the song buttons. There were no magnets missing, and they all adhered to the refrigerator.
It was a huge success! • Each of them (now five years old) used it. 2) From the age of one year old, there is a lot to do. At the age of one, they primarily used the song buttons. 2. After that, you can move on to using the chunky magnet letters. My 5-year-old granddaughter is still using the magnet letters on the fridge to form words. br>• The recommended age is two, but my granddaughters used it before they were two and loved it! • For my niece's first birthday, I gave her one. It's a lot of fun for her. • Strongly suggested! br>.
A HORRIBLE DOWNGRADE IN QUALITY. This game is suitable for children aged 2 years and up. You sure? I used to have one of the original leapfrog fridge phonic toys when I was a kid. It was a letter with no folds in it. These have grooves that read the letters, which the previous versions didn't have. They're also made of a hollow plastic that feels a lot cheaper and has a nice catch. They're a fraction of the size of the real thing. Not only that, but the phonic device moves very slowly down the fridge. It isn't even magnetically strong enough to stay upright. Since being acquired by Vtech a few years ago, Leapfrog has been a huge disappointment. br>br>YEAR UPDATE: YEAR UPDATE: YEAR UPDATE: YEAR UPDATE: YEAR To demonstrate the size difference, I dug up the same fridge phonics I had as a kid. This toy has gotten a LOT WORSE. While it hasn't been sliding around the fridge as much lately, it still reads the letters incorrectly on a regular basis. It's ok for me to tell my child things like H is ok. The letters have not been tampered with in any way. They're spotless, but they have to be pressed in a certain way to say the correct letter, and it's driving me crazy. I'm on the verge of discarding it. My son has an autistic spectrum disorder. She does a fantastic job with the alphabet. This has the potential to sabotage it completely.
