LeapFrog LeapPad- Touch Tablet for Kids

by mom on September 1, 2011

This is truly amazing for  a 3-8 year old (4-9 year old manufacturer recommended age). The games are educational, colourful and attractive to kids;  the touchscreen makes them feel like “dad”. Each tablet can be personalized with photos of them or with photos they take with the tablet! Each child can also pick from many games and apps. My husband never gets to use his iPad when the kids are awake; they are either playing with dad or asking to play with the tablet. The LeapPad Tablet is our solution, and for under $110 CDN, I think it is a steal! I have ordered one from LeapFrog and will be giving it to our 3 year old this Christmas. Take advantage of the Leapfrog free shipping today. Read more reviews here.

The Baby/Child Carrier Solution

August 3, 2009

I have been in, somewhat, a predicament as of late, as I will have 3- 16 month olds in my care. I have been searching for a triple stroller to no avail. These strollers are very hard to come by, apparently, and quite expensive even when used. I have been trying to figure out how [...]
