by chrisceb Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 200, Jan 24 '01
Pros: Promotes learning on many different levels
Cons: The noise!
*Sigh*, yet another toy that talks and requires batteries. I sigh because they wear me out and for some reason my in-laws insist on purchasing these nerve-wrecking toys for my children. Leap Frog Fun & Learn Bus was given to my daughter at Christmas...

by dequebec , Jun 27 '01
Pros: helps preschoolers learn their alphabet, great colors, cute characters
Cons: ANNOYING! small letters, strange jokes, hard to discern letters sometimes

Triplets learning the alphabet

by Debbie26 Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Dec 29 '00

Pros: Will Keep Your Child Laughing And Learning For Hours
