LeapFrog Academy® from LeapFrog® Review

{Disclaimer:  I received a FREE copy of this product through the HOMESCHOOL REVIEW CREW in exchange for my honest review.  I was not required to write a positive review nor was I compensated in any other way.}

We were blessed to receive a one-year subscription to LeapFrog Academy® from LeapFrog® for F and G!  This interactive, online, learning program is designed for children 3-6 years old.  There are over 2,000 games, eBooks, activities and more!  Children can play on the go!

Learning Adventures covers curriculum for PreK - 1st grade and includes subjects like math, reading and science.  I really appreciate that it tracks your child's learning progress and provides extra practice in the areas they need help with, such a cool feature.  

I set G up on the Introduction to Pre-Kindergarten (ages 4-5) and F on the highest level Introduction to Grade 1 (ages 6-7).  Both boys enjoy this program but G has played the most of the two.  It's part of his "school" and he begs to play.

In this program, students move along their map or world by completing activities and games.  These activities are specifically designed for their level and as they continue on their journey, they build bridges (see above) which allows them to access even more of their map!  It's colorful and fun and G enjoys it.

There are also many options for activities outside their map.  One section that G particularly loves is art!  There is so much to do here.  G loves to build things, sort things, and color things.  There are so many fun activities and games to partake in.  He can also play games, puzzles, music, videos and more.

Above you can see G's dashboard.

When he selects art, here are a few of his choices.  The hearts show the activities that he likes the best.

The boys have both enjoyed earning certificates along the way!

I really like that LeapFrog Academy® helps students with problem solving skills and creativity.  If you are looking for an educational program for your 3-6 year old, we highly recommend it.  They also have a free trial available!

Our Fit Made Fun Party

Disclosure:  I received free products in order to host the LeapFrog and CLIF Kid sponsored MommyParty.  The opinions expressed here are my own.

 Our Froggy ready to party!

I was so excited that we were chosen to host a Fit Made Fun MommyParty featuring LeapFrog and CLIF Kid!  LeapFrog and CLIF Kid are two amazing brands and they have teamed up to get kids active and healthy.

Our party pack

Check out our amazing party kit above that included two LeapBands and lots of delicious CLIF Kid Zbars (Peanut Butter Chocolate, Chocolate Chip and Chocolate Mint flavors).

C using our LeapBand

In case you are wondering, LeapBands are wearable activity trackers that encourage kids to get active with customizable virtual pet pals.  These bands track kids' movement and suggests fun active challenges - the more they move, the more points they earn to unlock virtual rewards for their pets and get to new levels.  My kids have been loving their band.

Hundreds of children and parents joined together on September 6, 2014 in Santa Monica, California for multiple Guinness World Records record attempts, thus the Fit Made Fun Day!

 And of course, yummy CLIF snacks.

We had such a great time with friends.  My kids enjoy being outside and being active so this was the perfect opportunity for them to do just that.  A big thanks to CLIF Kid, LeapFrog and MommyParties.

LeapFrog Touch Magic Rock'n Learn Party

 Touch Magic Rockin' Guitars and Learning Bus

Have you heard of LeapFrog Touch Magic Toys?  Touch Magic is a new product line from LeapFrog that brings intuitive touch technology to preschool toys.  These toys recognize taps, touches and swipes to bring each product to life!  This new line is launching with three toys: Touch Magic Learning Bus, Touch Magic Rockin' Guitar, and the Touch Magic Counting Train.  We were blessed to receive 2 Touch Magic Guitars and 1 Touch Magic Bus for our party!

 Check out my fun cupcakes!

 Yummy snacks.

Playing with the Guitar

With the Touch Magic Guitar kids can choose to play solo without a backup, play along with a band or select electric/acoustic guitar to play 10 built-in songs (Rockin' Robin, Itsy Bitsy Spider, If You're Happy and You Know It, Pop Goes the Weasel and more!).  Kids can add guitar riffs, silly sounds and drums creating over 100 musical combinations to make every song unique.

The boys got to try out the Rockin' Guitar as well!

The Learning bus has six piano keys and two drum pads to play along with songs.  Songs include Wheels on the Bus, ABS Song and an original Rockin' School Bus!  There are over 200 learning and musical responses and over 40 touch points on the interactive flat surface.  There are also 3 modes: learning, letter exploration and music.

E rockin' out with our Touch Magic Guitar

We raffled off one of the Rockin' Guitars and here is our winner!

I have been really impressed with how much my kids have been enjoying these toys.  C and D have had a ton of fun with our new Rockin' Guitar role playing!  My older kids have been exploring our bus with E so I will be interested to see how she plays with it as she gets a bit older.  D really likes to sing the ABC's!
