Simply plug the Word Launch base into your television to begin this carnival-themed adventure. Children build 600+ three or four-letter words by placing combinations of the 32 included letter tiles into the Word Launch base and watch each letter and word spring to life on the television. Thirteen hands-on learning games help children progress through three learning levels. Children begin with sounding out letters and learning to build simple three letter CVC (consonant-vowel-consonant) words. Children then build four-letter words with beginning and ending consonant blends. In the advanced learning mode, children learn about long and short vowels and how vowel sounds change when a silent "e" is added to a word. Fun and games and rewards encourage children to learn as they build the ultimate roller coaster. Join the fun and launch your child on the path to reading! Introduces: phonics skills, word building, consonant blends, and short/long vowels. Requires 4 "AA" batteries (not included). Measures 7" x 10" x 2.5".

Summary: A great toy
Comment: My kids (4 and 6) have had this for over a year now, and still enjoy playing it. As with any LeapFrog product I have tried, I think it is very educational.
It's nice to have some toys that they are actually learning something from.

Summary: Fun for 3-4 year olds
Comment: My son just turned 3 and loves this game. My son is advanced for his age and this is just what he needs to make learning words fun. I would ignore the comments about the graphics. We use the game on our 32 inch TV and the graphics are fine for a 3 year old. What do parents expect for $22?
I recommend this game for children under 5.

Summary: Leap Frog Dropped the Ball
Comment: This toy was on sale for $20 and i jumped at the chance, only to be very disappointed. We have enjoyed Leap Frog products in the past and trusted the company name, no more!
Our 4 year old has enjoyed the toy but the graphics are very poor quality and "chunky" in nature, takes me back to my Atari days. The games are rather simple and boring. As a reward players receive tokens to use to build a theme park roller coaster, once again the graphics are just terrible and the roller coaster can only be built so big before you have to start again.
i just can't believe that Leap Frog allowed such a toy to be marketed? The board must have been sleeping the day this was rammed through. It's not a toy that will build their name in learning. It's annoying to adults, frustrating to children and a waste of money.
One weak positive, our daughter does enjoy plugging it in and turning it on by herself.

Summary: Boring!!!!!!
Comment: It's a cheap version of the word whammer. My four year old son loves the word whammer, but is bored with this product. He uses the word whammer for about an hour daily. I can't get him to sit for 30 seconds with this product.

Summary: Great
Comment: This is a great tool for kids to learn off of. I to expected more from leapfrog, with the sound. But kids can learn off it and that is what it is for.
