User questions & answers

Question:	Will the leap start kindergarten books work with the leapstart PreK system
Answer:	Yes all books will work with either system
Question:	Is this an item that would work well for a toddler on an airplane or is it too loud
Answer:	If you are allowed to have it on the airplane (since it takes batteries, I'm not sure if it's allowed) it would be great as entertainment on an airplane since you can turn the volume down. If you have enough books it would be great.
Question:	Does this 3d book work on a non 3d leapstart player? the question has been asked twice and not answered correctly. i have an old leapstart player
Answer:	According to leapfrog.com, "Books with LeapStart™ 3D logo feature animations on the LeapStart™ 3D system only." So, the 3D books play audio on the older LeapStart system but will not have the 3D animations. I have not tested this personally yet. This is the compatibility chart from leapfrog.com: https://s7.leapfrog.com/is/content/LeapFrog/Site%20English%20Assets/Landing%20Pages/LeapStart/LeapStart%203D%202018/LeapStart%2DCompatibility%2DChart%5Fen%2Dus.pdf I think that the cookie-cutter response from LeapFrog is supposed to say the LeapStart 3D Books will play audio on LeapStart SYSTEM and they just didn't take the time to proofread the answer they've given over and over.
Question:	Can I use the book with the Leapreader pen
Answer:	I don't have the leapreader pen but the books seem specific to the leapstart in how information is downloaded. Might check the leapfrog website to be sure.

User questions & answers

Question:	Does this reader work with tag junior books? Our pen (tag) broke and we are looking to invest in this
Answer:	The Tag Reading System pen will work with LeapReader Junior/Tag Junior books, but the LeapReader Junior/Tag Junior is not compatible with Tag Reading System books. ------http://leapfrog.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/1961
Question:	Is the Leapreader compatible with the Leapreader Junior books
Answer:	No, the Leapreader Tag pen does not work with the board books. You will need a Tag JUNIOR Reader. They are difficult to find new. eBay has several for sale. I would recommend purchasing the Tag Jr. "Pal" that looks like the puppy "Scout." The non-Scout version is an older version. Hope this helps.
Question:	Does the leap reader pen actually read to your child or do I have to purchase a leap reader tablet along with this? I am new to all of this! Thanks
Answer:	Yes, the pen will read each word if pointed on the word or if you touch a particular icon it can just read the whole story while child listens along without pointing pen to each word. There are also books that are more interactive and pen can be used to quiz kids on material and they have to select answers on page using pen. Its a good tool to bridge gap before getting kids in habit of tablets and video game mode. That said, it may be transitional period of entertainment. We paid for it knowing our younger child will get use out of it next and we weren't ready for older one to have tablet yet before establishing basic reading skills.
Question:	Are the markings made by the LeapReader Pen on the 'magic paper' permanent? Can you do the worksheets over and over or just once
Answer:	Unfortunately they are permanent. I was saddened by this but I guess it's still better than nothing.
