Teacher Review
Leap sets off to deliver invitations to the music recital but gets distracted along the way in this engaging, interactive storybook designed to introduce basic math concepts to preschoolers. Set the book in the LeapPad (sold separately), and tap Go with the magic pen to hear the story. Optional math games on each page allow children to help Leap solve simple math problems that involve number and shape recognition, counting from 1 to 10, sorting and classifying, and sequence and pattern formation. In the end, of course, the invitations are delivered and the recital is a success.

Buy Leap 1 Math Book: Counting on Leap by LeapFrog

The final pages are particularly fun: kids can tap the six individual instruments to hear them play alone, or tap the conductor to hear how all six parts come together to make a song. Like all LeapPad books, this one features excellent sound quality, pleasant narrative voices, fun sound effects, and adjustable volume settings. --Elisabeth Fredrickson, mother of three and former English teacher
