I bought this as a gift for my daughter, who at the time was just about to turn 3. From day one she has loved it! I can honestly say that she would not love learning as much as she does now if it weren't for the LeapPad!The purple and pink was a great idea from the manufacturer, she was barely interested in the green and blue.In addition to the LeapPad, the organizers and books make it a tight system. It's very difficult to lose cartridges with the organizer.It's also very stable, it's been dropped, hanged (by the pen/cord), written on and RAINED ON and it's still working flawlessly. The pages are laminated so they don't get damaged or torn either!Overall this is the BEST purchase I've made for my daughter yet. If you want your child reading and doing math quickly and having fun while learning, GET THIS NOW!
