good for those with a computer January 4, 2009
The Tag system is a great idea in principle, but one thing i didn't realise upon purchasing it was that i had to load the books onto the pen first before the pen would recognise them.
The download was actually straight forward and took only a few minutes to do(but no good for families without access to a computer or the internet), the tag pen however only has space for 5 books to be downloaded to it at a time, so if like us who bought it for christmas with lots of extra books you will have to keep swapping and changing the books available on the pen on the computer.
The pen is very easy to use however some of the voices used are annoying but the kids don't seem to mind, as they haven't put it down since getting it, i would recommend it to anyone who has a computer to get it if their kids enjoys reading - but not yet mastered the art of reading.
 Great - if it would ever work... January 3, 2009
A great idea and, in the few moments we've seen it actually work, it promises to be a great product. Unfortunately, we've spent hours repeatedly loading the books and still have only the very first download working. The online file shows the reader has the books load but simply doesn't work when we try to read them. The 'Help' from Leapfrog is so pathetic that I've given up and am throwing this out. The Tag is exactly like the other Leapfrog item (V-smile Learning System) we foolishly bought; it over-promises and under-delivers and is utterly unreliable.
 Fantastic January 2, 2009
I bought this for my four year old for Christmas, and she hasnt put it down. It's kept her amused for hours at a time. She has now memorised the Ozzie Otter book that comes with it and loves using the pen to help her with words she doesnt recognise. I would recommend this product to anyone as my little girl thoroughly enjoys using it, and has really come on with her reading in the short week she has had it!
Surprisingly enjoyable toy December 31, 2008
I brought this for my daughter 5 year old who has speech & language difficulties, I thought she would not like it very much as she finds reading hard and tends to avoid anyhthing too difficult, but she instantly loved the Tag reader. She is mainly using the pictures and games and we are slowly showing her how to trace the words to tell the stories. But it is great not only for the obvious skills, but is helping with her concentration and it is just good fun for her.
This is not only great for kids who have problems with reading, I have another 4 year daughter who loves it equally and picked up how to use it so qucikly without much help. My only problem now it that they want to both play with it at the same time!
I am really surprise how much they both love this toy and would highly recommend.
great toy December 30, 2008
got this for my 5yr old for christmas, he has Downs syndrome and his speech is quite behind that of his peers so he can't really read yet either. This allows him to read through the book word by word on his own or it'll read the whole page to him. We hoped it would bring him some independance with books as he loves them. There are a couple of pages at teh end of each book with games on, they are a bit above his understanding without our guidance a tthe moment but i'm sure with a few goes he'll pick it up. He loves the cars and diego books we also bought for it, especially as you can touch the pictures and they say things. I was surprised at just how easily this works, only a light touch is needed. Uploading the extra books to the pen is really simple just put in the disk and it takes you straight to the website. Really recommended to any parent of a child that loves books
