LeapFrog Learning Friends: Preschool Adventures helps little ones, ages 3 and 4, get ready for preschool through 3 exciting adventures with the Learning Friends. (Includes Turtle's ABCs!, Tiger Counts! and Monkey Creates!, also sold separately.) Children can dive into literacy skills with Turtle as they have a blast at the beach, use early mathematics to give Tiger a wonderful birthday celebration, and join Monkey for a day of creative fun at the playground. LeapFrog Learning Friends: Preschool Adventures works with all LeapPad tablets and LeapsterGS gaming systems (sold separately). In Turtle's ABCs, little ones spend a day of fun in the sun nurturing skills for reading. They can go snorkeling with Turtle, and help him search for-and identify-upper- and lowercase letters. They can blow bubbles with Koala, and listen to letter sounds as the bubbles grow. A fun crab catching game invites little ones to match letters and then trace the letter-shaped drawing in the sand, while a tide pool game helps build vocabulary. Tiger Counts adds to the learning and fun with a picnic party for Tiger's fourth birthday. Children can help make it her best birthday ever as they use counting skills to set the table, compare the sizes of cake slices to serve everyone dessert, and sort balloons by color, shape and number. In Monkey Creates, little ones join the Learning Friends at the playground to explore gardening with Turtle and play 5 different musical instruments with Tiger. They can also build a tricycle, scooter, wagon or pedal car by dragging vehicle parts onto a blueprint, and help Monkey find shapes in his pictures and chalk drawing. Pick a color and tap a shape to color each picture!
