The last year has been one that we will never forget. While there will be many things we will remember, the one thing that will stand out the most will be our children’s education during this time. As a child, I remember every school closure whether it was due to weather or a strike. Those days don’t even begin to compare to what our children are living through now. With virtual learning as the new norm for many, teachers and parents have had to become very creative in the ways they teach kids and keep them engaged. We have come to love and rely on®, an online learning program that is making learning fun for children during challenging times.
As a pre-K and kindergarten teacher for many years, I have always been very familiar with LeapFrog and have trusted the brand in the classroom and at home for both learning and entertainment. In my classroom and at home with my young children, I love the way that LeapFrog is able to educate kids in a way that includes play at the forefront. From the walker and the learning center, to the LeapPad®, LeapFrog has been a staple in our house since before my kids were born. So naturally, in the depths of a pandemic when our children need more support and educational attention, I have reached for LeapFrog Academy® to meet their needs.
What is LeapFrog Academy®?
LeapFrog Academy® is an interactive learning program filled with 2,000+ engaging games and activities for 3 to 6-year-olds (pre-k to first grade students). LeapFrog Academy® takes children on a learning adventure through play on a variety of devices. The games touch on all curriculum from math, to reading and writing, to science and the world, to feelings and health. If they are learning it at school, LeapFrog Academy® has it covered. One of the great features is that Wi-fi isn’t required! Children can add up to 24 games into their “favorites” to play with just one click and no access to the internet. They will also love the rewards they can earn for their avatar like clothing, accessories, collection pieces and more. With each subscription, you get 5 user profiles so numerous children can go on their own learning adventure. Parents can track their child’s progress to see where they are excelling and where they need more attention. LeapFrog Academy® provides more challenging games to enrich children and keep them challenged while also providing additional practice in areas that still require mastering.
