Children today have education easy – more than two millennia ago they have papyrus and stone tablets for books and oil lamps for lights. Fast forward to the second millennium it was all about books and tomes before a burning candle, and now, barely a decade after the turn of the 21st century children have electronic tablets for books and games. One of these educational gadget must haves is the new LeapFrog LeapPad Explorer multi-functional tablet made for your young ones. This learning tablet promotes the next generation of learning, reading and creativity exercises for children ages four and onwards. If you’re wondering the name LeapFrog might ring a few bells, they are the same company behind the award winning Leapster Explorer that revolutionized the way children can learn and play. LeapPad explorer is a fully functional 5-inch tablet encased in a durable and child-friendly body. It’s loaded with the latest technology, educational tools and multimedia apps to turn digital learning a truly interactive and fun experience.
LeapPad Explorer offers one of the largest collections of learning materials at launch with over 100 games, videos, e-books and flash cards featuring some of the children’s most loved characters. Its learning curriculum covers spelling, phonics skills, mathematics, arts, science, geography and so much more. Children can make use of the tablet’s stylus, tilt-sensor, touch screen, camera, video recording and microphone to interact with the device, express themselves and improve their creativity.
Like all LeapFrog products, the LeapPAd Explorer comes with LeapFrog Learning Path that allows parents to track, monitor and share their kid’s accomplishments, performance, and areas for improvement.



The Wii might have revolutionized the way we play our console games with its intuitive motion detecting controllers and cute graphics. Though cute graphics might not really traditional gamer’s stuff, the action packed moves used to interact with the game does appeal. So what needs to be done is to make those “traditional” gamers play like how Wii players does with the use of new controllers to play old game genres. Take example the classic Tony Hawk game series now souped up with the Ride controller.
Tony Hawk game series is one of the classic and indispensable titles for console games which appealed to a vast number of gamers. Though flips, stunts and 360s are sure hit among players, it could be a littler boring with just the fingers having all the action. The Ride controller takes the game into a more realistic level by having a skateboard right in front of the player. The user will have to literally skate to make the character start moving. There are over a 100 tricks to master which can be a bit challenging now that a board is used instead of just doing a series of button presses. The board comes with a specific game titled Tony Hawk: Ride which works especially with the motion sensing board. First time players won’t have to worry since a casual difficulty setting is available for easy learning.
Just like what the Autobot’s weapon specialist Ironhide said – “You feelin’ lucky, punk?†There’s no better way to test your luck while your hands cheerfully frolic on your keyboard with your favorite beer than an online casino.
