LeapFrog Letter Factory Phonics

Appropriate for children who are at least two years old, this learning toy lets little learners to place the 26 letter tiles of the alphabet in the factory to hear songs that teach the corresponding letter names and sounds. With its tactile play, amusing songs, and convenient portability, the Letter Factory Phonics provides an engaging way for your child to build early literacy skills at home or while traveling.


Musical Tiles Talk, Teach, and Sing

Based on the award-winning Letter Factory DVDs (sold separately), the Letter Factory Phonics introduces children to the alphabet through the Alphabet Song and hands-on play. When children insert one of the 26 letter tiles into the battery-powered Letter Factory reader and press it into place, the unit plays a song about the letter and sound. Moving the letters into and out of the reader not only helps children learn their ABCs, but also helps develop fine motor skills. An additional button atop the unit allows children to hear the Alphabet Song, reinforcing what they've learned. For added convenience, a sliding switch allows the user to set the volume to the desired high, low, or off setting. The Letter Factory Phonics will automatically shut off after 15 seconds of inactivity to conserve battery power.

Alex Monkey Balance Board

Alex Monkey Balance Board 

Alex Monkey Balance BoardImprove your balance and coordination with the Alex Monkey Balance Board. Perfectly sized for little feet--yet able to accommodate larger ones--this sturdy wooden wobbly board features an adorable monkey graphic. Designed for ages three and up, the board supports balancers up to 200 pounds, making it suitable for the entire family to enjoy. Easy for adults to assemble, this balance board provides durability and fun that can be used indoors as well as outdoors.


Colorful Design Encourages Physical Activity

The Monkey Balance Board is designed to encourage physical activity by improving balance, coordination, and leg strength. To use it, kids can stand with one foot on either side of the board. Put one foot on the board before carefully adding the other and attempting to balance by shifting your weight from side to side. For fun and encouragement, the board is decorated with a playful purple monkey graphic on the surface that's sure to invite children of all ages to step aboard and try to balance.

Sturdy Construction Provides Durability

Formed of lightweight yet sturdy plywood, the Monkey Balance Board consists of four pieces held together by six screws. Once the basic assembly is complete, the board can support weight in excess of 200 pounds. Suitable for indoor or outdoor use, the board features a laminate coating on the surface to protect the monkey graphic from wear and tear.

Using the Monkey Balance Board

In testing, the Monkey Balance Board performed as described. Assembly took only a few minutes, and our testers (weighing as much as 200 pounds) found the board strong, supportive, and easy to use. However, the simple nature of balancing may cause some users to become bored after a few minutes of use. Still, younger children may find the activity useful for emulating skateboarding, surfing, and other activities they're too young for.

What's in the Box

Platform, two sideboards, dowel, six screws, and instructions.
