Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review

New and refreshed, this latest Alphabet Pal from LeapFrog includes all the great features from its popular predecessor plus several new ones to add to the fun. A bright cheery purple, Alphabet Pal has 26 little legs each with a coloured shoe and a different letter from the alphabet. There are four unique learning modes to help teach your toddler. Switch Alphabet Pal to learning mode one and press one of the shoes to hear the cheery caterpillar say the (upper case) name of the letter written on that shoe. Learning mode two operates in the same way but this time says the (lower case) phonic sound of that letter. Happily, times have changed from when all electronic toys had American pronunciations, and Alphabet Pal pronounces his phonic sounds the English way.

Learning mode three teaches the colour of the shoe just pressed--red, blue, green or yellow. And finally learning mode four encourages musical awareness. Each shoe pressed plays a different tune--all tunes beginning with the letter written on that shoe. So press "L" to hear the tune from "London's burning". And here's the hidden challenge for all parents--how many of the 26 different tunes do you recognise?

Relaxing on Alphabet Pal's back is a very spaced-out little insect who if pressed will hum the melody to the Alphabet song. And just to show that Alphabet Pal lives up to the companionship of his name, he's got a little cord around his neck so your toddler can take him for a walk. Not surprisingly this is when he's happiest and one tug of his cord also sets him into song.

As well as all the more obvious developmental aids such as encouraging language and auditory skills, Alphabet Pal has lots of hidden teaching skills too: pressing down on his shoes encourages fine motor skills, while taking him for his afternoon walk helps develop toddlers' gross motor skills. As always LeapFrog are parent friendly too and have thoughtfully added a volume control switch on Alphabet Pal's back. There's also an automatic close-down function to preserve the batteries if the toy is left unattended.

Requires 3 AA batteries (demonstration batteries only included). Suitable for ages 12--30 months. --Victoria Mackenzie



Manufacturer's Description

Alphabet Pal is an award-winning pre-school toy, which teaches your child letter names and sounds along with four different colours. He wiggles and wobbles when pulled along while singing the catchy "ABC" song. Alphabet Pal's silly giggle, flashing antennae and wobbly walk are sure to tickle your child's funny bone. Press one of 26 legs to learn letter names, sounds and colours. A sure-fire hit with all young pre-schoolers.

5.0 out of 5 stars So good, my husband has stolen it!, 1 Oct 2004
By Mrs. N. Gilhooley (Yorkshire) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Durability:5.0 out of 5 stars Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars Educational:5.0 out of 5 stars 
I bought this for my one year old niece and made the mistake of showing it to my husband. After 5 minutes, he decided that our 2 month old baby loved it and that Isabel couldn't possibly have it.
At 3 months old now, Bobby is facinated by it and is just starting to reach out for toys. I can't wait for him to get into it and I'm sure he will love playing with it for a good while.

N.B. The first thing my intelligent, mature husband tried was making it say a 'rude' word (e.g. pressing 's' and 'x' in quick succession). It giggles and says 'that tickles! He's now trying to find as many words as he can to tickle it!

5.0 out of 5 stars The best ABC toy on the market, 29 Nov 2002
By A Customer
Durability:5.0 out of 5 stars Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars Educational:5.0 out of 5 stars 
Our daughter has been enhanted and capitvated by Alpha Bug (now Alpha Pal) since she was 1 year old. Not only is it a great learning toy but it also has become one of her favourite amimals. As soon as she was talking, she was mimicking the intro "hi my name is alpha bug" and soon after was singing her ABCs (British english, not American english). Once she started walking, Alpha Pal followed her everywhere, even on walks outside (very durable). Now, at 1.75 years, she is using the colour and music features. Highly recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars Hidden Feature, 5 Feb 2004
By A Customer
Durability:5.0 out of 5 stars Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars Educational:5.0 out of 5 stars 
Good Fun

By far the best feature is when you try and make Alphabet Pal spell a rude word. Instead of saying the word it will say 'That Tickles'.
