The LEAPFROG® Learning Path

The Learning Path provides insights into specific skills your child is exploring and recommendations to expand the learning, including links to articles from our LeapFrog Parents site. Each time your child plays with the LEAPREADER ^™ Junior book pal, the book pal remembers how long your child explored each book, the time spent on favorite/favourite pages and samples of the activity questions your child answered. You can see all of this and more by simply connecting the book pal to your computer, clicking the Parents tab in your LEAPFROG ^® Connect Application and creating a LEAPFROG LearningPath for your child online. We recommend connecting weekly to keep your child's Learning Path up to date.
