LeapFrogFridge Phonics Magnetic Letter Set, Yellow

Such a fun teaching tool! This has not only been a fun teaching tool for my grands but also helps while trying to get things done in the kitchen, such as preparing a meal. This keeps them entertained all while learning and having fun! I am also a preschool teacher. This is such a wonderful learning tool used as a center in my classroom. It is good for letter recognition, sound, songs and fine motor for placing the letter in designated space.

Very good product, sturdily built, loud and engaging for toddlers.

The media could not be loaded. I’ve only had a few hours, but I already love it. It is just the right size for little hands and is so easy to use.Each letter says its name and the sound it makes and then if you press in the letter again, it’ll say a little bit about a word starting with the letter. I am sure that song ,” every letter makes a sound “ will be forever in my brain, but the good point is it’ll also be in your little one’s brain! The two songs when you press the musical note button are, the ABC song and the wheels on the bus. I have the pink girl dog one and it is so cute. I like the idea that the letters stay firm on the refrigerator door, but are easy to remove and so is the bus part as well so if your little one wants to sit on the floor and hold it they can. I heard there’s a case that also goes with these and I think I will get that so that we could have play anywhere not just up by the refrigerator.

I bought this for my autistic, nonverbal child. And I can attest that this toy has been monumental in helping him to not only learn his letters, but verbalising actual words. This is a fantastic buy that I would recommend for everyone parent to get for their child.

I love this and so does my toddler. It's a great way for my son to learn his letters and the corrects sounds. I love this product as an educator and as a parent. Easy to use and perfect size.

Many years ago, my now 15 year old had this toy, which he adored. It taught him the alphabet as a very young toddler! I came across while shopping for my nephew and had to purchase. Not only was it sentimental, it's an amazing educational toy for littles!

This had the potential to be a perfect learning tool. There are many great things and a few not so great features.PROS-* Each letter tile speaks the letter, then sings a song, the same song for each letter highlighting the phonetic sound/sounds that each letter makes. For example: For letter U the song sings, "U says U (as in user) and U says U (as in up), every letter makes a sound U says U (as in user) and U (as in up)." If pressed a second time it also speaks a word that begins with the letter and uses it in a sentence.* The bus itself as well as all of the letters are magnetic. They stick very strongly to a black chalkboard and even fairly strongly to a dry erase white board as well. From the other reviews, it does not seem to stick to true stainless steel refrigerators. Also even if it does stick to other faux stainless steel refrigerators, according to some reviews it will scratch the surface. I would not recommend for steel like refrigerator use unless you don't care about scratches. For my typical white finish GE refrigerator, both the bus and the letters stuck to it very well with no issues* The letters and the bus both have the magnets enclosed in plastic so no concern about children swallowing magnets.* Seems pretty durable. Our high energy 22 month old toddler has thrown and dropped the bus and letters countless times and everything still works.* The letters are easy for my 22 month old to pull out and put in by himself.CONS-* There is a song button on the front that plays Wheels on the bus and the ABC song. Our toddler was totally fixated on this button until I had to use a Jedi mind trick on him to press the letters instead. 🙃 (Whenever he pressed the Wheels on the bus button I wouldn't react but when he pressed a letter, I would clap and sing along.) This caused him to lose interest in the song button and pay attention to the letters. This button was an unneccesary distraction to him learning his ABCs in my opinion.* There are two volumes. One is fairly low and the other is very loud. I try to keep it on the lower volume but they placed the control right on the front where the children can reach it so our child is always turning it up. 😾* If the child repeatedly pushes the letter it will keep stating the name of the letter over and over. Our toddler enjoys doing this and sometimes gets fancy as if he is a DJ scratching a record, lol.* Some of the letter tiles will inevitably get lost, but I haven't seen where I can just buy a replacement set of letters without purchasing the whole bus/letters set over again.

good educational tool and value.
