Leading Educational Brand Brings Loveable Disney Characters to Life

LeapFrog Enterprises, Inc., a leading designer, developer and marketer of innovative technology-based educational products, brings the magic of Disney to life this holiday season on the LeapPad Learning System. Now parents and grandparents shopping for stocking stuffers or lastminute gifts can give children the gift that keeps on giving. Whether it is Disney’s The Lion King, Finding Nemo or Disney Princess, each engaging book introduces readers to a world of interactive adventures.

By combining Disney’s classic characters with LeapFrog’s leading educational products, parents who grew up with Winnie the Pooh can help their children learn with Pooh in an entirely new and interactive way. We brought Disney favorites to the LeapPad Library because we know that children learn with characters they know and love, said Jeff Cronk, director of marketing. The LeapPad learning system brings Disney characters to life and adds a layer of learning that is both fun and engaging. About Disney for the LeapPad System Children place the Disney books on the LeapPad player, pop in the cartridge and touch any page with the Magic Pen to bring learning to life. These books also works with the LeapPad Plus Writing Learning System and the Quantum Pad Learning System.

Disney’s Pooh Gets Stuck After eating too much honey at his friend Rabbit's house, Pooh finds himself stuck in the rabbit hole. As his friends work to free him, children are taught reading comprehension, characters, plot, setting and theme. Disney’s The Lion King As young lion Simba embarks on an amazing adventure to follow in the footsteps of his great father, King Mufasa, and fulfill his destiny in the great Circle of Life, children learn story comprehension, character development, vocabulary and classification. Disney Princess Children experience the magic of fairytales as they help a friend with Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, dress up and dance the night away with Cinderella, or take the plunge with Ariel in a fantastic underwater adventure. By reading and singing along with three beautiful princesses, children understand dialogue and learn story comprehension, character development and vocabulary.

Disney/Pixar Monster Inc., Monsters are lurking after dark, waiting to scare sleeping children everywhere. Children follow their fur-raising escapades to learn vocabulary, reading comprehension, matching, logic and memory as the monsters discover that a child's laughter is far more powerful than a scream.
