LeapFrog Click Start My First Computer

We bought the Leapfrog Click Start My First Computer for our eldest daughter last Christmas. The age range for the computer is 3 years+ and she was only just over 2 at the time but she's quite clever (not that I'm bias at all!) and was desperate for a computer like mummy and daddy have so we decided to get it for her! Luckily, my husband had also just won some Amazon vouchers so it was basically free - yay! So what is it? The Click Start computer is a basic console that plugs in to your tv. It's made of two parts - the actual console that plugs straight in the television and the keyboard which works via infrared so is wireless which is great with young ...  Read the complete review

My husband and I both have regular laptops for grown ups and our 3 year old loves playing games on them so we bought him a Leapfrog Clickstart for Christmas. We had intended on buying a childs laptop but many of them have poor screen displays and not 'qwerty' keyboards.

This runs on c type batteries so no risk of electric shock The other part to the computer is the key board which is a lovely dog ...  Read the complete review

Like most people this is bought in mid as a safe way to practice computer skills without the risk of damage to your main PC link. The games console connects to the TV via scart or the red/yellow/white leads. The console itself is battery powered. There is a power button in the corner which lights up red when switched on. The console itself does hold the games however they do just sit in the top and fall out if not picked up perfectly horizontally - I don't bother with this. They keyboard is bright and vivid - I understand there is a pink one aswell as green, the former for girls, latter for boys, however my girl had green. QWERTY keyboard, easy to use.
