User Submitted Leapfrog Fridge Words Magnetic Word Builder Reviews (cont...)Date: 2007-12-30 Leap Frog Word Whammer My 27 month old just received the word whammer for Christmas. He has really enjoyed it. He loves to push the button to play the alphabet song. And he is enjoying playing with the letters and identifying them. Date: 2007-12-28 Wonderful way to educate and have fun! How wonderful to watch my 4 and 5 year old make up words and sounds and LEARN how to read and recognize letters - very fun and extremely educational - wish we would have gotten this a year or so before now.... Date: 2007-12-27 So disappointed... I wanted to love this product. My family has had wonderful experiences with other LeapFrog products, but this one simply was not of the same quality I have come to expect. Like many of the other reviewers, our first Word Whammer did not correctly identify the letter placed in the first slot. The only letters it recognized were C and Q. I returned it to the store and bought another one, hoping for better luck. The second one had the same problem with two of the three slots. Some of the little tabs in the slots (which read the letters) are partially depressed, thereby preventing letter recognition. I found that if I used my fingernails to pick at the tabs prior to inserting a letter, it would sometimes work, but that eliminates any possibility of my son being independent and spontaneous... I hate to say it, but I am returning the second Word Whammer and looking for an alternative product. Date: 2007-12-13 Great Alphabet learning toy My son got this for Christmas in 2006. I decided to buy this for my nephew for Christmas 2007. It is very durable!! My kids love it! Date: 2007-12-12 Magnetically-challenged Our two-year old knows his letters but is only starting to grasp phonics, so we were pleased to see that he likes this toy. It has gotten about as much play as his wooden alphabet puzzles. Durability, size of pieces, volume levels, etc. are all great. The major drawback is the extremely weak magnets that were used in this product. We also have the Fridge Farm, and it adheres to our refrigerator wonderfully; not so for the Word Whammer, unfortunately. That caveat aside, we are getting our money's worth out of it and expect it to still be in good shape for our next child.
