Today LeapFrog® Enterprises, Inc., the leader in innovative learning toys for children, announced the availability of LeapStart® 3D, a revolutionary update to its award-winning LeapStart® Interactive Learning System. Perfect for both visual and auditory learners, LeapStart 3D gets kids excited about learning by combining real books with 3D-like animations that magically bring the activities to life. They help kids build a wide range of skills through a curriculum designed by a dedicated team of in-house learning experts.

"With LeapStart 3D, kids can explore reading, counting, problem solving, creative thinking and more, through fun replayable activities with 3D-like animations." said Andy Keimach, President, VTech Electronics North America, LeapFrog's parent company. "We want to help create a foundation for success that fosters a love of learning!"

LeapStart 3D is an all-in-one interactive learning system for active minds, providing the perfect balance of core and life skills to help prepare kids for the future and build a strong foundation for life-long learning. Touch-and-talk activities enhance learning with interactive animations to help kids build math, reading, problem-solving skills and more. The stylus reads invisible dots on every page, triggering questions, challenges, songs and more with accompanying 3D-like animations.

"With LeapStart 3D, children engage with real books packed with activities to build key skills from counting and problem solving to phonics and vocabulary," said Dr. Carolyn James, Executive Learning Designer for LeapFrog.
