BTSB: Educational Insights - GeoSafari Jr. Laptop Jr. Review & Giveaway (Open to US & Canada)

I recently learned about Educational Insights which is a great place to find educational toys. Since I am trying to get Tobin ready for preschool and eventually kindergarten, I love to find educational toys that will be great learning tools. Which is why I was so excited when we were sent the GeoSafari Jr. Laptop Jr. to review.

About the GeoSafari Jr. Laptop Jr. (from their website)

Give little learners an early “download” of the skills and subjects they’ll explore later in school. Includes 63 double-sided lesson cards that store inside the unit and explore reading and math readiness, beginning science and social studies, and more in laptop-style activities. Offers 3 modes of play: 1 player, 2 player and head-to-head. Features lights and sound that guide game play, track scores and provide feedback. Compact, durable game system requires 4 AA batteries, included. Grades PreK-2.

Tobin loves computers, especially Mommy's laptop, so the GeoSafari Jr. Laptop Jr. was the perfect toy for him. Tobin was thrilled when his very own laptop arrived!

The GeoSafari Laptop Jr. is really cool, it helps your child learn in 7 subject areas:
 -Readiness
-Visual Discrimination
-Phonics
-Beginning Reading
-Math
-Science
-Social Studies

It comes with 126 activity cards with award-winning educational lessons. There is a storage compartment that holds a full set of activity cards which I love. There is fun lights and sounds which helps make it a lot of fun.

Tobin loves his laptop but it's definitely an activity that I need to help him with. It is for ages 3 and up, but most of these Tobin needs at least a little bit of help and guidance from me, at least for now. Once he becomes a reader though, I know he'll be able to play with this all by himself. For now, I enjoy playing it with him. I'll read the instructions to him and get the activity card he wants all set up, then he pretty much does everything else on his own. His favorite activities are the visual discrimination activity cards where he has to find objects among a lot of other objects. He's really good at it!

We have had so much fun playing with the laptop and Tobin gets better at it and more independent every time we play. It is such a great teaching tool and will help get Tobin ready for school in no time. It's portable which is great and will be great for when we go on road trips as well. We love the Educational Insights - GeoSafari Jr. Laptop Jr. and highly recommend it.
