 "Tag vs Tag Junior" 2009-08-31
By Lynnette Fikse (Sully, IA USA)
We already owned 2 of the original Tag readers, and our two oldest kids (3 and 4 years old) love them. As an insurance policy of sorts on our Tag books, we purchased the Tag Junior for our 20-month old since the board books would be more durable than the paper pages of the Tag books. We also appreciated that the Tag Junior books would work with the original Tag reader (but not vice versa). While the 20-month-old is indifferent to the Tag Junior, most likely because no one is telling her "no" about it, the older two kids like it. They enjoy the songs and the simplicity of the books as much as they enjoy the more involved games in the original Tag books. The only negatives we've noticed are that the board pages of the Tag Junior books do separate like board books always do if a kid decides one page is too thick and it must be more than one page so they try to separate it, and that using the Tag reader with the Tag Junior books does leave dents in the board book pages if the kids aren't gentle with it due to the point on the end of the Tag reader (whereas the Tag Junior reader has a flat head). But, overall, it's a winner! We're looking forward to getting more Tag Junior books at Christmas and birthdays to grow our supply of books that work with either kind of reader.

 "OK, but get a Leapster instead." 2010-01-10
By Mom785943
The Nitro Jr. Notebook (ours came with 2 cartridges, with slots to hold 3 total) is OK, but really not worth the money. You'd be better off getting a Leapster. The only really good thing about this is that it looks like a real notebook computer, which of course has that "just like mommy/daddy's" appeal, but then when you open it up the display screen is only about 2x3 inches, and has 1980's quality graphics - really bad. My 3 and 6 year olds like the games, but I think they will get bored with this quickly. We also have a Leapster, which has much better graphics (even though the screen is smaller) and more variety to the games.

 "Lots of old school games" 2010-01-09
By Kimberly Fullton
This laptop toy has lots of games, but they are VERY pixely and not at all intuitive. We've had a hard time figuring out most of them. However, for the price, this little toy díez have a lot of options. Not the best for English language learners.

 "If we could only see the screen..." 2010-01-05
By Jennifer Hollister (Skippack, PA)
What a great product this would be if only we could see the screen. My 5 year old and I are constantly leaning forward and trying to see and interpret the grahics. Why this company would put so much into designing great learning games but not creating a screen we can see is beyond me.

 "Small screen and terrible graphics" 2009-11-16
By M. Kavita (atlanta, ga)
My son got it for his 4th birthday. I agree with the other reviews. The toy looks great, looks almost like a real computer but once you open it, the screen is too small and hard to read. It comes with 8 cartridges that you insert into the game slot and my 4 year old found it hard to get it out of the slot each time. Opening up the laptop is also a little difficult for tiny hands. All in all it has great potential and looks really cool but the screen size sucks.



Updated Nov 19 2009:

Although I gave this a bad review initially, my son does not seem to notice the screen size and absolutely loves this toy! Even my 7 year old loves playing with it. So I am increasing the rating as the kids seem to enjoy the toy.

 "Educationally sound, graphics horrible" 2009-07-01
By J. Hendershott (Ohio)
We got this for my daughter for her 4th birthday and she loves it. I read the reviews about the small screen - this does not bother me or her. She really likes the games (and there are many of them) and they challenge her. She loves the mouse and her own keyboard (she likes to "type"...so the word editor game is right up her alley) and that is is her "own computer like mommy and daddy". My daughter is only of the first level of games, so I do not know how the different levels are. The first level skills, however, are repetetive - which she needs. When she pushes a wrong button, it does not just buzz - it tells her the wrong answer, that it is not correct and gives her another chance at it.



When I was trying to play the games (in order to help my daughter), I felt like I was 10 again playing Atari. The graphics are old school and the screen is really dark, even though I changed the contrast. If I had known that the graphics were this unclear, I probably would not have purchased it.

 "Good System" 2009-11-29
By Ali (Indiana)
I am a mother of 2 (3 1/2 and 1 yr). Our 3 1/2 year old has the Tag system which he loves *****. Our 1 yr. old was constantly wanting to play with his brother's Tag toy. For his first b-day we decided to get him the Tag junior system. It is a good system and both of our boys love it! My only complaint is the books. With the Tag system pretty much anywhere you touch on the page makes a sound or talks. The Tag Junior system is not quite as good at this. For instance, with the Curious George book, if you don't hit precisely on the big color word it just makes a generic dinging sound. As you can imagine it is hard for him to hit the word and he frequently loses interest when this happens and will go over and play with the regular Tag system. It is a great system and a lot of fun. Both of my children love both systems, but the Tag junior books could use slight improvement! I would possibly consider just getting the Tag system and forgoing the Tag Junior system for a 1yr. old; however, the durability of the Tag Junior books is much better!

 "Some examples are confusing" 2009-12-29
By vanilla beaniyeh (Virginia, USA)
I own the entire Tag Junior library. Read my reviews before buying books! (I wish I had researched before buying them all!)



The reason why this book gets a lower rating than the others I've rated is because sometimes the concept the book is trying to demonstrate is often confusing based on the examples they use. Here are the "opposites" they teach in this book:



-Start v. Finish*

-Slow v. Fast*

-Top v. Bottom*

-Over v. Under

-Wet v. Dry

-Inside v. Outside

-Near v. Far*

-Narrow v. Wide

-Last v. First

-Hello v. Goodbye*



Starred are the confusing ones.



Start v. Finish is demonstrated by a map where X marks Start and a finish line marks Finish. For children who are not familiar with the concept of maps, they won't get it. Not only that, but the example should be obvious as to which direction they are going in, but start to finish is only joined by a dotted line with a very small arrow at the end at Finish. Perhaps it should have a dotted line with large arrows on it pointing toward finish.



Slow v. Fast is also confusing because it shows one of the Backyardigans going on a ski slope in regular skis which represents Slow and Pablo on a snowmobile which represents Fast. The child would have to have a background knowledge of winter sports to be able to know that the snowmobile is motorized and therefore faster, but I live in a place that never gets any snow and my child didn't get what they were demonstrating based on this example.



Top v. Bottom was not clear at all. This concept is demonstrated by two snowboarding Backyardigans, one supposedly at the top of the mountain and one supposedly at the bottom. However, neither of them are on the mountain at all.



Near v Far is demonstrated by spaceships -- one is Near to reader, others are "Far" from the reader close to the moon out in space. To further confuse things, they included the earth on the page, yet it's not the base for comparison, so the child at first glance will not know what the spaceships are near to and far from -- "the earth or me?" The way they did this whole concept is confusing because it is the first and only concept that uses the reader as its base for comparison.



And finally, Hello v. Goodbye is confusing because Hello is demonstrated by a handshake and goodbye is demonstrated by a hand wave. Most people use waving for hello and goodbye, and some people do not shake hands at all and given the germophobia of the 2000s handshaking is becoming a little dated in America.



-----------------------------------------------



I usually like thinking outside the box, but when teaching a concept to toddlers, LeapFrog should be OBVIOUS with it. I mean, making the concept unclear is like writing a number backwards while teaching counting or writing a letter upside-down while teaching the alphabet. Overall, I like the idea/theme of the race to teach opposites, but I think they should change this book to make the opposite concept more obvious on some of the pages.

 "Great Product" 2009-07-13
By Cara Holland (Chicagoland, IL)
This is a great book. I would not knock the book down to a one just because it is not compatible. The focus is the book and this book is great at teaching opposites. My two year old daughter loves her reader and this book and my five year old son uses her junior reader instead of his older reader. Great buy.

 "One of the best Tag jr Books" 2010-02-14
By Avid Reader
This book seems to have A LOT more activities than most of the other books we own, and we have 11 of them. This one is always downloaded into our Tag Jr. This one has the most stuff on the page and different sayings. Ni Hao Kilan (sp?) has more songs and music than the rest which is great. Cars is actually kind of disappointing. The Dr Seuss Mr Brown is a good one too.



My 2 1/2 yr old LOVES her Tag Jr. It is played with mulitple times a day for 2 months now with no end insight.

 "This is my Favorite so Far" 2009-08-24
By J. Goldthwaite (Seabrook, NH United States)
My son is (almost) a year old, and after seeing the Tag Jr. System I knew I had to get it for him, though he's still a bit young for it. I'm amazed at what TAG Jr. does for the price, it's very durable scanner with voice and interactivty for $35 and I got mine with coupon at a B&M store for $25.



The Pooh book is read by a pleasent sounding lady, and when you touch any of the charactors it plays clips in their voices. Pooh sounds like Pooh, Tigger sounds like Tigger, Eyore sounds like Eyore, etc.



There is music and it asks you to find things, like "Find all the pictures of Rabbit in this book".



I like that the Book is an actual board book, it doesn't have any electronics in it. All of the electronics are in the reader, the book is printed with a hardly noticable bar code like pattern that the reader uses to access stored info.

 "It is a boring book for a 3 year old" 2010-03-01
By Huimin Ouyang (CA USA)
I was quiet disappointed with the Sesame Street Monster Faces book. The other LeapFrog Tab Junior Books I bought were very fun to read and have lots of information on each page. But this book only has the faces and the words on each page. No interesting story to explain the face expression. Very little interaction between the reader and the book. My 3 year old son does not like it at all. But he enjoys reading the other Tag Junior books.
