My entire family was blown away by Nelson Mandela’s Favorite African Folktales. I got a copy from the folks at Hachette, and my kids stole it. They wouldn’t let me listen to it by myself. But little did I know, I was going to get to hear it for the next several weeks, every day, [...]

LeapFrog Hops Up to the Didj

Nov 23rd, 2008 | By chrisbrogan

I was sent a LeapFrog Didj to evaluate, for my six year old daughter. She was already a Leapster user, and enjoyed it, but she’s clearly getting a bit too old for the content there. She aces all the games, and that’s no fun- not being challenged. So, getting into the Didj was a cool [...]
