Discovery Kids Teach and Talk Laptop, Purple

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was excited at first for my daughter to receive this computer. My reason to is for her to learn more but I'm not pleased. The screen is hard to see and I have no idea what buttons to push for anything. The sound doesn't go up enough either.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really wanted to love this toy laptop but sadly I didn't. The minute I had to get it out of the box I was starting to get frustrated. The material is very cheap. It won't even stay open, every time we open it it closes on its own unless we hold it in place. Once it is on selecting things is very difficult. We clicked enter and nothing would happen then we would try scrolling to other options and it wouldn't move and after a few seconds it would scroll on its own. We then realized that it was just very slow, once we finally had it up and running it was ok. I'm actually really surprised at how awfully made this product is, I mean it looks cute and it is educational but this product needs some work. The mouse was also kind of useless.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Got this before I realized it was recommended for ages 6 and up. I had planned to have my 3 year old use and learn from it, and she is, but with help from her big sister. It states it has over 60 activities, and it's likely true! We have not gotten through half of them yet though - they have found a few that they enjoy repeating and avoid the ones that are "too hard" for them. The actual display screen is smaller than the screen on my cell phone, which was kind of a bummer, but luckily the kids have better eyes than I do and could care less. Screen also rotates, which is great when they are working together and taking turns. Little one may not know all the answers or be able to do all the activities, but she loves it the most because she feels like she is in school like her sister now. It keeps her busy and gives me some free time while giving her some educational screen time.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this a month ago for my grandkids. They like the way you learn about different things on it. They really enjoyed using the laptop and playing on it. They have learned some neat stuff from it. They enjoy it. A lot.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It looks beautiful, but it is quite difficult to operate. It took me a few tries before it would finally turn on. And the battery case was really difficult to unscrew. The graphics are horrible, and even though there is some educational benefit, it is difficult to navigate and not very attractive for children of that age.
