My 5 year old daughter loves the Draw & Learn software for Leapster, especially the colour-in feature. It is really useful for long car journeys (can be seen in the dark & no lost pencils)! There are various activities that promote pencil control (e.g. a maze game) and letter formation is also covered (good for younger users). Very happy with it!
This is a must for all Leapster owners! February 19, 2008

My 5 year old son received this game for Christmas and still thoroughly enjoys playing on it. He doesn't realise that he's "learning"! He particularly enjoys tracing the shapes and then making the lines disappear to see how well he has done. There are easy-hard mazes to follow with the pen and pictures to colour. All in all a really great and educational game for both boys and girls who like to draw, colour or write!

I originally bought this for one of my twin sons and they fought over it so much that I had to buy another. They both love it and there are no more fights.

My 5 year old son is really enjoying this game. He can trace numbers and upper or lower case letters after being shown how first, which ties in with his first year of full time school brilliantly. The game also teaches how to draw certain pictures including animations such as making it snow. You can do colouring which will teach your child about mixing colours. There is even an option to make a flick book.
To be honest, this is worth the money just for the writing practice it gives - the other stuff makes it a must have for any young child.
Surprisingly good fun for kids. April 17, 2009

I have always been a bit wary of "Edutainment". I remember early computer games when I was a child which were the worst of all worlds.
The Leapster range have alleviated that to a very large extent. My little one regularly plays Spongebob and Dora for fun, without being aware of how many basic skills she is learning at the same time. I think what I am trying to say is that the learning aspect isn't rammed down a child's throat at the expense of any fun.
With the Draw and Write title, I wasn't so sure, and put off buying it in favour of the more obviously fun titles.
I shouldn't have bothered though. As this has proved very popular indeed. More so even than Spongebog (unthinkable, I know!). Not only that, but I have seen a marked improvement in my girls writing since playing with this. Pen control has gone up dramatically, and her scribblings are much easier to identify.
I love the entire leapster range (and the tag pens they do) and would heartily recommend any of them. This one, however, is in my opinion the pick of an excellent crop.
