about Leapfrog leapPad...

[skohng]

hi all,

I'm not too familiar with leapfrog besides the learning table, which ds has played with EVERY DAY since 6 months old! (he's 16 months)

I went to a friend's house, her 2yo has a little touch leap pad, i think it's called? it looks like a puzzle, with cut-outs of trains and planes, etc, and when you push in the shape it makes the noises.

my ds LOVED it. but I'm wondering if it's compatible with other "games" or cartridges or whatever. I keep seeing leapPad stories -- can you interchange stories or do you have to buy each separately? sorry if this is a dumb question.

thanks!

Each Leap Pad "system" has it's own cartridges/games. Little Touch is different than My First, which is different than anything branded just LeapPad. So yes, you'd have to buy seperate cartridges/stories/games for each different system you buy.
