abc back pack
by far my sons favorite toy. I can't believe right off the bat he was writing his abc's. so many options from finding the letters and lesrning the animals... it shows upper and lower case! its like a puzzle having the letters come out and putting them back! we loved this!! hours of learning and its a back pack. he can take it anywhere “The product has been provided by VTech/LeapFrog free of charge so I could experience it with my family; however, the thoughts and opinions are all my own.”

Disappointed. It arrived defective.
We received this product today and upon opening it we found that the item has defects on the magnetic screen. Like little clusters of dead pixels. It is visible with everything erased and you also can't draw over them. See images.

    Great intro to the abcs
    My son is nearly 3 and hasn't really gotten into writing. He's knows his alphabet, but loses interest after playing with the letters. I think as he gets older he'll get the concept of the games offered by this toy. For now he's content with playing with the removable letters. Definitely for older toddlers.

    Great educational toy
    I got LeapFrog Mr. Pencil's ABC Backpack as sample to try and opinion is my own. Step by step on a learning adventure with Mr. Pencil and the Mr. Pencil's ABC Backpack. This one of a kind toy lets toddlers interact with the alphabet in awesome ways. Using the write and erase board, kids can practice letter writing and drawing with Mr. Pencil. The screen shows how to write each letter step-by-step and then shows how to turn each letter into animals. Inserting the 26 letter pieces into the letter spaces teaches the letter name, letter sound, an animal that begins with that letter and more. Little learners can play seven different activities and when they're done, the plastic backpack holds all the pieces inside. Clip the backpack closed and wear like a real backpack for learning on the go. Draw, learn and get going! Intended for ages 3+ years. Requires 2 AA batteries.this toy is with great quality, ease of use,valuable, easy to carry,great performance.

    Leapfrog abc pencil backpack the best
    Oh my gosh, I was really surprised how educational this toy is for kids. Its very easy to use, carry, store. My son just loved this. Hes in preschool and the best educational toy ever. It teaches them so much, number, letters, writing. Something that teaches but also entertaining to them. Easy to use for them too. When your done just close and carry. Every child needs this before entering kindergarten. They will learn on their own with this toy.

    Really cute!
    The Mr. Pencil's ABC Backpack has a been a big hit with our little guy! He's four, so it's perfect for his age. It's so cute and looks like a backpack with straps he can wear on his back. There are all kinds of games he can play by pressing the different activity buttons. There are also letters he can press and it tells him which letter it is and gives an example of a word that starts with that letter. There's a place for him to write and erase like the old game etch a sketch, so he can practice writing his letters. There's activities like finding an animal that starts with the letter he chooses...he likes that one! And I like the two volume control settings! There are also activities that work with upper case and lower case letters so this will grow with him. I recommend this educational toy!

    Mr. Pencil's ABC Backpack
    Leap Frog did it again with Mr. Pencil's ABC Backpack. A backpack that looks like a real backpack with everything fitting inside for ease of bringing anywhere. I love that this teaches phonics , both writing & spelling. Animation teaches them letter names, writing, phonics, & drawing. Including is activity buttons, puzzle spots, eraser, LCD screen, volume switch, letter pieces, strap, writing board, & stylus. The cutest thing I found with this is the pencil face~ makes me want to participate & draw. So cute!!! Atticus understood this very easily & really enjoys playing & learning. I love that it's so easily portable for the car.

    Cute toy that teaches and helps the kids. I just wish it was a little lighter to carry around for the kids. It hurts when they drop it on their toes :)

    Go-With-Me ABC Backpack
    We have been LeapFrog fans for a very long time now and they have never let us down. The LeapFrog Go-with-Me Backpack is so great, It has two volume controls, both are very clear and easy to understand, 26 letters that can be removed and replaced like a puzzle, 7 buttons for different activities, a LCD screen to show how to draw different letters and other activities. The colors are great and bright. The screen erases well. Teaches letter names and sounds. My daughter(6) loves turning the letters into different things. Easy to just grab and go. Thank you LeapFrog for another great product. The product has been provided by VTech/LeapFrog free of charge so I could experience it with my family; however, the thoughts and opinions are all my own.”
