Dear Parent,
We at LeapFrog know that you are your child’s most important teacher. Our goal is to help you build an environment for your child that is rich in experiences—one that encourages discovery and fosters learning success.
Twist & Shout™Multiplication teaches children how to combine numbers through multiplication, while indirectly introducing them to division. Twist & Shout Multiplication also helps to develop reasoning, logic and problem solving skills.
Children learn math equations and numbers tables most easily when they are presented in order: one number set at a time. That learning process is what makes Twist & Shout Multiplication such a powerful product. Catchy music adds a reinforcing rhythm to aid memorization and enhance the fun! Presented as a game, learning the times tables can be engaging – even a blast!
LeapFrog®learning toys are designed to grow alongside your child through each stage of development. All are made with the same playful spirit that promotes a lifelong love of learning. For additional information on how to make learning fun and effective, visit our Web site (www.leapfrog.com), where you’ll find tips from parents and educators. We hope you’ll join us there.
Sincerely,
Mike Wood
