My daughter's came with a couple games (an art game and a pet game). You have to hook up to your computer to download all games. When you buy games you can purchase cartridges or download.

Yes... I have this exact game for my daughter. On the bottom right it says leap pad. Those are for both the one and two. Also if you go to a store, read the back! We bought one we thought did and when you read the fine print it did not. The packages that look like this one (even different color ones) will work fine!

Yes. The LeapFrog® App Center offers a code on the included card to download learning games, eBooks, videos and more to your LeapPad1™ & LeapPad2 learning tablets and Leapster Explorer™ & LeapsterGS game systems.

The Leap Pad 2 is what I bought for our grandsons. My understanding is that the unit must be connected to the computer and the card allows download of apps online. At checkout you enter the code from the card and it is added to the order. A lot like shopping for anything online.

According to the Leapfrog website this game works with, "LeapPad Ultra, LeapPad2, LeapPad1, LeapsterGS and Leapster Explorer." I hope this helps!

I bought both the Explorer and LeapPad for my 3 and 5 year olds for Christmas. I bought a couple of game cartridges as well as app cards. How do you install the apps in both? I was told at TRU that you could only install an app on one device. Good to know that he was wrong.

I am 99% sure you can use this to buy apps in the leapfrog app store. Just make sure you are in the tab for Leapster Explorer apps and not Leappad apps. There should be a place to input the code, I think it says REDEEM code here.

just different. Most of the games are somewhat eduational. You are limited to the games that you pay. Whereas an Ipad, you can buy many games or get them for free and have a bunch on there to switch between. We have an ipad too, but the leappad has been fun for my kids. It just depends on what you are desiring. Both are great, for different needs.

No you can't but there are a lot of other apps and games you can download onto the leapPad. You can check out the site LeapFrog.com and see all the different apps they have. There are some really good learning ones. Hope this helps.

Yes! We had the LeapPad and just purchased the LeapPad 2 and the Leapster Explorer GS for my son. The cartridges work just fine.

My mom told me she wanted to get my older girls these [ages 5.5 and 8.5] I told her to get the Leap Pad since they have games to age 9. I would think my 8 year old would be bored.

A leap pad is not a leapster, and i believe this game will not work on a leap pad. As the other answer says, if a game is made for leapster Explorer it is compatible with the Leap pad, but it looks like this game is made for the older Leapsters.

Yes all Leapster Explorer games can be used with the Leappad 2. My son has the Leappad 2 and absolutely loves it! He loved his explorer too. He has learned so much with this product. It really is amazing.

Plug the leap pad into your computer. Make sure you set up account with Leap Frog. Go to the website that's on the card. You order the games through the website that's on the card. There's a code on the app card. Put that code in the promo code box when you're in your shopping cart. This is after you select the games/books you want. :) Games range in price from $5 to $25. Hope this helps!

Yes. My kids have the stylus that came with thier Leap Pad's attached to the device itself so it doesnt get lost. I am sure you can probably get by without one for this game. But my two kids use thier stylus to play this game. I think an important part of this game is that it allows kids to practice thier grip on the pencil, and how to properly write/draw.
