Is this too basic for a kindergarten kid?

Depending upon the child. My son enjoys the book because it goes through the alphabet and rhymes, the y is an example, yam and the yam says I am what I yam... there are dinosaurs, exploring emotions and counting and adding candy of the same kinds. My son enjoys it. The little games in the leap frog books are always a nice addition.

I have a 4 year old son that is going in pre-k this year and some he knows already and other parts, I see will help him be more ready for Kindergarten next year. My son loves this book. He brings it in the car were ever we go.

Not in my opinion. We bought this for my grandson who is going into kindergarten, and he loves it.

I'm still not clear what I need to buy to make this useful in my kindergarten class. I would like an Elmo but can't afford it.

You can use it out of the box. You can also go on line and get more activities. It's a great introduction to learning on computers. Very child friendly.

It's perfect size for your kindergartener, however it can be a little harder to open for little ones, but there is a small lip to pull up on so I think your kindy could do it. It does have a good seal making it great for wet things like yoghurt.

I agree with M.Bate. To simple for a "precocious" 5 yr old but it might be good for a very young 5.

No I would say this would be better for ages 1 to 5. And it would have to be a small 5 year old.

I bought it for a 6 year old. Her mom had just started University courses and was on the computer a lot, so I thought this might be fun for her "to work" with mommy. Since real computers have now entered many classrooms, I'd say for kids no older than 7 or 8 years old.

It depends upon the size of the child. My nephew is about 4 1/2 and hasn't started Kindergarten yet, but there is still room for him to grow and continue to use the desk set.

Yes. It should fit a standard folder a little snug. I bought it for my niece who is in 8th grade. The straps broke after a couple weeks, so I would not recomend it. However, it might be ok for Kindergarten.

There are some small peices. I don't think it is suitable for younger than 3 years old.

It's a small keyboard mainly just because it leaves off the separate arrow keys and numpad. The actual keys and spacing are normal size. I would still say yes it's good for a smaller kid use.

I bought this set for my daughter's kindergarten class and it was a great gift! It will be ok for a 3 year old, but it does contain some small pieces. It could possibly be a choking hazard for a 1 1/2 yr old.

I would say so, I bought it for an 11 year old girl and she was able to use it easily. Its not too complicated and is good enough to do basic observations.

I would assume that it is suitable for kids. . i would encourage you to purchase this one

I would say a little yes but I buy more advanced toys for my kids and they usually catch up with them. Also it will help them learn the alphabet too.

Yes. My 6 year old's first word was "warlord" followed by "piano" and "qualify." We have a strong reader. I think this a great way to build skills even if you play it in a more free form fashion, i.e. show all letters and see who can use 50 letters first, etc.

There might be some activities that the child might be able to partake in.You would have go through the box & see what activity (s) would be the least complicated.
