LeapFrog: Math Adventure to the Moon
What's the Story?
In LEAPFROG: ADVENTURE TO THE MOON Tad and Lily enlist help from their friend Edison to travel to outer space and collect moon rocks for their school assignment. The only problem is, navigating in a space ship isn't easy, and instead of landing on the moon they find themselves on a new planet. But this doesn't mean that learning can't happen! As they interact with Space Bugs, they learn about counting and grouping objects, patterns, number recognition, shapes, and more. Lily, Tad, Edison and their new friends have fun while learning and singing, and end up helping to save the planet before heading back home.
Is It Any Good?
This 33-minute show emphasizes important math skills for young learners that the LeapFrog brand often includes in games and products. Leapfrog: Adventure to the Moon is a wonderful opportunity for children to learn about numbers, counting, and patterns while also reinforcing helpful skills like making new friends and mindfulness. The show's inclusion of singing and comedy is fun, and helps children enjoy the journey of learning even more. All the learning concepts are developmentally appropriate, and the brightly colored animation draws viewers into the show.
