To celebrate National Reading Month, LeapFrog has started a One Million Hours Reading Pledge and is also sponsoring a giveaway of their Tag Reading System on ten selected blogs.
We absolutely love LeapFrog products in this house. We first got hooked around 6 years ago when the girls received LeapPads for Christmas. Ever since then, we’ve had an ongoing supply of LeapFrog products and I’ve been very pleased with all of them. We haven’t tried the Tag yet, but it looks like another gadget must-have to me!
The Tag Reading System has won 16 awards in 8 countries and the Toy Industry Association named it the Best Educational Toy of 2009.

I like that it encourages independent reading and pen also interacts with pictures in the book and can be used to play simple reading comprehension games.
I’ve already pledged on two separate occasions – 10 and 20 min. Hope that counts.
I really like the fact that it has a headphone jack. We go on many car trips and my son loves to sleep in the car but unfortunetly we usually leave after work and when he naps that late he doesn’t go to bed very well. We are always trying to find new things for him to do in the car especially things that we don’t have to listen to
I pledged to read to each of my boys 20 extra minutes for a grand total of 20 Hrs and 40 mins.
I love that the review list the pros and cons of the system.
i pledged to read 20 minutes a day to my children
I learned that the pen can store what your child has done, so you can see how much they’ve read…neat! Thanks for the chance to win!
I pledged 30 minutes a day!
I subscribed via email, thanks again.

oops, that should be 20 mins a day!
I like that the pen can tell the whole story without actually having to have the book. Thank you!
I pledged to read 20 minutes a day to my youngest daughter. My oldest already has to read atleast 30 minutes a day for school. thanks again!
Reader saves user information perfect for families with multiple kiddos.
It works with both the words and the pictures.
30 minutes a day!
I like the variety of stories available. thanks for the entry

This is a great way for kids to progress from reading with a parent to independent reading. Kids love new “toys” and this makes reading more fun for them.
I signed up for the pledge! 30 minutes a day is the goal!

This looks really great! My son is just starting to read and I think this would make it so much fun for him. I love that the pen stores a profile in it and that there are sooo many book titles to choose from!
I like it that Leapfrog lets the child guess at words. This helps them learn the word through trial and error.
I like the interaction features- would help a child learn much faster with the interactive picture feature.
Thanks!
I like that the pen works on the pictures AND the words.
I subscribe.
I’m entering this contest for my nephew…I hope that this will help him love to read as much as my son did and does now as a teenager!
I pleged 10 minutes a day.
like the volume control and for car trips, the headset option…
Wow, what an interesting concept. This thing speaks the words as the optical pen rides over it. Great for teaching the kids to read. Might even be applicable for blind people
I pledged 30 min. a day a few days back when I came across it.
