It can be argued the best toys games are ones that are both fun and educational—especially if children are part of the equation. However, the goal is to educate kids without tipping them off. The Leapfrog RockIt Twist Handheld Learning Toys Game System manages to do just that with 12 fun, but educational games that challenge the minds of children.

Why We Like It – LeapFrog RockIt Twist Handheld Learning Toys Games System

The Leapfrog RockIt Twist Handheld Learning Toys Game System comes packed with 12 unique games, providing kids fun for hours, while also strengthening their brains.

Pros
  • Comes preloaded with 12 learning games
  • Can help kids learn a wide range of skills
  • Simple game controls kids can understand
Cons
  • The screen is rather small

Performance

The RockIt Twist’s game play provides an outlet for counting, simple math, reading, science concepts, and problem solving. LeapFrog masks its educational aspect by making it a fun handheld gaming device, too. Something the RockIt Twist game and ThinkFun Laser Maze Toys Games has in common. The Wonder Forge Disney Princess Enchanted Cupcake Party Game, however, is only concerned with matching.

Part of their strategy is using virtual RockIt pets. These virtual pets can be taken care of by your kids, using games to help them grow big and strong. For physical activity, however, look to the Elite Outdoor Toys Games For Kids.

Design

What we loved most about the LeapFrog RockIt Twist Gaming System was its variety of controls. One each of its four sides are a new set of controls, up to eight, in fact. Depending on which game your child plays, the video games will require different controls such as a d-pad, spinner, and slider, to name a few. It’s a fun way to keep your kids paying attention.

However, the RockIt has a rather tiny screen, measuring about 2.5-inches. For an adult, that would be a problem, but you kids won’t even notice.

Value

If the Leapfrog RockIt Twist Handheld Learning Toys Game System only came with a single game, we’d immediately can it. But that’s not the case. Instead, the new Twist Handheld comes prepackaged with 12 unique game packs, each capable of challenging your children in fun and inventive ways.

In other words: the Leapfrog RockIt Twist Handheld Learning Toys Game System has excellent value. It can be further expanded with additional games (sold separately), giving it better value over the Wonder Forge Disney Princess Enchanted Cupcake Party Games.

LeapFrog RockIt Twist Handheld Learning Toys Games System Wrap Up

The Leapfrog RockIt Twist Handheld Learning Toys Game System is an amazing tool for kids to have fun with—all the while their brains are being sharpened. Learning can, and should be fun! And with 12 easily controlled learning games to choose from, there’s hours of entertainment. A 2.5 inch screen is small, but big enough to see what’s going on.
