The LeapFrog title "Mr. Pencil's Learn to Draw and Write" for the Leapster is a really great title in all regards except for its character recognition technology. In this clip, a 5 year old user shows her frustration with this section of the title.

  • When young children learn how to draw their letter forms, they do not have what is called "fine motor skills" - translation, they can only draw letters rather loosly and in a sloppy manner. It's what makes kids' writing unique to their age. This LeapFrog game requires that kids draw exactly on the line. A skill that requires very developed fine motor skills. Not even every adult can master this challenge as requested in the game.

  • How can anybody be a master in this game?

    Q: How can anybody be a master in this game?

    The title itself has many great animation tools for young children. Most of the title is really great. Just this one are that falls completely flat.

  • You're missing the point completely. The game was built in such a way that NOBODY can do it. Look, she's drawing right on the line.

  • my son was playing this earlier and started crying writing the numbers and drawing the 3d box. i tried it and it didnt detect it even though i did it right over and over. letters on the loose is awesome though.

  • That can be a scam to me.
