Tag Junior Demonstration from Leapfrog

Warren Buckleitner of Children's Technology Review has a first look at Tag Junior. The size of a fast salt shaker this adaptation of last year's Tag Reading system is designed to help younger children (ages 2-4) get ready to read by letting them "touch and hear" various paragraphs or illustrations in a set of accompanying books.

I stand corrected although the process was not available when this video was made. I think this is a smart move by Leapfrog, don't you?

The technology is neat...the little mirror reflects dots into the "pen" IRDs is the technology. ITs not actually "reading" it is recognizing what you've downloaded to it!

I have actually! ^_^ I can't link you. But you just go to "Audio Downloads" and scroll ALLLL the way to the bottom- on the right click the little picture of the Tag Junior book pal and download the Junior audio from there. ^_^

There is one falsehood at the end- It *is* compatible with Tag, but you have to download the Junior audio to your Tag first. :)
