Scope and sequence, the company says, focuses on identifying what children learn as well as how and when they learn it, including their ages and stages of development. The Learning Path Web site, as with all of LeapFrog's products, was designed using the company's proprietary "scope and sequence" methodology, created by its team of curriculum designers in conjunction with the company's 10-member educational advisory board.

It will also suggest activities tailored to individual kids' needs (for example, having children with trouble reading pick out particular letters or words on different food packages during trips to the supermarket). The site will reveal the games that each child plays, the number of times he or she plays them, and the skills they're designed to teach.

Learning Path enables parents to use the Web to follow their kids' performance, download new games to LeapFrog devices as well as communicate with educators and even other parents through a community site.Įach time a child finishes playing with one of LeapFrog's USB-enabled toys-including the new Tag reading device or Didj handheld gaming system-parents will be able to view the results by connecting the toy to their PC or Mac and visiting the company's Learning Path site, set to go live in May.

LeapFrog this week announced its new "Learning Path" strategy, which includes Web-based programs designed to guide children through the company's extensive lineup of devices for developing reading, math and other skills. When it comes to parental inquiries about school, children generally respond with a shrug and, if they're lucky, an obligatory "nothing." Parents, of course, know better, and will soon be able to track their kids' abilities and smarts thanks to LeapFrog Enterprises, Inc., the Emeryville, Calif., manufacturer of technology-based learning aids.
