If our house was burning down, my three-year-old would want to save his plush rabbit pal Deedee, our iPad mini 2, and as many Paw Patrol toys as he could carry. He loves playing games and watching videos on our tablet, and the toys obviously come in handy when he’s hit his screen time limit, but what he really loves are toys like
Osmo, that let him use real-world objects and an iPad app at the same time.</p><p>
LeapFrog is combining a physical play experience with a digital app, offering
three new Imagicard games for kids ages 3 to 8. Kids can use the cards to play a game on one of LeapFrog’s LeapPad tablets, using the tablet’s camera to “capture” the card in the game for an augmented reality experience. But if screen time is over (hey, that tablet’s got to recharge at some point), they can still use the cards to play other games totally offline. And if you don’t have your cards with you—say, you’re in the car and it’s not practical to spread out the play mat—digital versions of the cards exist inside the game, so you can keep playing.</p><p class="jumpTag"><a href="/article/2936760/leapfrogs-new-imagicard-games-and-leappad-platinum-give-kids-new-ways-to-play.html#jump">To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here[/url]</p></section></article>
