The Turbo Twist toy is addictive, but parents won t mind if their kids spend lots of time with this educational toy. These toys can be enjoyed right out of the box, though purchase of the LeapLink peripheral considerably improves the product s long-term value. The LeapZone Advantage Learning Service offers personal assessments and recommendations, customized content, and even allows the toy to call a child by name but not without a fee. The good news is that only one LeapLink peripheral is required to service all LeapZone web-enabled toys.
