"Learning is fun when you read and play the “PBS KIDS SPROUT” way! Yay!" - the Sprout gang  
== HERE ARE SOME IMPORTANT THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW ==
* The Sprout character voices are all the ORIGINAL performers of the characters, and you know it!!
* Many of the Sprout characters had character traits to make kids get to know the characters better.
* The games use a combination of puppets and live actors (both adults and children; one of these is a new member who appears in 6 of these books, and there are new child actors/actresses, who are best known for Yo Gabba Gabba and other shows, portraying the kids. The number of kids in the books vary from 3 to approximately 25 or 27.).
* The crew also wanted to expose children to the songs, music and sounds of the Sprout-related LeapPad games - putting a new face on old classics and well-loved songs from the show. In the original recordings, the crew worked with The Sprout All-Star Band—the musicians from the Sprout band who are some of New York’s finest studio musicians—to create a brilliant, melodic sound.
* During the songs, the crew also brought in a professional group of singers and a children's chorus consisting of Broadway starlets. 
* Geni Sackson uses the Roland D-50 (some of the instruments), Roland JV-1080, Yamaha DX7, E-MU Proteus Pop-Rock (the same console which was also used by Joe Phillips/Joseph Phillips (JP Productions, inc.) for Seasons 4-6 in "Barney & Friends"; three of these instruments were used: Acoustic Piano; Verb Flute; Wide Marimba﻿), E-MU Proteus 2 Orchestral (the same console which was used by Bob Singleton for Seasons 1-3 in "Barney & Friends" (a majority of strings, woodwinds, brass and percussion instruments were used) as well as Joe Phillips/Joseph Phillips (JP Productions, inc.) who used it too), E-MU Proteus 3 World (some of the instruments), E-MU Emax II (some of the instruments, including South American Pipes), Roland Super JX/MKS-70 (electric piano sounds), and Yamaha TX81-Z (some of the instruments) for the background music/musical effects in the 1999-2000 games, and Roland GM Hypercanvas and Miroslav Philharmonik 1 (flute (the one heard in "Barney & Friends", Season 7-present), breathy vibrato flute (also on Miroslav Reason Refill), oboe, clarinet, bassoon (the ones heard on the TV show "Jay Jay the Jet Plane")), for the background music/musical effects in one of the 1999 games (Elmo’s Sing-Along Guessing Game), as well as the 2001-04 games. We guessed that she fairly used a good amount of these for the original versions of the underscore compositions.
* Guy Moon uses IK Multimedia's Sampletank, as well as a few E-MU Proteus consoles for the original versions of the underscore compositions.
* Norman Mamey uses a digital concert piano sound for the original versions of the underscore compositions.
* Tom Armbruster uses the E-MU Proteus consoles, as well as a few Roland SC modules, too, in which you have heard these in the Nickelodeon show, "Angry Beavers", for the original versions of the underscore compositions.
* The sound effects - edited and produced by Dick Maitland - make things come alive and magical, so the kids can experience true, learning fun.
* The final results are what you hear on the LeapPad player, including all the voices, music, songs and sounds.
