Review & Giveaway: Leapster My Amusement Park

When my son was 4, I — or rather Santa — brought him a Leapster. His aunt and uncle purchased a couple of games. It was the toy I took a gamble on. He had asked for a Spiderman playset and a castle, but not the Leapster. I made the “leap” because he had spent a few months admiring/begging to use his sisters’ Nintendo DS. There was no way he was ready for a Nintendo DS, but the Leapster looked sturdy and educational.

At 6 years old, he still plays the Leaspter. It’s perfect for car trips or quiet moments at home. He started with a couple of easy games, for example, Leapster® Learning Game: Cars and Leapster Go Diego Go!
but has moved on to games like Leapster Arcade: Number Raiders.

I — or rather my son — had the chance to play with leapster-my-amusement-parkLeapster: My Amusement Park. This game is ages 6-9. The suggested retail price is $24.99 and it is available in stores now! His verdict: Awesome. He’s a person of few words!

The game features thinking games to build and maintain attractions, customization of rides and food venues, game booths that feature 3 fast-paced arcade style games, a bank with money to keep the park running smoothly, and helpful hints and tutorials.

    I first started playing on the Atari 400. My favorite game was Joust.

    I actually didn’t play electronic games at all growing up…we were po’. 🙂

    Probably the first game I ever played was online jeopardy as an adult.

    I’d love to win this game for my son! We’re giving him the Leapster2 for Christmas and he’d love this game.

    I guess it was around 1987 when I got my first Nintendo
