An innovative vocabulary-learning tool for new and seasoned readers of all ages

When 5-year-olds can operate a home-entertainment system and play around with an iPhone on their own, it’s no surprise they can learn to read with a high-tech gadget. The Tag Reading System is an interactive-book and electronic-pen that adds challenging learning activities to popular stories. Brand-new readers use the Tag, which also has a speaker, to click on a page and hear the story read aloud. Older bibliophiles (say, 7 and 8 years old) can read on their own and click only the words that stump them. Each story has a cast of character-voices, and its own set of learning games that boost story comprehension, pronunciation, and word identification. The starter system comes with a hilarious Ozzie and Mac book.

Price: $50
For ages: 4 to 8
Available at: Leapfrog.com
