Leap Frog Count Along Cash Register

I've spent more time taking this toy apart and putting it back together than my son has spent actually playing with it. You see, he's too little to realize that if the till drawer isn't closed all the way, the coins will get stuck behind it. So I am constantly having to unscrew all the tiny screws, pry this toy apart, and free the coins. I think next time, the whole thing will just go in the garbage.

I really liked the concept of this toy, but the design is really bad. My daughter had placed the coins when the drawer was open and the coins will get stuck behind the cash register drawer. I have yet to figure out how to unscrew the bottom, so I have had to forcefully close the drawer and hope that the coin "slips" through the back between the upper half and the bottom half of the cash register. I have had to tell my 4 year old daughter that she can't put coins in, unless the drawer is closed. That is really hard concept for a 4 year old to remember. I have always liked Leap Frog products, but this was a huge disappointment.

If the coins are inserted while the drawer is open they fall behind the drawer and get stuck. The whole bottom has to be unscrewed to fix the problem. This is a terrible design.

Kids love playing with play food and coins. They use their imagination and really get a feel for what its like work at a grocery store being a cashier. The Count Along Register helps kids with learning skills such as numbers, counting and colors. Making them familiar with these helps to reinforce them in their learning environment and they remember them in long term and in real situations. I love that there is a volume control as well as little requests from the register to clean up isles, and pick up different types of fruit. The fun little songs get my little one Dancing and shaking his little butt. Its so fun to pay for grocery's too by adding them to the slot on the top of the register or by opening the drawer. The fruit is a great size for little hands and this comes with 20 pieces total which includes Fruit, grocery items, 10 coins and a shopping card. The register pad is fun and colorful and really inviting. The cute little voice is adorable and little one's kids want to have a conversation with the register as it talks. It's super cute. Even my older kids want to come over and play when my grandson is playing. It's fun play time with little one's

Abby and Charlotte (2 and 5) absolutely loved this toy! They enjoyed the realistic play of scanning the objects and loved the cash register screen that looks similar to a smartphone. At 2 Charlotte focused her attention on scanning items, pushing buttons on the screen, scanning her debit card and placing the coins in the machine. 5-year-old Abby enjoyed making sure she paid with the "right" amount of money. With over 50 phrases and songs, this toy is likely to keep your children busy and having fun for a long time! Fun for kids and worth the price.
