Leap Frog is the leading maker of educational and developmental toys. Leap Frog games and toys help children learn and grow and also keep them entertained.

The Learn and Groove Leap Frog Musical Table is a multi-sensory educational and developmental toy that grows with your baby. It combines music, lights, sounds, and tactile features that keep children entertained and stimulate their senses. There are several reasons that this toy is a good buy, including its ability to adapt as your child grows.

First of all, the Leap Frog Musical Table has adjustable legs that you can switch out as your baby begins to stand up and grows taller. Once your baby is able to sit up, they can enjoy this toy without the leg attachments and use it on the ground. Once your child is toddler-sized and learning how to stand up, you can attach the legs to transform the toy into a table, and the toy will help them stand up on their own. The removable legs also make the Musical Table easier to transport when you're on the go.

Unlike developmental toys designed for super-short in-between stages of your child's growth, this Leap Frog system is designed for children who are 6 months old up to 3 years old, giving you plenty of use before your child outgrows it.

The Musical Table is a good investment when you consider that your child can probably enjoy it for about two and a half years. You can find the Musical Table on Amazon.com for about $40 USD, and usually this will include free shipping.

The Leap Frog Musical Table features both English and Spanish lessons, and features:

• Numbers
• Counting
• Alphabet
• Shapes
• Colors
• Opposites
• First words in English and Spanish

There are two modes on the table, including the Learning mode and the Musical mode. In the Learning mode, kids can practice the learning lessons listed above. In the Musical mode, they can listen to the collection of melodies and practice along with their table instruments like the piano keys and maracas. This helps kids' listening skills and their ability to distinguish different rhythms.

The different gadgets and gizmos on the table surface help kids with their motor skills, including opening and closing things, pushing and pulling, and spinning objects around.

There is another musical table on the market that is very similar to the Leap Frog Musical Table, which is the Fisher-Price Laugh and Learn Musical Table. This table works in almost the same exact way, but has an emphasis on different characters that talk to you child and encourage them to do the activities. The activities also promote standing and walking around the table, helping your child feel more comfortable on his or her feet. The cost of the Fisher-Price Musical Table is slightly more expensive than the Leap Frog model—about $48 USD on Amazon.com. Instead of the "Musical mode" that the Leap Frog table has, the Fisher-Price table has an "Imagination mode."

The value of the Learn and Groove Leap Frog Musical Table (as well as the Fisher-Price Musical Table) lies in the fact that it helps kids develop both physically and intellectually—with standing up, recognizing letters, colors, sounds, rhythms, and learning words in both Spanish and English. It provides the benefit of several toys combined.

Finally, the Leap Frog Musical Table requires 3 AA batteries to operate, which are not included. The product measures 21.00 x 5.40 x 15.40 inches, and weighs about 6 lbs.
