My First LeapPad - Leap's Big Day FULL Runthrough
Вставка
- Опубліковано 25 сер 2024
- Welcome to the VERY first My First LeapPad book runthrough video on my new channel! As the 3rd video in my series "My First LeapPad," I am FINALLY making book runthroughs for this toy! Bringing back GREAT memories from the awesome early 2000s (2000-2004) for you guys!!! :)
Originally released in 2001, the My First LeapPad is a spinoff product of the regular LeapPad aimed towards kids aged 3-6. The books are flipped vertically instead of traditionally for the og LeapPad. More information about this toy is on the first video (Circuit Bent My First LeapPad) if you wanna learn more!
Leap's Big Day (2001) is the name of the DEMO book for the My First LeapPad (when compared to Leap Into Learning for the regular LeapPad). It is the ONLY book for this toy that does NOT require a cartridge to work, and it belongs to the Discovery section of the My First LeapPad library. Compared to the regular LeapPad demo book, THIS ONE has two sides! A story side about Leap trying to get his favorite kite back, and an activity side featuring fun learning activities with EVERYONE from Alphaville (the town where Leap, Lily, Tad, etc. live in). The narrator for this demo book is Christiane Crawford (on both sides), while the narrator for SOME of the games is Julie Stevens.
The story for Leap's Big Day is quite simple! It is about Leap, the OLDEST of 3 kids in the Frog Family, LOSING his favorite kite whilst being outside on his skateboard. Through VARIOUS modes of transportation (train, boat, plane, hot air balloon, bus), he sets off to catch the kite! As soon as Leap comes back home, he tells EVERYONE in his family about the "big day" he has had. BUT, we see that Leap's favorite kite has been lost, AGAIN! :(
The activity side features the following activities (and a brief description of each).
Counting Farm - Leap (as a farmer) is working on the farm and helps us out by counting animals. The song "I'm Farmer Leap" will be used in a future intro of mine! :)
Shapes and Colors - Leap, Lily and Tad drive strange looking cars.
Mystery Game - We see Lily and Tad discovering random objects that make silly everyday sounds.
The Paper Piano - A 17 key piano on a piece of paper! You can switch instruments to trumpet, clarinet and band (that's basically the piano, clarinet and trumpet all in one). Touching on ALL of the instruments in the music game will make them play "Itsy Bitsy Spider" and "If You're Happy and You Know It." Here, you'll hear me play fragments of REAL songs (compared to JUST playing the musical scale from low C to high E)!
What Will I Be Today? - Leap imagines what he wants to be when he grows up! Will he be a doctor, a mailman (called a postman in British English), or a firefighter?!
Parts of the Body - Casey's OWN page has us learn about the parts of our body. A twisted rendition of the popular nursery rhyme "Heads, Shoulders Knees and Toes" can be created by YOU when touching the music game icon. Otherwise, when touching the lilypad icon with your pen, you'll IDENTIFY body parts.
Count and Sing Express - Leap and his friends ride a train whilst counting and playing music!

Well guys, I have NOW began doing My First LeapPad book runthroughs! Unlike various other LeapPad UA-camrs, I will actually do FULL runthroughs. Not partial! You may have found one of the only LeapPad UA-camrs who has dared himself to tackle the complete books!
Anyways, the first book on my channel is Leap's Big Day, the demo book! From 2001. My talking has been minimized in this video for maximum enjoyment! Of hearing pretty much all the sounds and dialogue in the book when activated by the magic pen! I also was actually able to PLAY the paper piano. And play fragments of the following songs on different musical instruments!
1. The Backyardigans Theme Song (on trumpet)
2. Dreamscape - 009 Sound System (piano notes slowed down to sound like synth)
3. Windows 7 Startup Sound (on piano)
4. Spongebob Squarepants Theme Song (on piano; nose flute notes played on trumpet)
5. Christmas (Baby Please Come Home) - Mariah Carey (on various instruments)
The last song is, yes, my cover of a Christmas song that has been released this July (because Christmas in July, why not?) but it is one of my favorite holiday tunes to listen to! The song ALONE is actually a cover of Christmas (Baby Please Come Home), originally by Darlene Love. You're sure to love hearing this again LATER during the real holiday season that is in BOTH November and December! :)
I remember this when I was younger!
So do I!
I MISS HAVING IT SO MUCH😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 THANKS SM JASON FOR UPLOADING THIS😍😍😍😍
Me too! That's why I had to purchase the sacred My First LeapPad (and a copy of Leap's Big Day) off of eBay! It is becoming VERY rare to find, just so you know! It's so nice to finally be able to see Leap, Lily, Tad and all their friends in their ORIGINAL looks again! Their ugly new looks since 2008 or 2009 make me cringe. Pretty sure that you LOVED my paper piano covers of iconic songs (they were all done BY EAR, by the way). Especially the last one, which is a popular Mariah Carey holiday tune actually being a cover of a Darlene Love Christmas song! That I love listening to so much during the holiday season.
And no problem Evan. Anything to bring back the good ol' days of 2000s and 2010s for you (I am the ULTIMATE nostalgia god after all)! As the 2020s absolutely suck compared to those first 2 decades of the 21st century, in which I grew up in! Everyone can pretty much agree with me on that.
