Kids love it

My 4 year old preschooler and my 6 year old kindergartner love it. They had played the preview that came on their leapfrog and so I bought it because they showed a lot of interest in it. My 4 year old is normally too little to play his sisters games, or if he can he don't understand what is going on, but they both have age appropriate stuff to do with it.

Recipe Game a Big Hit!

For my grandson's 6th birthday he received a LeapPad 2 and needed games to go with it. After reading lots of reviews, I chose LeapFrog Cooking Recipes On The Road Learning Game, as well as another reading game. He was at my house this weekend, and when I asked if he'd played with the recipe game, he said, with much enthusiasm, "Oh yeah! That's my favorite! I LOVE that game." He also informed me he'd quickly finished the games that came with his LeapPad, and that the reading game I'd also given him was OK, but he let his 3-yr old sister play with THAT one. So yes, the reviews were right on, and I'd definitely recommend the "Recipe Game" for the middle age range.

Fun game, according to my daughter :)

My girl loves this game. I bought it for her right before she turned 5, so some of the math is challenging. She didn't care, though. She thinks she's a regular ole chef these days. She even asked me if I had chicken bouillon cubes so that she could make the soup that she learned about in this game, haha! So glad I purchased this for her!

LeapFrog Cooking Recipes On The Road

My son really enjoys playing this game. It is great for 4 - 7 year olds in my opinion. It has multiple levels to make the game more challenging for children who are older or more advanced.

Great leap pad game for older kids

Both of my kids love this game as they prepare food and gain new items for the food truck!

Great for children who enjoy cooking at home

My five year old loves playing this game on his Leapster GS. Months later and he is still addicted to it. So much so that he had a melt down when he lost it one day. Luckily, we found it in his play room that same day. It keeps children entertained and it's more interactive than other games. I feel at ease knowing he's learning something while he plays.

Great game for a 9 year old

My daughter loves cooking games, and this one did not disappoint. She has played out almost all the levels! It is challenging enough to keep the interest of my 9 year old, but easy enough not to frustrate my 7 year old. Fun game!

great purchase - game teaches numbers, addition, instruction-listening and yes, cooking

This is a great game! I bought it for my son at his request. First, the awesome thing is that you can cook as a boy or a girl. The idea is that you are helping out your family in the food truck. You also learn to clean. In the game, you go to different locations with your food truck, and make different meals. You are able to learn different recipes. Cooking consists of the following activities: 1.) selecting ingredients for the recipe from a pantry, a matching exercise 2.) counting a number of items (say, carrots) and moving them to a scale, adding up to a goal number. A counting game. 3.) slicing and cutting (hand-eye coordination) 4.) cooking, which is mostly following instructions, like adding ingredients at certain times, flipping the food, and taking it off the heat. 5.) selecting the right # of ingredients by recognizing numbers. over time, these become small math problems. You start with recognizing the letter 5, then into two digit numbers like 13, and finally you see 5+5= and you have to select 10. My son got a bit stuck on the last one, but I explained he just had to choose the 5's twice. It's totally do-able and teaches addition skills. The game doesn't require the child to know how to read, although I thought it would. It does require them to recognize numbers. At the end of the day, you have to clean the truck, put things away, and recycle the trash. I like that part too! I think it's a really great game that grows progressively with your child's abilities, gives lots of positive feedback, and is apparently quite fun considering he keeps going back to play more (and usually he gets frustrated by games and stops playing after, say, 15 minutes).

Great game.

My 7 yr. old son loves it! Great game.
