I bought my granddaughter a cool new toy this past weekend. It's the Fridge Farm Magnetic Animal Set from LeapFrog. I knew she liked to play with refrigerator magnets and when I saw this I thought she woul dreally enjoy it and she does. From the LeapFrog web page:

 

Practice matching skills and exercise the imagination. Inquisitive toddlers discover how to pair the front halves of farm animals with the back halves—forming five complete critters—or mix up the magnetic-backed pieces to create lots of imaginary animals.

Every mix or match introduces animal names, sounds, fun facts and lively learning songs. Play with the Fridge Farm set on the refrigerator or floor, or take it on the go. The pieces fit neatly in a compartment on the back. A built-in handle makes it easy to carry.

This is an award winning toy that cost's $15 from Target and is well worth the money. My grandaughter enjoys the music and carrying the pieces back and forth between the fridge and the dishwasher. When she is older and starting to learn the alphabet wewill check out the Fridge Phonics Magnetic Set.

I really like the LeapFrog toys. They are well built and durable, plus they combine technology, fun and learning in a well balanced package.
