Get on the road to school readiness with more than classroom learning. With three exciting field-trip scenarios, the Adventure Bus gets imaginations rolling while introducing children to words and ideas associated with each destination. Pretend to collect seashells on the beach, learn about fruit on the picnic and pick out stories at the library€"songs, sounds and suggestions from the Learning Friends characters are only the beginning! The Learning Friends Adventure Bus also gets fine motor skills in gear with doors that open and close, a picnic table that folds down, a stop sign that flips open for safe crossing, a spinning bus destination sign and more.
With two ways to launch each field-trip adventure and plenty of opportunities for open-ended play, the Learning Friends Adventure Bus invites each child to explore in his or her own unique way. Kids can press the driver€s seat or spin the bus destination sign to start an adventure, and hear a variety of audio responses as they roll to and from their destination. Every built-in adventure begins with a version of the song €œWheels on the Bus,€ with lyrics that change with every trip. This lays a foundation for kids to invent their own adventures: kids can sing about going anywhere and create a journey all their own.
The Learning Friends Adventure Bus comes with three interactive figurines€"Koala, Fox and Penguin€"that also work with the LeapFrog Play & Discover School Set. Bring one, two or all three along to change up the adventures, or drive them to the school to unlock a new song and phrases there. Each adventurous animal friend has its own special personality. Additional Play & Discover Learning Friends (sold separately) create new possibilities for friendship and fun.
As children enter school, they are introduced to many new experiences, and creative play is an excellent way for them to prepare and to problem solve. Designed by LeapFrog experts and tested with kids, the LeapFrog Learning Friends Adventure Bus helps foster a sense of adventure by prompting children to play within a world of distinct imaginary trips. Going beyond traditional school-bus play, the Adventure Bus offers three exciting scenarios and a host of enthusiastic Learning Friends characters who introduce new ideas and model enthusiasm for exploring. This kind of creative activity supports important developmental milestones that children experience in pre-kindergarten.
