Customer Reviews:
Customer Rating: Summary: Franklin KID-1240 Children's Talking Dictionary/Spell Corrector Comment: My granddaughter who is 6 just loved this talking dictionary. She is starting to read (pretty well, actually) and sometimes asks her parents what a certain word means. Also, she on occasion asks how to spell certain words. When she started using this item, she immediately loved it! It is a lot easier for a six year old to use an electronic gadget to "look up" a word than to use a dictionary. So this turned out to be exactly what I was looking for. Additionally, she loves the games, especially "Hangman". I would recommend this item to parents and grandparents as a neat gift for a 6-9 year old who is reading. It was everything I hoped it would be. Customer Rating: Summary: Unsatisfactory Comment: It was almost impossible to install the batteries, the voice was not clear enough and the batteries went out way too quickly Customer Rating: Summary: Great Comment: This is a great product. My 10 year old and 8 year old (who has Down Syndrome) are really using this, and they love the games. Customer Rating: Summary: IEP Comment: My daughter has an IEP in school and this product was recommended by her teacher. She can use it while reading books when I am not around. If she types in the word she can't read then it will speak it back to her and she will have a better understanding of the book. I think its a great product. Thank you! Customer Rating: Summary: Franklin KID-1240 Children's Talking Dictionary and Spell Corrector Comment: My son is non verbal and he uses this product to talk. He types his words in and then hits speak. It is well priced, a great size for him to carry around and the voice is very clear.
