My two year old son received a PowerTouch system for his birthday. According to the age recommendations he is too young for the system, but he figured out what to do very quickly, and his vocabulary has certainly been widened since he began playing with the system.
Our son’s favorite book is “Elmo’s Noisy Day” — Elmo and Zoe go all around Sesame Street with jars and bottles in which they collect all the noises they hear. On one page they sample sounds from the jungle, on another they capture the sounds of a busy street, and they even collect some sounds from outer space! I was impressed by the variety of sounds included, and I was also impressed at how some pictures contained unexpected sounds. For example, on the first pages, the hats on a coat rack each make their own sound, related to the profession each hat is associated with. In the music store, each of the four samples of sheet music in the background produce a different tune. On the spaceship, the different buttons and levers make different beeps and squawks.
When my son sits down with this book, he will page through and play with it for 20 minutes or so at a time. He has suprised me with some of the new words he has learned by hearing them in the book — he casually pointed out the tuba for me the other day by name! I can’t speak to the counting or spelling functions of the book – we just use it for the story, for music and sounds, and for naming objects. Some of the pages are beginning to get a little ragged with use, but since my son is two I am sure he is handling it a little more roughly than an older child would.
I would recommend this book for the Power Touch system because of the great variety of information a child can get from any page, and for the educational value of the information presented, especially for a younger child (2 or 3 years old).

I bought this for my 2yr old. Although the age group states its for older children, my son still has tons of fun with this system. This book is his favorite and he likes to read it at least 2-3 times per day. It is so neat that nearly every picture on the page can make a sound or tell you what it is. He learns lots of new words and is so excited about books. He loves the fact that Elmo is somewhere on every page. We have so much fun with this book and the whole system. He also has the leap frog system but reaches for this one first.
I would caution not to purchase if you don’t intend on supervising closely. He is very rough on the pages and they come out and get torn pretty easily and this happened while I was watching him closely.
5 stars
This is a very durable book. All pages were laminated so my two year old grandson can not tear the pages. He likes it very much
