**Skills and Games**
Word Building
Arrgh. Some of SpongeBob's friendly jellyfish have letters inside them. There is a water cannon that can be used to knock the letters out. On the first level, children are shown the last two letters in a word: such as _ a t. They can `free' letters which then float up to fill in the blank to make a word such as hat, cat, etc.
[I have noticed this is helping my preschooler `get' the entire word building concept.]
Phonics and Attributes
In this silly and fun game [even mom likes!], Patrick must move around three conveyor belts collecting objects. Sometimes these objects are just anything that is `yellow' and sometimes the objects are shapes, items with start with a certain letter, items grouped and equaling a certain number of things, and in the advanced round: items which are grouped and equal to an equation such as (8-3).
Money and Addition
SpongeBob is at one of those grab-a-prize machines. He gets to try to grab something if he has the right amount of change.
[This has been great for my kindergartener and preschooler. The latter can now identify various coins, while the former is learning not only to count change (for example, that 4 quarters make a dollar) but also to count by 5's and 10's.]
Music
There is a fun section in which children can play around with instruments and sounds.
Five Stars. [A]. Better background story than most of the cartridges. Better graphics other Leapster cartridges. Lots to learn. Good humor for all ages.

My boys are all big SpongeBob fans, so it was no surprise that my five year old loves this game. He loves to count out the coins to play the "claw machine" game. We have about 8 leapster games and this one rates in the top two!Best Deals for Leapster L-MAX SW Game: Sponge Bob(Lic.)
If you have diehard spongebob fans in your house, be sure to grab this game. It is a lot of fun for the games sake and it teaches how to count change, some math and introductory word formation. However, if Spongebob gets on your nerves when he's on television, it's worse with this game! I think of all the games we have, this one is the least challenging for my five-year-old. The Batman game provides more of a challenge and it seems to be more fun for him. This game is just okay, and isn't played as much as I thought it would be. My five-year-old loves Spongebob, but this game just isn't as much fun as some of the others, especially Letters on the Loose, Batman, Spiderman (all spelling and word formation, fantastic game!), and Number Raiders.Honest reviews on Leapster L-MAX SW Game: Sponge Bob(Lic.)
My almost 6 year-old loves this game. He doesn't even realize he's learning and we're looking forward to having his L-Max on long trips.Find helpful customer reviews and review ratings for Leapster L-MAX SW Game: Sponge Bob(Lic.)
We bought this cartridge for the Leapster. Our grandchildren have been using it non stop. It certainly holds their interest and was a great purchase
