Franklin KID-1240 Children's Talking Dictionary/Spell CorrectorNovember 19, 2008 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.

It was almost impossible to install the batteries, the voice was not clear enough and the batteries went out way too quickly

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.

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!

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.
