Purple Alphabet Pal
Green Alphabet Pal
The Alphabet Pal Caterpillar is a alphabet toy of LeapFrog Enterprises introduced in 1999 (remodeled in 2001, and 2008). In this alphabet toy, Alphabet Pal has 26 feet which each contains a letter of the alphabet from A to Z. The vowel buttons are colors red, while the consonants are colored yellow, green, or blue. (In 1999 models, the alphabet buttons had a specified pattern: red, green, yellow and blue).
Most of the Alphabet Pals have uppercase letters, though some have lowercase letters. Alphabet Pals come in a variety of colors, such as purple, green, orange, red or pink. Edison is on the caterpillar.
Alphabet Pal uses three AA batteries.
Modes
- Off - This turns off the alphabet toy. To preserve battery life, the Alphabet Pal says, "Thanks for learning with Leap Frog, bye-bye!" and automatically turns itself off after 15-30 seconds of non-use. The unit can be turned on again by pressing any button or changing the modes.
- Letter Names - Touch a letter to hear its name.
- Letter Sounds - Touch a letter to hear its sound. Starting with 2001 models, Alphabet Pal can not say curse words, it instead giggles and says "That tickles!"
- Colors - Touch a colored foot to hear the name of the color.
- Music (introduced in 2001 models) - Touch a letter to hear a song whose name mostly begins with each letter from Are You Sleeping? to Z-Wait for the Wagon.
- Edison introduces his name to the alphabet song.
- Alphabet Pal sings the ABC song when you pull him.
