Being a father of two children, I can tell you from first-hand experience that you have to adjust your methods of communicating as your children grow older. It used to be pretty easy to spell words out when you didn’t want your kids to know what you were talking about. It typically wears off after a few years, but until that time comes you can enjoy the secret code talk. This Leapfrog toy ruined that forever, in a good kind of way.
