as marketing English-language products as tools for learning English as a foreign language. As of December 31,
2006, our products have been marketed and sold in six languages, including Queen’s English, Spanish, French,
Japanese and German, and in more than 25 countries. We currently sell our LittleTouch LeapPad, My First

selected China markets. Some of our key infant items such as the LeapStart Learning Table, Learning Drum and
Alphabet Pal caterpillar have also been adapted for markets outside of the United States.
