Out of the mouth of babes
I was cutting open a clamshell plastic wrapper for some triple A batteries last night (that I had to run out and get). Madison’s Leapster2 had gone dead, and she was whining. Instead of paying attention to what I was doing, I was talking and looking at her when I did it. I cut a nice little V in my thumb with blood squirting everywhere. Madison’s response?
Mom, that’s why I have safety scissors.
Obviously, mom needs a pair too. Sigh.

What to do if your Leapster2 pen quits working?
We changed the batteries and Madison’s Leapster tonight. However, the pen/stylus quit working. Here’s how to fix it:
1) Ensure that a cartridge is not inserted
2) Hold down the Hint button while turning the unit on
3) When the LEAPSTER menu screen appears, press the A button
4) Touch each of the crosshairs that appear with the stylus
5) Restart unit
I’m listing it here for others and for myself, if it happens again.
