and I would prefer some educational value.. We have a Leapster L-Max already, but the kids are starting to want something a bit more fast-paced.

Of the most popular systems, Nintendo has the most kid-friendly games.
The Nintendo DS offers Brain Age and The Big Brain Academy. They are somewhat educational I guess. They won't teach them any new information(besides mathematics) but they are supposed to "strengthen" your brain. Nintendo's website has a special genre called "Edutainment" but if you were to click on it you would find there is currently nothing there.
Besides that, any role-playing game should strengthen your child's reading skills as they'll be encouraged to learn new words that may be presented in the story.
Buuut...all I know about are the main consoles. The Leapster L-Max I had never heard of until now.

My 6 yr old has a V Tech V Smile. It teaches just about everthing you can ask for in a game system. It is usually found in the same isle as the leapster. The games are grouped by age and run about 20 dollars each.

Nintendo Game Cube. Very kid friendly. You can get Winnie the Pooh games.
