Reader Rabbit Math Adventure Ages 6-9 (Jewel Case)

16 reviews

Macintosh, Windows | The Learning Company, 2001

Really good for a second grader!
My twin daughters were given this gift (math adventure ages 6-9) for x-mas when they were barely six years old. At the time, this game was WAY too advanced for them, and it actually irritated me because I had to help them out so much with it. Zip forward a few years and they are now eight years old and in the second grade. I put this game on a few days ago and was amazed at how useful it is now. ...

Reader Rabbit I Can Read With Phonics 1st and 2nd Grade

Macintosh, Windows | The Learning Company, 2001

works fine on XP
Another reviewer here claims that I can Read With Phonics does not install easily on Microsoft Windows XP. NOT TRUE! I have XP and every Reader Rabbit game works perfectly on it. I own just about everyone out there, and my son (age 5) is a great fan of the reader rabbit software. This game does an excellent job of teaching reading and phonics in a fun way. If you have a child ready to learn ...

Freddi Fish 3: The Case of The Stolen Conch Shell

Windows | Humongous Entertainment

Best CD Series for ages 3.5-7
I have 3 kids and this set (Freddy Fish 1-5) has been the most popular of all of the CD-ROMs we own and is still going strong after 3 years. These are absolutely awesome. This is an interesting and interactive game in which kids do "detective" work and it also features a few basic arcade-type games during the search. Get it, your little ones will LOVE it!

Tween girls LOVE The Sims + Glamour Life!
Well, with age comes trading up from wasting money on virtual Magic Kingdom items that my kids never "touched", to this. lol Actually, this is much better! My oldest is especially hooked on ANYTHING related to The Sims. I've watched her create families and have them "live" their lives--the technology is fantastic....so why not have the SIMs look glamourous and live in lavish, stylish homes? ...

4 year old loves it!
My four YO grandson tried this out for the first time last night. His words "I LOVE my new game!" I was impressed with how easy he was pulled into the activities and the sense of acomplishment he had when matching sounds to letters and listening to the sounds and matching to words. The L sound is weird though. Doesnt sound right but for everything else it is great.

I like Oregon Trail
I'm a 9 year old boy and I like Oregon Trail. You learn a lot about the trail and life on it. You learn the hard life of sickness, snake bites, gunshots, fishing, double -teaming the animals, gathering, hunting, bear and couger injuries in the process of hunting, and shopping and trails. I like going to salt lake city insted of Oregon City because I can never make it to Oregon. I always die of ...

Zoombinis Mountain Rescue

Macintosh, Windows | The Learning Company, 2001

Great Fun For Your Kids
We Got this from a friend, it came highly rated, and it didn't disappoint. My 6-yr-old son loves this. It took him a little while to figure out some of the puzzles - it took ME a little while to figure out some of the puzzles - but is very playable and enjoyable. One caveat is there is a middle part of the game where you will play the same puzzles over and over and over again. If your child ...

Gramma says, "Buy It"!!!
When I read Khayankh's review, I thought it may be my granddaughter! They are about the same age; and must have played the game about the same time. My baby loved this game and I loved watching her play it. It is sooooo entertaining and soooo educational!! Plus, it was much fun!!!These are excellent games for anyone, teens and even adults! I always loved to buy educational games for my babies ...

Holds interest
This was great for my 3 1/2 yr old. He can explore all by himself. He loves that it's similar to big brother's I Spy games. Things make silly noises when he clicks them to add interest and entertain.

Great choice!
I purchased Mille's Math House for my four year old daughter. She is able to navigate to and from all of the activities with no supervision. She enjoys all of the games but I would have to say she probably like making the crazy looking bugs the most! Awesome product at such a reasonable price!

excellent software for young game players
If your child has played beginning software like JumpStart and is ready to move on to more advanced gameplay, Humongous Entertainment's Putt-Putt series (and Freddi Fish and Pajama Sam, as well) are an excellent choice. These titles take the cognitive tasks up a notch as children must accumulate specific items, navigate a number of locations, and use their problem-solving skills to help their ...

Wonderful program
I love this program. I used to work with disabled children and this cd was a very effective teaching tool that the kids enjoyed. The concepts are presented in an entertaining manner so that the children learn while playing. The typewriter game shows the letter in either alphabetical format or true typewriter format, which makes the program also useful for older children. You can select the degree ...
