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 ...             Sibelius 5 Educational Edition6 reviews Windows, Mac OS X | Sibelius Software Ltd., 2007 Absolutely Incredible Sibelius 5 is essential music notation software for anyone who needs this sort of software--professionals, educators, students and amateurs. Sibelius is, quite simply, as powerful as it is easy to use. While, I think, many more people are familiar with Finale, and while the end product of your score would probably be the same if you used Finale, with Sibelius, it's much more fun because it's so ...             Zoombinis Logical Journey135 reviews Macintosh, Windows | The Learning Company, 2001 New MacOS installation software in 2005 version My five year old grandson and I have had a wonderful time playing with this game. We learned a lot about logic, and we learned that we have different learning styles. The 2005 version which I got from Amazon (see separate listing) has a Mac OS X installer which installed this game flawlessly in less than a minute. I have no experience with the 2001 version. Gil Steil             Mia's Math Adventure: Just In Time24 reviews Windows, Mac OS X | Kutoka, 2004 Good Education Software for Mac OS X Leopard I was led to the Mia's Math Adventure, because all indications were it would work well with the Mac OS X Leopard operating system and it was highly rated for educational content. Both assertions have proven true in our use. My eight-year old daughter love's the game and the math and logic activities are a challenge, but the story line and the "adventure" aspects of the game also keep her engaged. ...             Crazy Machines: The Wacky Contraptions Game Win/Mac124 reviews Mac OS X, Windows | Viva Media, 2005 A Great Game For All Ages This game can be called a beneficial game to play . Meaning in that it helps with people of all ages with developing problem solving and cognitive thinking;as well as being a fun game with great graphics as well.

He also loves the computer--websites, computer games etc--so to think he would enjoy this was a no-brainer. The video quality is great. It runs well on my Vista computer (without hanging up). He loves the different activities, and watching the story as it goes along through them. The child can pick their favorite engine to drive the story (Thomas, ...             Brainiversity2 reviews Windows | Brighter Minds, 2008 Great tool to keep you mind sharp If you'd like to have a fun way to keep your mind sharp or even improve your mental skills, then this is the game for you. If you're just looking for mindless entertainment, look elsewhere. I've tried a number of the puzzle-type games which have the word brain in the title and some are fun, some are not. I really wanted something that would be both fun and actually track my results so that I ...             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. ...             Bookworm Deluxe79 reviews Windows | MumboJumbo, 2006 Challenging Since I love words, I like trying to make 6 letter words. Very challenging. I've played for hours.             Reader Rabbit Reading Ages 4-65 reviews Windows, Mac OS X | Riverdeep - Learning company, 2005 I love Reader Rabbit My daughter is 3 years old and she is beginning to read. I love Reader Rabbit. The animation and the music really holds her attention. The repititon helps her to remember. There are so many educational products out there but Reader Rabbit, Richard Scary and Leap Products are among my favorites.             Bob the Builder Can-Do Zoo1 review Windows, Mac OS X | Brighter Minds, 2008 Great for little computer users. This was a present for my 4 year old grandson. He enjoyed playing the game the few days he was visiting. I don't know how often he will choose to play. He needed a little help to get started playing. It looks like he'll be able to play by himself after a few sessions. A kid-friendly mouse helped. I'm pleased that the "educational value" is pattern recognition and problem solving rather than just ...             Video Game Tycoon : GOLD EDITION : Create Your Own Video Games!5 reviews Windows | GAMESweet Software, Inc. Video Game Tycoon : Gold Edition What an incredible game!! I usually don't write reviews but I was so impressed with this that I had to share my thoughts. My son, 10 years old, is totally hooked on it. He loves being able to build his own levels and create his own game. There aren't any other games like this available. When he went to a neighbors house today he took his own game which he had burned onto a CD. They ...             Reader Rabbit Kindergarten (Jewel Case)4 reviews Windows | Encore Software, 2005 Another Great Reader Rabbit Program My grandson will be 4 years old next month and he LOVES Kindergarten Reader Rabbit software. I only have to explain him once how some of the games work and he does them now all by himself. He also has the Preschool and the Dream Tales software of the same series, so he was familiar with the same characters in Reader Rabbit Kindergarten. I definite recommend this software for ...             Jumpstart Toddler Classic (PC)5 reviews Windows, Mac OS X, Mac OS 9 and below | Knowledge Adventure, 2005 Great Fun!!! I had this game over 6 years ago for my daughter who loved it. Now my 2 and a half year old plays and laughs. Works on XP!!! It helps in teaching mouse control, letter game, number game, shapes, and has animals singing fun songs!!!

I had never seen this game until a transatlantic flight this summer and it was one of the game selections you could play at your seat. Once home, I kept thinking about it and realized I just had to get it! You will no doubt lose track of time and become engrossed in the game. I love the ability to save a game - I find I get tired of playing after awhile and if you've got a good game going you ...             The Oregon Trail: Adventures Along the Oregon Trail, 5th Edition Windows | The Learning Company This educational game is a trailblazing simulation of the historic Oregon Trail.

My granddaughter is in 4th grade and recently changed shcools to a new town. She was an "A" student in her old school, but the math program in her new school was really defeating her. Math Blaster made catching up to the advanced level of her new school easier and it is in game form. The plus to this product is that my grandson is in first grade and ...              search for software adventure, adventures, basics, blaster, bookworm, brainiversity, builder, caillou, classic, contraptions, create, delivery, deluxe, edition, educational, friends, journey, jumpstart, kindergarten, logical, machines, oregon, phonics, preschool, reader, reading, sibelius, special, toddler, zoombinis software:    Kindle - Amazon's New Wireless Reading Device This is the future of book reading.
