Excellent, kids LOVE it!

I buy this for all my kids friends
I'm actually buying a replacement CD. My oldest daughter loved this, now my youngest daughter loves it but it got too scratched. It's great because it's so easy for them to learn and they can play it without getting frustrated (and I don't have to bail them out!) The song is nice, it's not violent, it teaches compassion and both of my girls now want to be veterinarians. My youngest was 3 when ...

Bailey's Book House (Jewel Case)

Windows | Edmark (Riverdeep), 1995

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 ...

Blues Clues ABC Time Activities (Jewel Case)

Macintosh, Windows | Atari, 2000

Fun & Educational, with Lots to Do
This game has many activities that are great for learning letters, phonics, rhyming, and more. It has been one of my son's favorites since he was 2-1/2, and now he's 4 and still loves it. As he gets older and understands more he gets different things out of it, both with regard to education and entertainment. And I like how it works, because you can skip through animations and load times are ...

Clifford The Big Red Dog Thinking Adventures

Macintosh, Windows | Scholastic, 2003

Great educational CD-rom
My son loves these CD-roms. He is almost 5 and plays them a lot. He is learning quite a bit. Plus, there are 3 different levels, so as he gets better, he gets more challenged. I'm impressed with this.

I Spy School Days (Ages 5-9)

Windows | Scholastic, 2006

Great game that is educational too!
My 4 year old loves this game and I don't feel bad if she sits and does it for a while because it is educational as well. I was worried that it may be too hard for her since she is under the recommended age but she has not had a problem with it at all. In fact, she has discovered things on it that we didn't even know about.

All of the Clifford Games Are Awesome!
We started out with Thinking Adventures, and I was so impressed, I ordered the Phonics, Reading, and now the Learning Activities. My boys (twins 5, and younger one - 3) absolutely love every one of them! All three of them will take turns around the computer for at least an hour with one of the Clifford games in. Highly recommeded!

Toy Story Animated Storybook

My son loves it
We got this for my four year old son for Christmas. He is big into Toy Story and just loves it. He will play hours at a time without a peep. With its different levels I expect he will be entertained for some time to come. Even his older sister, who is 7, enjoys playing the game. I would recommend it highly. Keep them coming Disney!

I love this game
My kids had this game in DOS when they were little. We love making cookies with the horse and if you make a mistake, the frog gets to eat it. My kids are bigger, but my nephews are a perfect age. When I saw this in cd format, I just HAD to get it. I definately recommend it.

Great Game to play with your 3 to 8 year olds
We have had hours of fun playing this game together. We have two grandsons, aged 7 & 3. They have enjoyed becoming the Pirate King over and over again. It has just the right amount of challenges and the fact that you can remodel your ship has been a source of joy for our 3 year old grandson. You can also print your achievement certificates and copies of your ships. It was well worth the money! ...

Microsoft Classic Board Games (featuring 12 all-time favorites)

Windows | Microsoft, 2000

Recommend for NT / 2000 users
I agree with the "A Disappointment" review. Their chess game is not even in the same order magnitude as ChessMaster 8000. Their other games will also fail in comparison with their full-blown 95 / 98 / ME counterparts. But ChessMaster 8000 wouldn't run on my Windows 2000 computer and neither will many of those counterparts. 95 / 98 / ME users have an abundance of game software. This is not ...

Reader Rabbit Preschool Sparkle Star Rescue

Macintosh, Windows | The Learning Company, 2001

Wonderful for a 4 year old boy
This is our favorite game, by far. It has been played far more than Dr. Seuss kindergarten, Reader Rabbit kindergarten and the Tonka games. My son is a very active, adventurous four year old and this game keeps him interested while he learns. Unlike some of the other Reader Rabbit games, this game is more adventure, less knowledge being crammed down the throat, and I think that is why he enjoys ...

Reader Rabbit Thinking Adventures Ages 4-6

The Rabbit Rules
My daughter received Thinking Adventures on Saturday afternoon and we installed it shortly thereafter. For the next three days she spent at least three hours at a time finding the various party items. The program is one of the best I have seen for children. It takes something special to keep a 5 year old glued to a computer for that amount of time and you've found it!! Thanks!

Alphabet

Macintosh, Windows | Viva Media

Brilliantly Different
This is a beautiful program. It is based on a picture book, and it literally allows your child to play with the alphabet in an explosion of color and sound. Many of the graphics resemble a child's collage. The background music is a wonderful ethereal blend of instruments and voices. If you like "world" music, you'll like this. Also this is made by a European company so you might notice some ...
