 10-year-old software incompatible with Windows XP June 28, 2008
This software was published in 1998, written for Windows 3.1. The setup has been slightly modified to install on Windows 95. It forces installation of an old version of QuickTime for Windows 3.1, and will only run at a screen resolution of 640 x 480 pixels. My 15" laptop LCD screen is 1024 x 768 pixels, so this runs only on a 9" diagonal section of the screen.
Since it was not written for XP, plan on letting your kindergartener run with admin privileges, as it's the only way this software will run, if you can ever get it to install.
It was nice that the publisher took the time to update the box with claims that it's XP-compatible. It would have been nicer if they had actually spent a few hours updating the software so that it actually was XP-compatible.
 4 year old loves it and so do I!!!! May 2, 2008
My 4 year old (4 years 2 months) LOVES these games and can do most of them. They are challenging enough that he is learning but simple enough that he can do most of them. Also, there is a GREAT variety so he can learn lots of different pre-k skills, and not get bored. Better still, each "game" within this has 3 levels of difficulty, so the game will grow with his skill. The graphics and story line and animation are perfect, just enough to keep his interest and help him through the game, but not so much that you spend all your time watching rather than playing. After a couple of days, he is able to find his way around the game with little help from Mom and can easily spend and hour or more playing at a time. He loves these games!!!

My 4 yr old twins LOVE this!! March 31, 2007
My 4yr old twins love this and they take turns with each game. They love the music and it is a great tool for matching, math and reading. Rarely do I find something to play with that BOTH kids love and this is one of those rare occaisions.
Love this product! October 23, 2006
This is a great product. My kids love to play it. It is one computer "game" that I can feel good about. Also, the songs and games are not dumbed down. They are clever and cute. I don't mind sitting down and playing with them.
