 disappointed...poor quality for the $ February 23, 2010
Happy New Mom (NJ)
I bought this for my 3.5 year old son for Christmas as he loves Superwhy and asked for a Superwhy computer. Seemed like it would be a great toy to reinforce learning from the show.
Overall, I wouldn't recommend it to a friend because
1) the sound quality is so bad it's really hard for my son and any adult to understand what letter sounds they are asking for; therefore it is frustrating for my son to learn as neither he or I can get the answers right
2) the graphics are really low budget and it is hard to distinguish the V from a Y for example
3) you are supposed to use the why writer and touch the screen but you have to touch the screen perfectly for it to respond so my son ends up tapping on the screen a half dozen times to get it to respond
4) keypad letters are also hard to push and have to get it just right for the computer to respond
5) the superwhy theme song plays in the background the entire time and it will drive you up the wall if your kid is playing for even 5 minutes (just think what 20 minutes of the song will do to any sane adult
6) it takes a long time for the computer to register your answer and respond if you get it right or wrong that the pace of the game will drive any quick or active child to look for something else to do.
The good qualities are that it is superwhy so it had recognition points from my son and he is willing to put up with the poor quality just to see his characters on the screen and this toy seems really durable.
Maybe I got a lemon, but I don't think so. For the price, I expected better. There are much better computers out there with better graphics, sounds and learning games for about half the price but aren't licensed SuperWhy. Bummed when I saw a computer at Target for literally more than half off. Bought that computer and am giving it to my son for his fourth birthday to replace this one.

My 5 year old daughter has been asking for this computer for months..so we gave it to her for Valentines day and she LOVES it..she has been playing with it non-stop. She loves Super Why and really learns alot from that show. So this computer was perfect for her and it is helping her with her reading and vocaulary skills. Very happy with it.
 We like it February 14, 2010

We gave this to our 4 year old grandson for Christmas and he also received something from Leapster. He plays with both an equal amount of time. Some days it's one and some days it's the other and some days it's none.
A lemon or just bad toy??? February 3, 2010
Thea Key (Washington, DC)
This toy has not really worked sine the day we got it. Maybe we got a lemon, but it has basically been useless. It's really unfortunate because I thought it could be a great tool for my daughter to learn her words.

We looked at a lot of child computers before we purchased this one. This is great. It teaches our grandson so many things and the touch screen makes it even better. He uses it all the time. It is inexpensive considering all it does.
