1 out of 5 stars do not get this software!   September 13, 2001
7 out of 8 found this review helpful

I got this CD for my daughter when she turned 2 1/2. Now she is three and still frustrated! The instructions are hard to understand, most of the time the characters just stand there, expecting the child to guess what needs to be done next. The games are boring and discouraging. Don't waste your money!


1 out of 5 stars Bought it. "Lost" it.   September 8, 2001

I got JumpStart Preschool, because my son really enjoyed the Pooh Toddler game. Ugh!

The JumpStart series is totally rewards based. How many Preschoolers do you know who need a reward for playing a computer game? At this age, the fun of exploring and learning are motivation enough to keep the child interested in the game. The "rewards" detract from the experience, focusing the child on "earning" another train ride, rather than on the task they are trying to master.

The game also discourages creativity, with rigid requirements to earn each "train ticket."

This one is definitely not a keeper!


2 out of 5 stars Not an Improvement   July 4, 2001

This Deluxe version is not an improvement of the original. The Travel agency feature is too difficult for a 2-4 year old and any way it is constantly locking up and causing the computer to crash! If you can get the original version, do it. The company should recall this product.


3 out of 5 stars Nice activities but confusing and a bit hard....   June 6, 2001

As a teacher I know there are a lot of programs for kids that aren't very helpful. I think this series has good ideas and my 3 year old enjoys playing but I find the replay unbearable. I think some of the activities are too hard for the average 3-4 year old. My son enjoys the graphics like the train, but he has no idea about some of the activities. I think this will be more helpful to him in a year or so. I cannot believe the age range of 2-4. If you can get this discounted,... do it. Otherwise, don't pay much more. Also the other cd, with the travel agency, seems to glitch up. It is really not necessary. Get the basic version. Deluxe it is not!

This was the best preschool software that I have found. It teaches all of the things your preschooler needs to know. Colors, Letters, Numbers, and more are what your preschooler will have in store when you buy this for them. So go ahead and grab it and help your preschooler learn away.
