Verdict

Entertaining and educational - should hold a child's attention easily enough.

Incorporating fun exercises and simple games that educate and entertain, the 15 activities in this download cover important fundamentals such as mathematics, time, letters and colours & shapes.

All activities are colourful and short enough to hold the child's attention, yet not too basic that they lose their educational value.

All games are grouped together in themes, with roughly six games per theme, ensuring longevity of the application. Each group generally contains applications that present information to the child, followed by exercises and games that require the recall and input of this information.

A nifty program is included that lets you record your voice (requires a microphone and sound card) for use in those activities that allow vocal feedback - a great way to personalise things.

Purchase price: $14.95

Note: You will need Visual Basic 4.0 runtime files to use this program. These can be downloaded by clicking here.
