I may even like this better then Reader Rabbit or Jumpstart series. A seperate cd for vowels is included which I found fantastic. My daughter loves getting the silver and gold stars. My daughter is 5 and has no problems navigating this game.
Rating: - Great for kids!
Great program. My son in kindergarten is learning vowels & consonants & this program helps him with sounding out letters out & has enjoyable games to test them on it. Has a good "star" system that rewards them a gold star if they get all answers correct. Easy installation on a XP system. Highly recommend for your child!

I really like this software. My son is using it and I can see the improvement already. He is in kindergarten and he can read through sight words but not phonetically. This program really helps with phonetic sounds. I would recommend it especially for the price you pay.
Rating: - Quite good.
This CDrom is quite good and I would have given it 5 stars if my toddler had been thrilled with it... which he wasn't. He was mildly interested. Perhaps at almost 3 years of age he is too young. On the other hand, as a teacher I was very impressed with this CDrom. It is very thorough and I have no doubt that if a child were to proceed through the games, winning stars for each level, their skills would be dramatically improved. It seemed entertaining to me, but I'm 43 - not the suggested 4 - 8 years old.
Rating: - Great product loads of fun!
I bought this for my two boys ages 4 and 6. They can't sit still but do for this phonics software. They love the learning games and don't realize they are really learning. I purchased this to help them with their speech, one is severly delayed and the other not so much. The words and pronounciation are very very clear and easily understood. Simple directions and easy to follow. Starts off easy but gets harder for my older child. Best of all they are learning to read and practicing speech. Also has sight words game great for school age children and early readers.
