Summary: Jumpstart Toddlers
Review: Excellent learning tool for toddlers, especially mine living, as we are, in a non-English speaking environment. I would like to order more but living outside the US forbids me to do this. I therefore have to rely on friends - who are mostly inconvenienced by my intrusion. Is there no such thing as a center which could send on to me software products purchased through Amazon? You may publish my e-mail address. Thank you.

Summary: Great for learning ABC's!
Review: My 3 1/2 year old loves this software. It has helped him learn abc's, upper/lower case, matching, finding, letter sounds, etc. I was very happy with this. The only disappointment was that after he'd mastered the 3 different activities, there wasn't another level with new activities. Still fun, though!

Summary: Jumpstart ABC's
Review: My 4 year old son loves this game and I don't even think he realizes that he is learning as he plays. It is exactly what I was looking for. This gives him the ABC recognizition that his preschool teacher told me to work on with him. Another wonderful thing about it is that it was easy enough for him to comprehend and figure out what to do and now he plays on it all by himself.

Summary: Good cheerful fun
Review: My daughter has had a lot of fun with this game. It is filled with lively cheerful music and adorable characters that she even likes to pretend to be when not on the computer sometimes. She was about 2 1/2 when we got it and it was just about right. It is mainly filled with letter recognition games in the form of matching. It is not a great brain teaser but it does give them an objective to work their way through. They have to find out who left their juice in the caboose through process of elimination. They get a clipboard with a passenger list that they can even print out along with a magnifying glass and a thinking hat. The final reward is slow in coming and it can lose their interest along the way. But it saves the game for you and you can spend days acheiving it if you like. They also make a video tape that mimics the game and is a great motivator to complete the game and see the ending.

Summary: Jump Start ABC's
Review: My son really enjoys this software. He loves the cartoon characters and the fun songs that they sing and dance to. I like the way each word lights up while the characters are singing songs. That way you can follow along. He learned to recognize his letters by playing this CD. It's a good way for a young child to develop listening skills and to follow directions. My son really likes playing the sled race while finding words that begin with the same letter. I like the fact that there are three levels of play. (easy, medium, hard). When you master the easy level you can go on to the next level. I would recommend this CD to anyone with young children ages 3-5, because they will learn pre-reading skills in a fun and motivating way.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Very Average
Review: The music was nice, but the dialogue was too long.... My three and 1/2 year old became easily bored. He was only interested in the sled game. Its good for kids who can keep focused on something for a long time.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A delightful learning experience
Review: This software delivers great bang for the buck. My son is almost three and he loves this program, which is designed to help children learn the alphabet. He calls it Juice Caboose. It has numerous characters that are fun and the music is charming. The exercises are challenging, but not impossible.

I believe that interactive learning software is a much better way for children to spend time than watching TV or videos. This is a good program because it holds the child's attention and creates a fun learning experience. I recommend it highly.
