Summary: Keeps Kids Entertained!
Review: My daughters were 4 & 3 when we first got this game, and they still love it at ages 6 & 5. They could sit and play this for hours! It took Mom's help to start - but then they were off & "racing"!! (Press the F1 key for game hints & instructions.)

The game changes every time you play and builds memory and teaches thinking skills - but kids don't realize that they are actually learning something! It is a fun game and definately worth the money!

I enjoy ALL of the Humongous/Infogrames games--OH, so do my girls!! Ha Ha! Freddi Fish, Putt Putt, and Pajama Sam have become my girl's favorites! They beg to play almost every night!! Definately a good buy! Even up to age 8 or 9 should enjoy! (I'm 33 and I do!!) :-)

Summary: Best kid games...
Review: My kid has all the Freddi Fish , Spy Fox , Pajama Sam &
Putt-Putt titles.
My kid loved the games since he was 4 years old.
Humongous Entertainment did an excellent job.
These games will challenge the intelligence of kids.

Summary: great fun!
Review: My son is 4 and loves this game. It's easy enough for him to navigate around, yet challenging enough to keep him entertained.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Even fun for a toddler
Review: My son is only 29 months and too young to really understand the game, but he still loves it. There's enough stuff to just click on and look at. He loves driving around, picking up milk-shakes and soda bottles. He loves the library with the book of rare animals and loves putting different numbers on the flag.

We figure he'll just have fun now and in a year or two, he'll actually play the game.

I will say when he was busy doing something else, we kind of snuck in and removed a few obstacles for him. Okay, I'll be honest. We didn't actually do it for him. My husband and I can't keep our hands off the game. And then my mother came over and she couldn't stop playing either.+

So, I'll say it's a great game whether you're almost 2 1/2 or 55-years-old.

Summary: Best software for Preschoolers
Review: My son loves all the Putt-Putt and Freddi Fish and I'm not ashamed to say I kinda like 'em too! I am amazed at how well he learned to navigate and remember where items were. My mom is a retired elementary-school teacher and she is amazed at all the skills that this reinforces - math, reading, language, manners, problem-solving, listening, map reading, memory, music, etc.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Young children use problem-solving skills in fun format
Review: Putt-Putt is invited to participate in a race. He needs to collect four pieces of equipment to be in the race. By keeping his eyes open, earning some extra money, and helping others in cartown, he is able to gather those materials. My 3.5 yr-old son loves this game. The first few times he played the game, my husband and I played it with him, helping him think through some of the challenges and encouraging him to notice details that could help him towards his goals (e.g., collecting pop bottles to recycle towards money for his racing tires). This was especially important since Max can't read yet, so he wouldn't notice clues such as the "free" sign on the batteries in the toy store, or the "help wanted" sign at the grocery. After three or four games played with us, he was able to start playing the game independently. The challenges vary a little from game to game. Sometimes he earns a helmet by helping a cat out of a tree, other times by hammering nails. There is usually an animal to go research in the library (we help with the reading). The game can be saved, which is great because when Max plays by himself he meanders a bit more through cartown and it helps to break the game up over two or three evenings. Putt-putt models polite language and a positive demeanor. There are no bad guys.

Summary: Putt Putt Enters the Race
Review: This is a great product that my 4 year old son loves. He really likes cars, especially racing cars. This product has a number of fun and educational activities to do before Putt Putt can enter the race. My son loves the race at the end, but he never rushes through the activities, because he has such a good time doing them as well. He particularly likes having to go to the garden maze and find different fruits and veggies. I'd highly recommend this product.
