Amazon.com Review:
Kids will jump at the chance to join Frankie the dog for a treasure hunt (even if the final object is to learn basic math and spelling skills). But it's clear that JumpStart 1st Grade isn't the "play-for-play's-sake" type of game by the academic style of the questions kids are asked to answer. In addition, parents can view reports to track their child's progress.

We advise that adults initially play this game with kids, since it's not always clear where to click next to keep the story moving. It can take a little while for kids to get oriented with what they are supposed to do in the game's activities. Also, the content in the games can lead to questions: synonym matching and fractions, for example, might be puzzling even with the cartoon teacher's explanations. For more difficult quizzes, we recommend using the option of turning on a tutor.

The best part of the JumpStart series is the wide range of topics that children are exposed to: science, art, mathematics, and grammar basics. JumpStart: 1st Grade adheres to this pattern. The software also provides great positive reinforcement as kids get the right answers, both visually (in the form of treasure pieces) and audibly (with the feedback of Frankie). JumpStart exists to reinforce lessons taught in school and is a colorful way for kids to practice their newly learned skills.

Amazon.com Product Description:
Join Frankie and friends in an interactive 1st-grade classroom that's loaded with games and activities. Learn over 90 different educational skills in 18 activity modules that teach reading, science, math, and more. The software is designed for multiple age groups or multiple children within a family. The content-rich programs for age-appropriate levels allow children to progress at their own pace.

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Good learning tool
Something fun for the summer so that my child doesnt forget what he learned the year before.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - JumpStart 1st Grade
I am a huge fan of these video games. They are wonderful tutorials for young children and they make it fun to learn. They are plug and play which means that you put the disc in the computer and you are ready to go. If your child needs tutoring, these games may be the answer for you. My grown children used them and now I have purchased them again for my granddaughter. I don't think you'll be disappointed.
