JumpStart Learning Games Bundle: Music, Spelling, Numbers
© 2000 Knowledge Adventure, Inc.
You get three solid programs in this likable bundle. The best is JumpStart Spelling, which offers lots of fun spelling practice. For example, in order to spell the words in one activity, children must capture falling letters as they rain down the screen. The Music CD provides a nice introduction to beat, melody, notation and instrument sounds. And finally, the Numbers program presents three multilevel arcade-style games that teach counting, addition and subtraction. The content is solid in all three programs, but kids are required to wait through lengthy animation sequences. All in all, though, this set is a good deal.
