Another Gem, What Else Can I Say?
I have been reviewing Microsoft products for years. I cannot emphasize the quality of its products, especially this one. This package contains four disks: Preschool Workshop, Alphabet Playhouse, Reader Railway and Bonus Math CD. Four disks! Four programs! Great value...My seven year old doesn't play this anymore because it doesn't have 2nd grade written on it. That's it. The only reason....but he played the heck out of it. Parents, buy this one and pay attention to what your child says after using it for awhile. You will hear new things that he or she learned from this gem. What else can I say?

Good value but some duff parts
This package contains 4 CDs each with a single multi-activity game. My son loved almost everything about the first CD , Preschool workshop. It is the most attractive of the CDs and contains a good variety of activities from coloring to counting. The application encouraged exploration and provided suitably encouraging feeback using sound clips. It was interesting to watch him rapidly progess in the "spot the differences" activity, which seemed to get harder quite quickly -- since this is not unlike some IQ tests. However the other CDs in the set did not seem to interest him nearly as much. Of the remainder, Reader railway seemed to work better for him a little later and he enjoyed filling in pictures based on letter identification. I thought that Mathopolis game was poorly designed (I have a maths background).

The Ultimate
Both my daughters love this software package. It beats out all the others hands down. My 4 year old has quite the addiction problem with this game and fortunately, I can use it as leverage for getting her to clean her room or behave at the store. It is very fun and they learn at the same time. The Alphabet Playhouse is my favorite because it has some cool songs that we all sing. The music that goes along with the graphics has them singing vowels and sounding out the letters phonetically and they don't even realize it. I love the catchy tunes myself, I have to admit. It's very fun and top-notch and I would recommend this over any other program if you can find it anywhere. I snatched up My Personal Tutor for 1st grade and 2nd grade on an internet auction, it's worth seeking out.
