Customer Reviews of Reader Rabbit Kindergarten Bounce Down in Balloon Town
Not recommended - would't run; no technical support I tried to install this game on my wife's PIII running Windows 2000. It installed, but refused to run - it threw an "Appication Error" box on the screen and stopped after I clicked the "Play" button. I tried the technical support site... and there are clearly lots of problems with it as there are lots of solutions - none to my problem though and the solutions that seemed close didn't seem to apply as files indicated in the instructions were not on the CD, etc.
I was unable to download the patches as thier web site threw an error so am now the proud owner of a useless game. Not recommended!
Not up to the usual standards
I wish I could give this a better rating, as I'm generally a big fan of the Reader Rabbit series. I've used these programs for each of my four kids, and we've been through every grade level (including the previous version of RR Kindergarten).
Plus, I generally liked the construction of the game. It had a good story line, great activities and a very age-appropriate feel.
The main problem was that it's WAY too short - there's just not enough material for it to be really useful. Each activity is completed in just a few trials.
It's not even long enough for the auto-levelling feature to work well. It starts each activity on the easiest level, and a student that needs a more advaced level can zoom through and be finished before there's even a chance for it to ratchet up the level of difficulty.
I'll also give it a slight ding for not giving enough guidance toward the right answers. There's not much negative feedback for wrong answers, and it's possible to pass the activities by pure guessing. Sometimes it doesn't give any indication at all when an answer is missed.
All in all, this is an unusually poor showing for a program in the RR line-up.

This is of course another Fantastic learning tool from Reader Rabbit. I am homeschooling this year and my son just loves to play this and he hasn't even realized yet that he is learning, he thinks he is playing a video game!!!! Thank You.
