The favorite game
 
Review Date: January 10, 2008
Reviewer: Rachel, Sterling, VA United States
This is my daughter's favorite game. It has 3 games, but they are games that evolve and advance to harder levels.

For example, the cathing items in the basket game -- whatever it is called, starts with item recognition and uses the arrow keys to get say 'apples' instead of butter or cherries. Eventually it goes to can you get the apples with the '6' so you need to recognize your numbers.

There is a lot of recognizing numbers going on in this game. The same applies for the pie kicking game. This game actually is very matched to skills that are age appropriate for a 3 or 4 year old. For example, in my daughter's preschool, they are working on number recognition of 1-5. This is doing 1-9.

I highly recomend the clickstart to anyone, and while a 5 or 6 year old would master this game instantly, it is VERY good for the preschool age child of 3 & 4. It is fun too, my daughter would rather play this than watch TV.
Great game

I got this for my four year old daughter and she loves it. It has bonus points from her because it's the Backyardigans. It's really easy to use. This makes it fun to learn.
Can't find Backyardigans anywhere....

Great Entertainment...Poor Education
 
Review Date: December 23, 2007
Reviewer: J. Hill, CNY
First off...my 3yo absolutely *loves* the clickstart computer and games. She is self taught and is a whiz at it.

We have all the games and purchased this one last. Out of all of them...this one is the most entertaining and the least educational.

When you open the game you have the choice to play 3 games and one option to listen to music you have "earned" in a game. One of the games has the player collecting fruit in a basket to make a pie. The player has to use the right and left arrow keys to move the character back and forth to catch falling fruit. Another game has a character flying through the air and the player has to use the mouse to run into flying pies. The final game has the player using the mouse to play a matching game. An instrument is shown on the screen and the player has to click on its match at the top of the screen. The instruments names are never mentioned. At the end of this game the characters dance to a tune. When you go back to the main menu, you can go into a pagoda house and play the tune you "earned" over again.

As you can see...based on the other ClickStart games that use numbers and letters...this doesn't use any (at least in level 1). And it is supposed to teach music but it does not. But it has the most entertaining games of all the cartridges.

Do I like it...yes. But it is a huge disappointment when it comes to education.
