4 out of 5 stars A good first game for a child   March 19, 2007
  1 out of 1 found this review helpful

My daughter is 2 1/2 and we're introducing her to the wonderful world of computers. She loves Dora (What little girl doesn't?), so this seemed like a great way to get her started. Although this game states that it is for children 3 and over, I think that this is a good game for younger children as long as you can help them out. This is basically a collection of very basic games which cover counting, shapes, colours, etc. If your child already has the skills to use a mouse and is well versed in shapes and such, then I agree with some other reviewers that this may be too simplistic, but for a younger child - especially one who loves Dora - this adds just a little bit more interactivity to the "Dora experience" and can help get him/her more comfortable with using a mouse.


5 out of 5 stars Our four year old loves it   March 15, 2007
Our four year old still plays this game a lot, even though we've had it for several weeks. Some of it seems repetetive to me, but then, kids are quite willing to go over things again and again. this is a good mix of letting her have fun but also learning since its content is quite educational. At age four, she is already becoming computer savvy, in part due to this game.

We have a 4 year old that absoultely loves this games it keeps her busy for hours and she has learned alot playing it. She has already learned to recognize different shapes and is learning her numbers. I would recommend this game for any toddler.

She wants to play it almost everyday. :-)

I find it to be suited for her age, its not too simple or boring at all.



3 out of 5 stars A good FIRST computer game   August 21, 2006

My daughter is 3 1/2 and loves Dora. But this game is WAY too simple for her. There just aren't enough things to do, and even the higher levels don't really challenge compared to her two other games: Care Bears and Blue's Clues. If you have a two-year-old or a child who's never played on a computer, this is great at teaching basic color, shape & number recognition and how to use a mouse & click. A better choice for a 3 - 4 year old is Blue's ABC Time Activities.
