Microsoft Scholastic's The Magic School Bus Explores the Solar System (Jewel Case) Reviews
The best CD about dinosaurs. They go on it all the time. My kids love this CD.
He knows alot about dinosaurs and this doesn't expand on anything. I think maybe if it were a little more realistic.and the game gets stuck and acts slowly. My 4 year old son has been playing computer games for about 6 months and does really well at navigating the mouse and listening for instructions. I sit with him until I know he knows how to play. You have to search to find where you want to go and the information I think it gives on the dinosaurs is either below or above his level. I can't leave him with this one.
You should also consider the adventures of Captain Captain Jon's Island Adventure and Captain Jon Explores the Ocean. This piece is great for kids.
:). If your child shows any interest in marine biology, I highly recommend that you purchase this game. I really like how you can visit many different ocean zones so you can see that not all parts of the ocean are alike. It is unique that you can "perform" your own science experiments on the same program that you can play fun games on. The Magic School Bus games are all quite good. I like the game with the crab. This is such a cool game.
Maybe I just haven't "found" the good stuff yet, but I was hoping for better. It's ok, but I'm disappointed that the software doesn't load correctly (on 3 different computers and 2 operating systems (win98, XP). Finding out where to go and what to click on is trial and error for the most part. I am a MSB fan and am trying to get my young children interested too. The Ocean was the first MSB software we got, and I'm afraid it will be the last. It will start, but it is very difficult to navigate the first few times until you "learn" where things are. None worked right).
