Reader Rabbit Math Adventure Ages 4-6 (Jewel Case) Reviews
Respectfully, Mary H. My 5 yr old aspires to be in preschool for life, so if he thinks he's playing AND he learns it's just way easier and faster and less frustrating for all. My kids love it They are homeschooling so its great practice and a terrific teaching tool. Its Awesome.Thanks RR. This product is great and delivery was quick as a bunny.
My daughter loves to be on the computer and enjoys all of the reader rabbit products. It is amazing to watch her figure out math while having fun.
When using the software with Windows XP, the program needs to run in Windows Compatibility mode. This title is more like a conventional computer game, in which players play various math-based games to accumulate points. Reader Rabbit Math is an adaptation of an earlier game called Math Rabbit, and as a result, has some compatibility issues.
Having purchased the Reader Rabbit Learn To Read With Phonics, I wondered if there was a similar excellent product for early math learning. Unlike the Learn To Read With Phonics series, there is no story arc for this math game, so it lacks the imaginative adventure that may help motivate some youngsters to keep going. Also unlike Learn To Read With Phonics, the software makes players choose what level of difficulty they want to set for each of the games every time you play, rather than keeping track of a player's progress and adjusting the difficulty automatically, while keeping these configuration settings away from access by the youngsters. Both Reader Rabbit and Math Rabbit make an appearance in this title, as operators of two halves of a math carnival.
Unfortunately, Reader Rabbit Math, though it has some fun games, is a relic of an earlier era of educational software, and is difficult to install on a modern system, such as Windows XP. The two halves of the game are patched together somewhat awkwardly, and when a player chooses to play the Math Rabbit half, the screen area of the game actually shrinks by about 25%, perhaps reflecting older code that was written for display adapters with much lower resoltion than is available today.
It is phonics-based. The game is to collect letters to fill in a message. This review is specifically for Reader Rabbit Reading Preschool - 1st Grade. I had ordered Math Adventures, but the Reading one came instead; however, I kept it because my five-year-old daughter is enjoying it. It probably can't replace reading instruction, but it is a good reinforcement. Before each letter can be put into the message, the player must go through several games, which will introduce the child to letter sounds and sight words.
I highly recommand the "Reader Rabbit" Line of products to everyone who has pre-k thru school age children. It has been a great help in making learning math fun for both my 4 and 5 yr olds. They can't wait to play the games and their knowledge has improved on numbers, shapes, and colors in patterns and problem solving.
