Great for Preschool Special Ed. classrooms

My kids just love this computer game! It is very easy to use; the kids just move the mouse around. They don't have to click the mouse. It is cute enough for adults to enjoy playing with the children. I have a very intelligent autistic boy who forgets to scream and have tantrums while he is playing this game. It even helps with socialization. I often see more than one child watching the screen and pointing to items while another child uses the mouse.

Good Game, when it works

2005-10-19
I have installed it on Windows XP, and I've had problems with the video going crazy once in a while, like the colors all flip to their opposites. When it does work, my nephew, who is almost 3, loves to sit on my lap and we play. This coming from a little boy who'd rather run than walk any day. He is having fun and learning at the same time.

Enjoyable for 16-month old

Our 16-month old enjoys watching the animation, listening to the songs, and is working on learning how to control it. Still needs some help, but he asks for playtime using the computer now. Plenty of activities.

fabulous game for kids

I bought this game many years ago and paid $25.00 or so for it. Both my children have loved it and my oldest has had fun on it up to age 6. I would recommend this to everyone. When it says baby it means a very young child can get the hang of it. This has worked great for me on Windows ME and XP, no problems.

Reader Rabbit Playtime for Baby and Toddler

I had no problems loading this on my Windows XP computer. It runs great. It also rav great on my windows 98 pc. I got this for my grandson when he was barely a year old. He's 3 now and STILL loves to play "the bunny game" as he calls it. He has gone from pounding the keyboard to using the mouse to navigate in and out of the various games. I only wish there were additional downloadable coloring pages as he knows them all now.

Excellent for toddlers

I bought this software for my 18 month old daughter... It took her a little while to figure out the mouse, but she was never bored while she learned. She is now just over 2 and has mastered all the games on both the Baby and Toddler segments.. She still loves Mattie and Reader Rabbit. I also bought 2 of the baby and toddler Sesame Street tiles... They are not as easy to learn since they require the child to use either the mouse OR the keybord, no game uses both, and these games bore her. I highly recommend this Reader Rabbit title for your child age 1 - 3. I'm off to order the preschool title! I'll let you know what we think!

Great game for toddlers!

My 2 year old loves this game! The best thing about the game is that the child can play by either touching keys on the keyboard, moving the mouse over items in the game, or using the mouse to click. Great to grow with a child as his/her computer skills grow. Fun and exciting variety of games that include lots of skill areas. Excellent game for toddlers!

My daughter likes this game

2006-12-14
My daughter really likes this game as it has lots of sounds and colors. It was a little bit simple for her though as she finished all the activities in one day. She still likes to play it though. I did not have any problems installing it on our computer. So I gave it 4 stars. A game that was a little more challenging yet ok for a preschooler was a game called School Zome Flash Action Colors, shapes and more. That game made my daughter "think" a little bit more than reader rabbit did. It's still an ok game.

very educational + fits with age group well

2006-11-04
This software works very well, has quite a bit of things to do that children enjoy and helps them learn. My biggest complaint with the software is the entrance and exit, the entrance being very long and there is only one way to skip it to get to the games, clicking on flower for exit at beginning to get past it, although the software don't tell you that, and as far as the exit goes, it questions you a second time and is still slow to exit. perfect for the childs age group, I would highly recommend this software to anyone wanting this for their child.

This program is one of the best I have seen. I did like Jumpstart baby, but this is a great addition to my collection. Seems to function best in the Toddler mode for my 19month old! I give it 5 stars.
