Preschool Computer Lab Teacher - OK for 3-5's 
2005-11-11
I have taught preschool computer lab for two years and have used this software this year as well as Dora's Lost City Adventure. My younger 3 year old students find the game a bit hard and need some assistance, but once they have the idea, they enjoy repeating the tasks over and over (which this game is definitely repetitive). My older 3 year old and 4-5 year old students will play this game for about 10 minutes and then want to move on to another game.
The one problem that I seem to have with this software is that students will easily find their way into the sticker album but then get stuck there. It takes some real effort to exit out of the sticker album because the exit button hides itself after a moment.
As a personally note, I have to listen to this software's soundtrack for 2.5 hours per day while working in the lab, and I truthfully get sick of hearing it. Other games have lots of varying music, but this one seems to play the seem music and catch phrases over and over and over and over and OVER! Luckily, since children seem to bore of this game in under 30 minutes, most home PC users won't have to put up with this problem for long.
Overall, your young Dora fan will probably enjoy this software for a short time each time you load it.
NOTE: I have successfully used this software on Windows 2000 Professional operating platform.
