3.0 out of 5 stars It COULD be good..., December 7, 2000

But this CD-ROM kept crashing my otherwise-stable machine. Anyone with small children knows that frustration is easily felt by little ones, and I finally had to stop using the game because my 2 year-old was getting too upset when the game crashed. Also, the suggested ages - 1 1/2 to 3 - may be incorrect. Only one game is well suited to little ones (Shapes & Colors) because the child can simply hit any key. The others require more sophisticated motor skills and understanding.

2.0 out of 5 stars Preschool Computer Lab Teacher - OK for 2's, November 11, 2005

I have taught preschool computer lab for two years and begun using this software this year as a "filler" in my lab for my 2 year old students. I have 10 PC and run Reader Rabbit Toddler on 6 machines; this software is on one PC, and I wouldn't use it on any more. I have tried this software with my 1 year old students, and they find it too complex. On the other hand, my 3 year old students think it is too easy and get bored way too quickly with it.

The game simply does not kept my students' interest, and they don't seem to respond to it. If I had something better on hand, I'd use it instead.

I also have a major problem exiting this program. The only way that I have found that works is to pull up the task manager and manually end the program.

Overall, I wouldn't waste your money or time on this program - buy Reader Rabbit Toddler instead!

NOTE: I successfully used this program on a Windows 2000 Professional operating platform.

I got mind a a thrift store on base so thought someone might have done something to it but I guess it's just the disk itself. It looks fine. Perfect in fact, but mine also keeps crashing. Very sad since my little girl LOVEed the 3 minutes she had to play it (and it crashed 3 times...). I wish they could fix it. It seems like a pretty big glitch to just ignore...
