Product Description

Winnie the Pooh is his usual befuddled self and just can't remember what it is that he's forgotten. After a period of some very tough thinking, he recalls that it's Eeyore's birthday, and he better get ready for the party. Beautiful graphics and delightful narration set the stage for this adventure in which children play six games to help Pooh prepare for Eeyore's party. The activities are nicely integrated into the storyline. Rabbit, for instance, can't come to the party unless all of his vegetable jars are labeled. Kids help him by matching number labels to the number of objects in each jar. To free Piglet up to make the birthday cake, children color pictures by matching the colors of a model. To help Tigger get the party music ready, children use their listening skills as they match the sounds of musical pipes. Children practice their alphabet skills with Kanga and Roo and are also exposed to exercises in counting, sequencing and categorization. After they complete each activity, a gift is presented at Eeyore's birthday table. The program culminates in his party, of course! In addition to the engaging activities, children will appreciate that they can print out workbook pages, stickers, bookmarks, concentration cards and ID cards, all featuring Winnie the Pooh artwork. The breadth and depth of the CD is a real strength, with three adjustable levels of difficulty for each game- making it perfect for toddlers and preschoolers alike.

4.0 out of 5 stars Pooh could be 4 u!, March 17, 2000

By 

Suzanne Brice (Baltimore, Maryland) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Winnie the Pooh Preschool (CD-ROM)

My 2 and a half year old has quickly learned how to navigate this program. The beginning has a mail box that you have to type the players name into and I need to help her with that. There are 3 levels on each game and a variety of activities. Counting, coloring a page to match a smaller picture and even color mixing to get desired color. The goal is to complete all the areas to get ready for a birthday party for Eeyore. My daughter enjoys this game and although it is a bit slow sometimes ( pooh is a slow talker) She plays with it often. It requires more thinking than many of the other games for this age group that I have bought and challenges her. I would recommend it highly.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Really Great Game, September 28, 2000

This review is from: Winnie the Pooh Preschool (CD-ROM)

My two year old really enjoys this game. The animation is fantastic and there are a whole lot of different educational games to play. She really enjoys doing all the different activities with her favorite Pooh Characters. I love the fact that it has different levels of difficulty, so when she is bored with one level [or outgrows it], she can move on to another level and it is a whole new exciting game. I expect to get a LOT of play out of this software. [This Preschool game is a vast improvement over Winnie the Pooh Toddler - although I still hate the long credits you have to sit through at the end to take the CD out].

5.0 out of 5 stars Pooh and the gang make learning a joy!, September 8, 2000

This review is from: Winnie the Pooh Preschool (CD-ROM)

This is a wonderful game that captivates young audiences. I've used it with kids from 2-5 years of age and they all have fun with their favorite characters (while they sneak in a little education on them.) There is a game to play with each of your 100 Acre pals which help enhance different skills-listening, matching, counting, alphabet and pre-reading, etc. With three levels of play for each activity and a goal to reach at the end (Eeyore's birthday party), the kids love this one for a long, long time. I think you'll definitely get your money's worth out of this one.
