If you want to sneak in a little learning between homework assignments for 1st graders, I think this is a great way to do it. It may not be advanced enough for 2nd graders however.

This review is from: Disney's 1st & 2nd Grade Bundle (Pixar 1st Grade, Secret Keys, and Aladdin Reading Quest) (CD-ROM)

Very interesting & slightly challenging games to aid learning; nice graphics & storyline. Kids love it--have 2 preschool, 1 K, 2 2nd and 1 3rd grade--all wait (and watch others progression) impatiently to play it. Had initial problems with installing & some sound or stopping (on Vista) but got immediate response that fixed all from Disney on line.

We got this as a gift last May for our son't 5th birthday. He enjoys it very much, but the reading (Aladdin) disk seems to need more RAM than the other disks. You must have QuickTime in order to use this product.
