Math skills come in handy when playing this mystical, mathematical Aladdin adventure. By solving math problems that test skills ranging from addition and subtraction to patterns, estimation, and logic, children can save the day and rescue Aladdin and his friends from the forces of evil. A wicked genie named Bizarrah has escaped from her lamp and has captured Jasmine, Abu, and Aladdin in Agrabah. Players must do the math to put an end to Bizarrah, once and for all.
Movie-quality animation and an astounding number of multilevel, age-appropriate math games make this software a classic. Whether kids are playing the Dungeon Games, Agrabah Games, Magical Carnival Games, or Pyramid Games, they'll love the challenging gameplay and adventure this unique software offers.
Games range from Yazoul's Number Wall, which has kids making mental computations by using addition and subtraction skills, to a fast-paced virtual marble game, Square Up, where geometry and logical reasoning rule as kids race the carnival barker by being the first to create squares in a challenging grid screen. No flying carpet required, just bring along your math skills for hours of challenging math fun. (Ages 6 to 9) --Tina Velgos

Great thinking skills!,
By Elanna Kaplan (New Port Richey, Florida) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Disney's Math Quest with Aladdin Ages 6-9 (CD-ROM)
This CD helps kids build a variety of math skills, including addition and logical thinking. The different levels are good, but what I really love is how you can move around and play your favorite games again and again. The only negative is there is no subtraction practice. But kids learn without even realizing it. This is great. I wish there were more like it!

One of our favorites,
By HoneyB "HoneyB" (Indiana) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Disney's Math Quest with Aladdin Ages 6-9 (CD-ROM)
I bought this for my daughter when she was about 7. She struggled at first, but it was so motivating she kept trying until she learned the skills to get all the way through the game. In the meantime, her 5 year old brother started watching. He was soon able to win all the games (with a little coaching from big sis). He is in 1st grade and gets 100% on all his math tests. I think that playing Aladdin made math more intuitive for him. He still plays the game at age 7 and loves it.

Excellent math practice,

This review is from: Disney's Math Quest with Aladdin Ages 6-9 (CD-ROM)
My son received this when he was 6 years old. He played with it constantly. He helped his 5 year old sister play with him. Today he is 8 and still loves playing at a higher skill level. The attraction for my kids is that their goal is to get the pieces of the magic lamp from which Bizarra escaped. Once they get the pieces, they can capture her. To accomplish this, they have to play various math games to free their friends and get the pieces. They get basic math skill practice and have fun doing it. Even after they've accomplished their goal, they can come back and play any game they want or start a new game. They get practice in basic addition, geometric shapes, sequences, matching patterns, etc.
