Product Description

From Children's Software Revue® -- "Subscribe Now!"

This just-for-fun game is great for young, wanna-be construction workers. Kids will love using the wrecking ball to smash rocks and old buildings and using dynamite to find hidden objects in boulders. Children particularly like the cards they collect as they help the construction crew with the many tasks necessary at the work site. Nice touches make the program highly engaging- for instance, kids can take lunch breaks with the crew and make sandwiches out of bricks, chocolate chip cookies and other humorous items. The program offers child-friendly, entertainment, and children will want to play the program over and over again.

My 6yr old loves this program. He loves to print his dream house that he builds and decorates by himself. His favorite part is building silly sandwiches. I can hear him giggling and laughing clear across the house. This software was very easy to use and has provided many hours of entertainment for both of us. The animation is superb and very kid-friendly. We were especially fond of the sound effects and the funny things that happened when you used the wrecking ball, or filled the tire with too much air. I highly reccommend this program, it is just pure fun.

I am a teacher of pre-school children with physical disabilities. The children in my classroom LOVE this game. They were so motiviated to play it that they learned to clip, drag and drive the trucks themselves. These are children who otherwise have motor and perceptual difficulties. They sing the songs together and have a great time. I highly recommend it to parents, and teachers alike. My only problem is getting them to play something else!

Great software for little boys (or girls I suppose) who really get into big trucks. Not much educational value, but lots of good 3-D fun!
