My 9 year old daughter loves this game. I put her weekly spelling words in & she learns them while she plays the game. Usually in less than 3 days, she has learned all 20 !! It is well worth the money !! Especially for kids who have a hard time with or just don't like spelling.

This is the only Didj spelling game reccomended for 1st grade, so I bought it for my daughter. I wasn't sure if she would like it since she had never shown any interest in racing games before. However, I was more interested in giving her a game that was on her level. I was surprised that she has played her Didj more since she has gotten this game then she did since she got her Didj at Xmas. She still has some difficulty in game play (she isn't a big gammer in a family that is) but she is getting the hang of it. I love the fact that it gives her a hands on way to practice her spelling words. The graphics are decent considering that isn't why we bought the system. I am very happy with this game.

My son is in kindergarten but thoroughly enjoying this game. Of course, he enjoys the driving aspect. But, my favorite part is when I hear him sounding out words as he selects the correct letters to spell the words presented on the screen. When I check his DIDJ later, I learn that he is spelling at the first grade level or higher. It is exciting!
