3.0 out of 5 stars great games, August 3, 2003
This review is from: Magic School Bus Bonus Pack Volume 3: Whales & Dolphins / Lands on Mars / Volcano Adventure (CD-ROM)
i ordered all the bonus packs (6 total software titles). and my 5 year old son loves them. they entertain him for hours. so much learning and fun on so many subjects! i highly recommend them.
that said, lets get on the the technical part. i had a lot of trouble getting them to install. some of them froze up. some of them wont autorun. and the Animals one we have never been able to play at all. it is like it "half installed". says it is there in programs. but wont open no matter what. so try to uninstall or reinstall and that wont work either. i have sent it back to the manufacturer and havent heard from them yet. my computer is almost 2 years old with windows ME and lots of ram, memory, big hard drive. and even some graphic upgrades done recently. even tried it on someone else's comp with same results.
but i still say the problems i am having are worth the fun my son is having with 5 games. and he doesnt even know there is a 6th game he hasnt been able to try yet.

5.0 out of 5 stars Another gem from Microsoft, October 10, 2003
This review is from: Magic School Bus Bonus Pack Volume 3: Whales & Dolphins / Lands on Mars / Volcano Adventure (CD-ROM)
I'd like to preface this by stating that my 6-year-old plays this package daily ? after his homework. He installed it by himself, so my opinion is that those who say it?s difficult to install need to look at their system resources. He loves the graphics, sound and the activities. I once read a review that this package is not user-friendly and I say, baloney. I say this because he doesn?t ask for assistance when using this software. All he complains about is not having all the MSB titles. There is no main menu to show you how to navigate through the CD and many of the screens do not feature an "Exit" icon to allow you to exit the program or return to the main menu, but who cares? I want my six year old to figure out these functions for himself anyway.

He is not very PC-savvy but he knows the basics of PC?s. And, he does use other software easily. I wonder if some of these negative reviews are making mountains out of molehills. I?m know I'm not overlooking something obvious here - so what's the problem?

5.0 out of 5 stars $16.99, That's All?, July 1, 2004
This review is from: Magic School Bus Bonus Pack Volume 3: Whales & Dolphins / Lands on Mars / Volcano Adventure (CD-ROM)
Three selections for $16.99!! Not a better bargain out there! Parents this is a steal... Your kids will have you wanting to learn while they explore these three selections. Promise you!

Whales, dolphins, volcanoes and Mars? Turn of the Cartoon Network and turn on your kids to something worthwhile!! You won't be sorry!
