4.0 out of 5 stars Simple games, and simple fun, October 24, 2004

This review is from: Pooh Toddler w/French and Spanish (Jewel Case) (CD-ROM)

My son is 2 going on 3 and he loves this game. There are 5 characters you can play with: Pooh, Piglet, Christopher Robin, Tigger and Roo.

You can learn opposites with Pooh, which is mostly a pointless game because you can't click on anything that is not an opposite, and the Narrator's voice will come on and say what the opposites are (ie. the candle is lit, the candle is unlit). Not much fun for me or my son, but might be good for younger children.

With Tigger, you can play "who likes to?" which I think is a very good one, because it teaches your child to pay attention. At the start you will see each character begin to do something, and then the Narrator will ask who likes to...? Your child must then put what he just saw to use and figure out who likes doing what the Narrator asked. (ie. who here likes taking naps? Pooh will have had a sleeping cap on in the first part of the game.) It helps though if a parent is available to help explain the beginning actions of the characters as they are sometimes difficult to decipher. (look son, Pooh is dancing. Now piglet is drawing, etc. so that when the narrator says "who likes to" the child will know which action goes with the phrase.)

With piglet, your child can pop balloons. Great for kids at around 1 or so who don't know colors, shapes, numbers and letters yet. You will start with three of the characters floating in the sky and you have to pop thier baloons to help them get down. the balloons will start with solid colors and you can pop them in whatever order you wish and the Narrator will say what color it was. The next round will be shapes, with the narrator announcing which shape was popped, then numbers and letters. My son likes to tell me which shapes or letters or numbers are up there, but this did not really teach him anything.

Christopher Robin's game is music. and while your child can point the mouse at a few objects on the screen, mostly the characters will sing songs if the mouse remains pointed at them. Fun for a few minutes, but not something that will hold my son's attention for long.

My favorite part of the game is Roo's game. They go to learn with Owl. Owl has a special machine that will translate any word he says into one end and come out the other end in spanish. My son will repeat all the spanish words, and seems very interested in finding out what the words for things are. Great idea if you want your child to begin expanding his language possibilities.

There are also coloring pages you can print out. While much of this game is a little too easy for my son, there are certain aspects that make the game worthwhile and I'm glad I spent the money on it. There is no clicking involved, selections are made by pointing at the thing you want for 2 seconds or so. I've already recommended this game to a friend with a son about the same age as my son, and I'd recommend it again.

Mrs Hale (NC USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Pooh Toddler w/French and Spanish (Jewel Case) (CD-ROM)

This is the perfect software to get your little one acquainted with a pc. Our son is 26 months. He only has to hold the mouse over an area to activate a game. No clicking. It has improved his hand/eye coordination and he loves playing the games independently. I was surprised how quickly he mastered all the games, but he continues to play with it and seems to enjoy it after owning it for 5 months.

This review is from: Pooh Toddler w/French and Spanish (Jewel Case) (CD-ROM)

I was a little disappointed by this one because I bought it mainly because it said "French", and I was disappointed because I thought the whole thing would be in the 3 languages referred to, when actually it is only 1 part where you can learn the translation of some words from English to French (or Spanish)
I would think it is ok if English is your primary language, but bein French, and living in the United States, we wanted something completly in French to help our son immerse in French as much as he is immersed in the English language
Overall I think it's a great little educational DVD, just wasnot what I was looking for but it mght be great for you ;-)
