My daughter, who is 4 1/2, loves the I Spy Puppet Playhouse software that she plays with at our local Science Museum, so I wanted to get this for her to play with at home. We have a Mac and it says on the Amazon site that it is supported by both PCs and Macs. However, it doesn't work on our computer. The copyright on the software is 1999 or 2001 (I don't have the software in front of me) so it was written some time ago. It says on the packaging that it works for earlier versions Mac operating systems, and Mac OS 10 Classic version, whatever that is. So unfortunately we were not able to make it work. I'm still giving it a high rating, though, because of our experience with it at the Science Museum.

I bought this for my 5-year-old grandaughter to use on our home computer. She had already become familiar with "I Spy" materials.
This was not very challenging for her; though it was somewhat amusing.
I had to "trick" Microsoft Vista into loading the program in a way that worked.
