3.0 out of 5 stars Electronic Workbook, August 31, 2005

Fun:3.0 out of 5 stars 

I purchased this CD-rom at a large discount retailer for about $6.50. That's about how much it's worth. If I had paid more than that, I think I would feel ripped off.

The best way to describe "Vocabulary puzzles, Grade 1" is as an electronic workbook. It is not really what I would classify as a computer "game". The exercises do offer some good reinforcement of basic skills, but I have to sit with my daughter while she uses this program in order to explain/interpret the directions and to help her find the keys on the keyboard. My six-year old is probably "gifted" (we homeschool so I really have no clue if she technically is gifted, but teachers I know say that she probably is) who has a pretty long attention span, but even she finds the exercises to be challenging, bordering on monotonous.

I wouldn't really classify this disc as "making learning fun". It only real use is to make learning electronic and offer a slight variety to filling out workbook pages.
