Summary: Blue took my nephews to school
Review: I gave this in December to my 4 year old nephews, and they loved it. On a G4/500 running OS 10.3.5, it didn't take long to load, and ran well (you do need to keep the CD in, although a disk image might work). My nephews have always liked to draw, and they spent most of their time in the art module (20 colors, 3 brushes, an airbrush, "stickers", eraser, and coloring book). The music module didn't seem very good; it appears to be about matching rhythms. The "water table" boat puzzles were also popular. The nature module got some attention, but even at 4 years old, they knew a lot of it. They played as long as they were allowed, and their parents report that several weeks later, they were still eagerly playing.

Summary: PC version converted to Mac, VERY BUGGY
Review: I purchased this title at Macworld a few days ago. It's hard to believe they did ANY testing before the release of this crappy PC port

First off, it took ALL NIGHT for the 277Mb of data to copy off the disk onto my hard drive! My kid was in tears after waiting an hour for the data to copy, which should have taken a minute or two.

The next morning I tried to start up the application, and in a very PC looking window it requested that I insert the CD and failed to recognize when I did so.

FYI, I'm on a machine with system 10.3.7 with plenty of RAM.

This is a MUST RETURN title. Skip it.
