Both my son and daughter have enjoyed this game. They learned their letters with the Letters on the Loose game. This is a great next step. My daughter is a first grader and has no problem playing this game on her own.
My 6 yr.old is learning the grammar rule about the silent e when to use it and how it changes the sound of the word and the meaning. she is learning to read with the story and loves the games, they focus on helping the child use their skills with: memory, attention to detail, concentration and much more all with fun games and in a way that she does not see the work it takes to win the game. I love it and so does she. that is all I have to say.
I bought what I thought was an interactive BOOK as it was described. As I had it shipped to my brother's house in the states and then only received it a couple of months later when my mom came for a visit, it was too late to return it. I received a small cartridge looking thing but NO BOOK. As I live in Europe and have done so for the last ten years and only recently adopted a 4 year old boy, I had no idea that what I was buying would require another piece of machinary or equipment. So it is completely unusable and was a waste of my money. I feel that the information provided on the internet should clearly indicate that in order to read this virtual "book" one requires a another piece of equipment.
He's reading at a 2nd grade level. He even won the medal for best reader of his class.
He LOVES THIS GAME, addicted to it. I have a very advanced pre-k reader, and so I got this game as a challange to his 3 letter words that his class is on.
By the end of pre-k, while the other kids are still on 2 & 3 letter words, he has learned the tools to read anything, I mean even the longest of words. It taught him pretty complicated phonic rules (ones that I didn't quite know how to teach him) like the silent 'E' @ the end, or the 2 vowels together, or even the simple identifing of vowels.
THis game taught it to him in a way that he never even questioned about it. I reccommend this game even for kindergarden or even 1st grade.
I didn't play the game myself (unlike the other games - I usually do) but he LOVES it and it really worked.
this is a great learning tool it teaches words and how to use them in many different ways.And helps along with the story and plays games my girls love this.
