1st Grade is more challenging than most first grade programs, but for kids who are up to a challenge, it has a tremendous range of educational content. This package has above-average entertainment value with its colorful characters and activities. Both titles are designed well, though the activity Notebook contains some numbers and letters that are too tiny to work with. 1st Grade has adjustable difficulty levels. There doesn't seem to be an end to the number of activities in Big Thinkers 1st Grade, and the Freddi Fish adventure can be played over again because the objects change their hiding places when a new adventure is started.
Buyers get two high quality software titles and an activity notebook.
Comparatively low system requirements mean families with older computers can still enjoy this package without feeling cheated in terms of graphics and entertainment value.
