Zoombini's are little fuzzy blue characters. They are trapped on an island far from home. Players have to guide groups of the Zoombini's through a treacherous forest to get them safely home. Most math oriented software programs would require players to just solve equations, thus just providing drill practice. Zoombini's requires more.
Kids have to practice logic skills of deduction and reasoning to pass through the forest.
Lots of fun for the nine and oldre crowd. Putt Putt saves the Zoo is a treasure hunt game for kids ages 3 to 6. The object is to locate the missing baby animals in time for the Zoo to open. After completeing this game once, my daughter fell in love with it. Never underestimate the value of success to a four year old.
