Customer Reviews

OS 9 ONLY: DANGER. This software says it will work with Mac, but will require you to do so in classic mode. That means my fourth grader will need my help to get her there every time she uses the program. Not worth it.… More reviews

It's great but not OS X: Beware mac users - if you don't have Classic don't get it.
Otherwise - it is a great way to get kids going - and for parents the self assesment is a good way to level set More reviews

My boy actually doesn't really like it.: I've usually been quite pleased with Jumpstart products, but my boy who is usually quite easy to get to go play educational games doesn't like this one. He says it keeps sending him back to the same thing over and over even if he gets a perfect score. I think he would have just liked a little more variety.… More reviews

Great fun! She forgot she was learning!: I recently bought Jump Start 4th Grade for my daughter. She loved it! It quickly became her favorite computer program. She introduced two friends to the program and they went out and purchased it as well! She prefers this computer game over television, so it was well worth the money. You won't be disappointed!… More reviews
