Create personalized learning experiences with kindergarten activities that are based on learning style preferences. In a Soapbox Derby, students master pre-reading and early math skills in six learning games that automatically adjust to students' demonstrated learning style. Kids learn kindergarten skills and get a head start on 1st grade.
Recognizing that there are many ways to learn and that children can use different intelligences to comprehend a skill or concept, the JumpStart Advanced series provides a personalized learning environment that suits how each child learns best. In addition, the JumpStart Advanced series offers greater play value with an enhanced motivational game-reward structure that empowers kids to create and express their creativity, along with fun activities that encourage active learning to reinforce skills beyond the computer, and advanced curricula to better prepare kids for the next grade. A valuable new feature in this series is more sensitive skill leveling that automatically adjusts gameplay and educational content to each child's increasing abilities.
In JumpStart Advanced Kindergarten, players team up with Frankie and the JumpStart pals as they get ready for a wacky car race. As kids develop important kindergarten skills, they can earn scores of power boosters, such as super-stilt wheels, to customize their own crazy car and unlock five racing arenas. Loaded with arcade action, players will love zipping around colorful landscapes in a race against time to collect scattered treasures in the King's Castle, Jungle Adventure, Pirate's Isle, Candy Land, and Sports Town. Players can compete against their JumpStart pal or play cooperatively with a friend in two-player mode, and collect racing-cup trophies with each race they win.

- FALSE ADVERTISING: Does NOT run under Mac OS X
- The compatibility "information" provided on the box and CD is FALSE ADVERTISING, plain and simple. The box and CD state that the program runs under Mac OS X, but what they mean is that it runs under "classic mode," which is really OS 9.2.
If you try to install it while running OS X, the installer crashes.
Their email technical support is the worst I have ever experienced. More reviews
- Jumpstart computer series
- My husband and I purchased the Jumpstart computer cds for our 6 children for Christmas. We began with just the ones for their grades and ended up buying ALL the cds except for the baby one! To say we are pleased with this series would be a gross understatement! Our children can't get enough! They have improved our 3rd More reviews
- Kindergarten Fun
- My 5 year old son was able to play this program with no assistance after loading it on the computer. He loves earning the carrots on the phonics section. The games are fun and the screens are colorful. We have other Jump Start programs and have been happy with them all. More reviews
