Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Thinkin' Things Collection 3Customer Review: A steal of a deal Summary: 5 Stars
In the midst of PS2 and Nintendo DS and whatever other handheld child mind zappers are out there, it is nice to know there are a few computer products worth your money and your child's time. This is one of them. This product gives your child five ways to THINK using a computer. There are two parts of the program that allow open-ended creative thought. (Try that on an arcade game!!!) Only the MOST perceptive of children will figure out this is educational (read: yucky) the greater majority will just have lots of fun playing with five different features that focus on pattern recognition, physical science and pre-algebra among other skills. Great for my seven-year-old, my four is just starting to get it, but still having fun. A little money well spent. Also check out "Crazy Machines."
