Description:

Join the Curious George ABC Adventure to explore six areas full of fun, lively games designed to engage your child in play while building letter development skills. There are six areas in this title: Postcard Capers (sorting,) Bakers Dozen (matching,) Go Fish (alphabetical order,) I Spy a Butterfly (sorting by first letter phonemes,) Sky Writer (letter names & shapes,) and as a bonus, print your own Curious George storybook! Here's Curious George!

Features:

  • Six fun-filled edutainment games.
  • Build letter development skills.
  • Friendly, familiar faces.
  • Innovative activities - like Skywriting!
  • Lots of animated clickables.

Notes:

We upgraded our family PC so that we could run this title! The installation progressed without any hitches and the title ran with no problems. You won't find choppy audio or animation sequences, they ran quite nicely. The only problem we found was a high-pitched squeal that plays each time the program runs. When we exit, the sound stops - it was a bit annoying but we turned down the sound so it wasn't too bad. Let's go Skywriting!

Reactions:

My family loves Curious George - we have the anthology with all the stories, and my husband reads aloud every night to our 2 and 3 year old. They've both enjoyed playing with this title and were quite impressed that "Mom got dat monkey in the 'puter."
