Description:

Frog and Toad are Friends is the most versatile of the FoxToons recent releases. It includes stories and games, a letter writing area, matching, and more. The areas to explore include The Great Button Hunt, Silly Swimsuits, Wake Up, Toad, and Snail Mail. These games are way too hard for 4 year olds, even on Level 1 - your child needs to be able to read and recognize letters/sounds to be able to do much with this.

Features:

• Shape and color matching.
• Sequencing events.
• Matching letters and objects.
• Matching words and objects.

Reactions:

Our kids enjoyed listening to the stories included but overall, the games would be more appropriate for ages 6 to 8. Younger kids will become frustrated and then bored, and with the proliferation of kid's software, there's no reason to subject them to it (unless you review software and they help you!) It's a good value for the money, just don't think it's preschool level activities here - that isn't the case.
