Preschool Software - There is a lot to chose from!
When searching for entertaining, yet educational, preschool software for your kids; it can be difficult to know where to begin. In this article I will give a description of a few preschool software products I recommend, to help you find what you are looking for.
For the child who loves to color; a great preschool software product to check out would be; Crayola: Amazing Animals 3D Coloring Book. In this program, preschoolers of any age will develop self-expression and early computer skills while exploring the 20 pages to color with 40 different colors to chose from. “3D-lightful” coloring is the theme along with sound effects, and spectacular 3D textures and patterns.
A great preschool software program to teach the alphabet is; Dr. Seuss ABC’s . Pre-readers can chose “read to me mode”, where children who can’t operate the computer on their own can learn electronically. This wonderfully entertaining preschool software program will make learning fun as they work through interactive pages filled with colorful graphics and catchy music, all done the “Dr. Seuss” way.
Does your child love “Dora the Explorer”? In this preschool software game, children help Dora and Boots return library books. Along the way kids help Dora and her animal friends solve problems, figure out puzzles, and play exciting games. There is even an on-screen sticker book.
My top choice for rainy days would be; “Little Bear Rainy Day Activities” . There are over 50 activities to keep young minds busy: from picture puzzles to counting games. This wonderful preschool software will enable children to enjoy designing their own pictures, cards and puzzles to play with on or off the computer. They will build skills in memory and matching, decision making, problem solving and counting.
The best-selling alphabet book by Bill Martin Jr. and John Archambault has inspired the next preschool software CD is called; “Chicka Chicka Boom Boom”. Your children will effortlessly learn the alphabet through music, rhyme, animation, and play along activities. Ray Charles becomes the narrator through the animated book. Parents can even sing karaoke to the Chicka Chicka Boom Boom song with their preschoolers!
The successful sequel to “How Many Bugs in a Box?”, David A. Carter‘s pop-up book “More Bugs in Boxes” is also the title for this next preschool software CD. Kids will love designing their own bugs, build bugs from instruction, even create singing bugs. The 9 games in this program promote the use of logic and problem solving as well as creativity. This educational program will teach important concepts, entertain with sing-along songs, and kids can read along with the 10 page electronic story book.
Have fun learning with your children!
