Jump Start 2nd Grade Continues Great Tradition...
We've been buying JumpStart games for the computer since before my eldest daughter started kindergarten. Now that she's headed for 2nd grade, we upgraded and she's been learning braille and doing more math and reading. It's great to see her engaged on the computer with a game she's learning things from!

We homeschool and we use this as an extra for my daughter. she spends at least an hour at a time on it. And it has great games that teach her. definately recommend.

Jump Start Second Grade
I feel kind of weird writing this review because I don't even know why I looked it up in the first place, but I thought it might be interesting for potential buyers to get a perspective from someone who's played the game as a child.

I played through this game with my younger brother when we were in elementary school. We both LOVED IT to pieces. The characters are entertaining, the games are engaging and informative, and of course, fun. I loved the loose story and the quest for stamps and have nothing but fond memories of the entire experience. Indeed, I think it says something when even now, many years later, I still look back on this game and smile. I can still remember the music and characters' voices and all the fun times my brother and I had together going through the puzzles.

I think games like this really helped instill a love of learning in both my brother and myself. We went on to play Jump Start Third and Fourth Grade - both fantastic games in themselves - and really, I know part of it might just be me being a nostalgic 90's kid in general, but I don't feel like there are enough games like this these days. Too many games are based on marketable characters and merchandise. Here's an old classic for you. It's just for fun and learning. :)

Fun game even after I Finished
I'm not xactly a kid anymore, but this is easier.
Anyway, I LOVED this game when I got it from school, it helped me a little and even after I FINISHED 2nd grade, I played it through 5th grade just because it was fun. My little sister also had a fun time with this game when she was in 2nd grade, I highly recommend ths for kids :)

Excited about Learning
I love ALL Jump Start Learning Activities. I bought the Kindergarten, 1st Grade and 2nd Grade. My son loves these programs also, he can't wait to get started on 3rd Grade. I'm so happy to see my son playing with this educational game and I'm sure any parent would want to see their children excited about learning.
