Customer Reviews

Waist of my money.
I was looking forward to getting this product for my 7 year old daughter as a supplement to her school work (second grade). Needless to say, I was VERY disappointed with the product and felt that it was a complete waist of money. Maybe it is the way the lessons are presented, but I found them to be preschool in nature. It may be useful for children who are struggling with basic concepts, but definitely not for the "average" elementary schooler. The included Encyclopedia was the ONLY thing I found useful.

great for homeschoolers
I use this product as an substuite for my kids who's age range is 4-8.This product has such a joyful varitey of activities that it is used everyday. I recommaned this product for those students who struggle withsimple concepts or just for fun.
