I want to like this program, but am still on the fence. We tried it for a few days for my DD who just turned 4, but I found the graphics and silliness annoying (but I'm not 4 so what do you expect, but I tend to like to keep things simple and not over-stimulating for her) and the directions and pace were painfully slow. It also broke things down into tiny parts that are not neccessary for her, and it was hard to find the right level. The grade expectations seemed really low to me, and the level never seemed right so I canceled it after a few days, but am considering trying it again just to give us something to do when it is rainy and she is bored and I need to clean etc. Based on others reports, I bet the program is better for older students or students who need early reading etc. really broken down for them.
