Annette,
Two math favorites here have been Logical Journey of the Zoombinis and
Disney's MathQuest. They are both full of opportunities for mathematical
problem solving and a lot of fun too.

Has anyone purchased Yoiks? It's supposed to be by the same team that
created Zoombinis.... which I still can't do all of. <G>

We love all of the software from Dorling Kindersley. They are a
shop-at-home company, but they have a website and they can hook you up with
the demonstrator who is closest to you. Also, Zany Brainy, etc, seem to
sell a lot of their titles. We love their software.

Also, we have Math Blaster and Reading Blaster. These are also big hits in
my household.

Good luck,

Bonnie

dont want to add to my book arsenal!
