Thinkin' Things Collection 3 (Jewel Case) Reviews
Customer Rating:Summary: Doesn't work on Mac OS X, but the Seller was awesome...
Comment: The seller is awesome! He included an extra bonus disc with my purchase. The items arrived on time and in perfect condition. I would definitely purchase from this seller again!
The product unfortunately doesn't work on my Mac although it is supposed to be Mac compatible. It does, however, work on PC XP. Not the fault of the seller though that the item is not Mac compatible (at least not with my Mac).
Customer Rating:
Summary: A steal of a deal
Comment: In the midst of PS2 and Nintendo DS and whatever other handheld child mind zappers are out there, it is nice to know there are a few computer products worth your money and your child's time. This is one of them. This product gives your child five ways to THINK using a computer. There are two parts of the program that allow open-ended creative thought. (Try that on an arcade game!!!) Only the MOST perceptive of children will figure out this is educational (read: yucky) the greater majority will just have lots of fun playing with five different features that focus on pattern recognition, physical science and pre-algebra among other skills. Great for my seven-year-old, my four is just starting to get it, but still having fun. A little money well spent. Also check out "Crazy Machines."
