    Default Looking for educational software for 2-4 yo

    I'd love some recommendations on good, easy to use, educational software for my 2 and 3 1/2 yo. They're both so far, loving using the computer and we have 1 Reader Rabbit game they love.
    Thanks

    my son also loved the reader rabbit computer program. but in looking for more toddler-friendly learning games, there didn't seem to be much else. so i looked for some sites on the internet and this one was a real winner with him when he was around 2 yo (and it was a huge help for him to learn his alphabet and expand his vocabulary); i imagine i will also use it when he starts to read:

    then i found this one, which allows you to create profiles for your kids and the "curriculum" is tailored according to your child's age and abilities. there's a free trial period, and then i think it's about $10/month or you can get it less if you pay for a whole year. a big plus is that it has their favorite characters: curious george, berenstein bears, etc. it's nice that all the info is stored online so that you don't have to fuss with CDs. it also has an automatic shut-off, 30-min, 45-min, 60-min controlled by parents:
