A World of Fun & Learning,
Kindergarten Edition

Company: Humongous
Estimated Price: $19.99

http://www.humongous.com

A World of Fun & Learning, Kindergarten Edition, joins A World of Fun & Learning, 1st Grade Edition as Humongous's newest addition to their bundle packages. Besides Putt-Putt Saves the Zoo and Big Thinker's Kindergarten, it also comes with a notebook.

The Putt-Putt Notebook is a great little activity book for any boy or girl. The Activity book is a small six-ringed notebook with a heavy plastic cover with Putt-Putt on the front. Once opened it is divided into four sections, Fun, Learning, Stickers, and Color. The Fun section has all kinds of activities for the parents and children to enjoy together, like mazes and connect the dots. In Learning you have an adventure in telling time, making words and adding and subtracting. There are Stickers, and the Color section holds large pictures to be colored and enjoyed. Actually the whole book (with the exception of the stickers) can be colored and enjoyed. What is so nice about this notebook is that a child can carry it around with them anywhere. Humongous has a website of coloring pages and activities for the young child at http://www.humongous.com/clubhe/color/colorfred.html.

What's included:
Putt-Putt Saves the Zoo and Big Thinkers Kindergarten CDs, Putt-Putt Notebook, a $5.00 CD-ROM rebate, and a coupon for 50 cents off Keebler cookies.

Requirements and Installation
68040 (25MHz or faster) Macintosh with 8MB of RAM, a double-speed CD-ROM, and 256 colors.

Summary

A World of Fun & Learning, Kindergarten Edition, is a great addition to the Humongous lineup. It is wonderfully packaged and the notebook fits into the hands of the smallest adventurer. This makes it available for parent/child activity without the aid of the computer.
