Summary: Great interactive learning
Comment: A great disk, both my kids loved it, I bought this to try and get my little boy to advance with his reading and he loves it. Takes a while to figure out how to get into the different rooms, but both my 4 year old and 6 yr old can work the computer by themselves using this software, it really is easy. A great interactive program.

Summary: Great on XP but does not work on Vista !
Comment: Excellent package which worked well on my old XP PC, my daughter loved doing the fractions, however, I bought my daughter a laptop with Vista only to find the Jump Ahead sound doesn't work on it !
This is the comment from the software company's web site "This is a known issue when running this title on Windows Vista. Unfortunately there is no way around this at present and the developers have no plans to resolve this issue." So keep on XP or buy something else !

Summary: mabel
Comment: Some of this was age-appropriate for my 4.5 yr.old but the text comes up very small on the tiny amount of screen it uses, which is a nonsense when learning to read. The dog's voice is quite frankly annoying and the computer voice in the phonics game is inaudable! Not enough of a challenge all-round...we prefer 'Bear and Penguin's Big Reading Adventure' and 'Bear and Penguin's Big Maths Adventure' for ages 5-7yrs.

Summary: Works on XP too
Comment: Good, cheap CD rom for children in year 1. After owning the Starting school jump ahead CD ROM, my daughter got straight into this one and loves it. Well worth the money.
Customer Rating:
Summary: A must buy
Comment: This is the best thing I have bought for my children in ages (aged 4 & 5)they are both addicted and it has actually given my youngest the interest and confidence to use the computer rather than just watch. They are still finding new things to do and I will certainly be buying more in this series.

Jump Ahead Year One supports the National Curriculum for five to six-year-olds. The CD-ROM is another excellent program by Focus Multimedia in their "Children" series, "a range of educational entertainment that not only keeps the little ones quiet, but teaches them essential core skills and tentatively introduces them into the realms of computing." Franky the Dog has been enlisted to help in the classroom, making recipes, serving up lunch, among other fun activities, all of which teach basic maths skills (addition and subtraction, simple fractions, telling the time, money value and quantities); reading skills (stories and poems, reading comprehension, vocabulary, rhyme, language skills and visual discrimination); and art and music (creativity, music and memory, listening to songs on the jukebox, basic composition skills and listening skills). All these activities are presented in a fun way and offer opportunities at different levels with progress reports, assessments and a printable workbook. There is also a pamphlet containing basic technical and installation information, which should be read before starting. This is an updated version of the award-winning original and is well worth investing in as it will occupy and educate children effortlessly. --Susan Naylor
