        Hi


        I have that program. However, I did not let my kids play consistently :oops:

        From what I've seen, it's not too bad. Although I find that some of the sessions can be pretty long, repetitive and boring. But I guess that's the reinforcement part.

        It is from the program that I learned 'ae' sounds like 'ee' 😉

        Anyway, I intend to start my kids on the program again, maybe you can PM me to get updates 😄

          I bought that too, impressed at first with the presentation during the

          roadshow in some mall i cannot recall where right now… however aft
          i brought it back, fiddled with it a couple of times with the girls… the
          items were left collecting dust. So i sold it off. The repetition from the
          games didn’t and couldn’t hold their interest for long. Mine too actually.
          But it is definitely a good effort by our own people. We didn’t even use
          the workbooks at the point of sale. My girls were already reading before
          i even managed to show them all of what the set offered. So, i sold mine
          like almost brand new. Only two discs were opened and used. I didn’t find
          it worth paying like 120 with one extra game disc for the entire set. A bit
          ex. Just my personal opinion.
