This is perfect as it teaches a bit of French but is also very entertaining.
My 3 year old uses level 1 as it lets them choose what to click and then tells them the French for it. My 5 year old is on level 2 and loves the challenge as on this level they are directed (in French) what to click.
Very clearly spoken but the instructions for a couple of the games can be a bit vague.
Really gets the job done - and fun! December 9, 2007

My just 5 year old has been using this for a week and knows her colours and quite a few other French words. The games are completely age appropriate for the target users (box says 5-8 and I think that's about right). There are games like: dress the bear; play hide and seek with the mice; pick friends up round town for a party. There are two ways to use: level 1 (click around and learn the vocab) and level 2: play a game with it to earn stars for a reward. This will work best if you sit with your child for the first time through level 1 to stop them getting daunted - then they're away!
French is spoken by native speakers and is nice and clear. No downsides I can think of (except not to get excited about the songs - not really learnable but good for french flavour). Graphics are simple and attractive - great for this age.
One of my favourite educational cd-roms.
