    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.

    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.

    We thought this would help to teach the children some French but, despite the fact that they love playing the games they have not picked up any French from the CD-rom. I suggest you try the DVD and book set called 'French is Fun' They've learnt a lot more from this than the Jump Ahead CD-rom.
