A team of friendly animals invite you to climb aboard their bus as soon as you have quickly installed this CD-ROM. Simply type in your name on a clipboard and the cheerful bus starts up and drives you into the town.
You can visit the bakery, which resembles an enormous pink birthday cake, go to the fire station or play on the merry-go-round. The imaginative town automatically generates all kinds of sounds from birds singing to noisy police car sirens and offers a number of fun educational games.
In the bakery, young children are invited to ice a cake. Each right move is praised and rewarded with stars. And in the fire station children can click around to match different objects--if they find two the same then the teddy bears can climb aboard the fire engine.
This CD-ROM is accompanied by catchy songs and there is always a friendly character to explain what you can do. As soon as you leave an area they always say how sorry they are to see you go.
Jump Ahead Nursery 2000 successfully creates a supportive and welcoming environment for learning. The on-screen activities will require some parental supervision at first but they are bound to help children (aged three to five years) learn to recognise sounds, shapes and lots of new colours. --Justin Hunt
