Amazon.co.uk Review
Learning is an ongoing process for everyone, and it is particularly important to encourage children to learn. New experiences of all types enable children to learn naturally, but it is also important to provide structured experiences to help them to develop skills that are needed for school. Reader Rabbit Junior is designed to do just that, and has been produced in conjunction with education professionals, parents and children. It is one of a range of systems specifically designed by The Learning Company, and is suitable for children 4-6 years old. It uses reading, arithmetic and problem solving to encourage and heighten a child's interest and learning. The package consists of two discs, "Reader Rabbit's Personalised Junior" and "Reader Rabbit's Personalised Learning Centre". Disc one uses that ADAPT Learning Technology which is designed to constantly adapted to match each player's growing abilities:
  • A--assesses abilities
  • D--develops skills
  • A--adjusts levels
  • P--provides help
  • T--tracks progress

Reader Rabbit and his friends are getting ready for a campfire party, and the activities and games provide opportunities to extend skills in early reading, letters and numbers, similarities and differences, simple arithmetic, ordering and sequencing, measurement, critical thinking, directional words, time concepts, seasons and months, social skills, problem solving. All activities support the National Curriculum Key at Stage One. This disc is a perfect "follow-on" for children who have already mastered the personalised Reader Rabbit Nursery package.

Disc two is a unique program that allows parents and teachers to view the progress of each player. Personalised workbooks and activities, based on the individual progress of each player, and reward certificates can be printed. Also included is an excellent, 33-page comprehensive booklet explaining all aspects of the package in great detail. Particularly helpful is a section entitled "troubleshooting" with guidance on simple problems.

All in all, this is a first-class package that uses fascinating characters, excellent graphics and sounds, and uses skill levels and games that can be fitted and adapted to meet children's individual needs. Easy to set up and install, it is an excellent educational tool for children. --Susan Naylor

4.0 out of 5 stars Well worth the money, 18 Jan 2002
This is the 3rd Reader rabbit title we have brought for our daughter now 3, she loved the first 2 (preschool & toddler)although they have now been renamed.

Reader rabbit junior carries on in the same tradition and keeps our daughter busy and intersted for at least an hour if we let it, as the age band on the box says it is for the 4-6 age band but with the new ADAPT technology it is very flexible and in most of the activities megan (our daughter)can manage on her own and with our help in the activities that she still struggles with. In this game Reader Rabbit and Matty have to travel round a kids holiday camp collecting items as they finish the level etc.

This is so that they can organize a camp out party.
We have loved all the reader rabbit titles so far but if you are a Windows XP user like us you may have a few problems getting it running at first but it is well worth the hassle as the first thing Megan wants to do every morning is to play reader rabbit.

3.0 out of 5 stars top game, 9 May 2001
By A Customer
This is a fairly decent game of which the idea is to listen to a rabbit for a few minutes and then answer simple questions about wot he has just done previously. The graphics aren't bad and the lifespan makes it a good allround game. The amount of knowledge you can gain from this game is phenominal, so many useful tips and quizes on it to adapt your IQ immensely. Unfortunately the game is rather slow making it a bit teadious at times.All in all the game is a big succes for those of us who think gameplay means learning.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good all rounder, 22 Nov 2001
By A. Sotheran (Bristol, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
A challenging game for 4 year old and will need some input from an adult to start with, but will soon be using the cd-rom unaided. My son now 5 loves this cd-rom and can now boot-up and shut down the Pc and just gets on with his game by him self. There are a lot of different activites and still offer a challange after a year of use.
