Summary: Fantastic
Comment: The best CD about dinosaurs. My kids love this CD. They go on it all the time.
Customer Rating: 
Summary: disappointing
Comment: My 4 year old son has been playing computer games for about 6 months and does really well at navigating the mouse and listening for instructions. I sit with him until I know he knows how to play. I can't leave him with this one. You have to search to find where you want to go and the information I think it gives on the dinosaurs is either below or above his level. He knows alot about dinosaurs and this doesn't expand on anything. I think maybe if it were a little more realistic...and the game gets stuck and acts slowly.

Summary: Great lessons on the ocean
Comment: This piece is great for kids. You should also consider the adventures of Captain -- Captain Jon's Island Adventure and Captain Jon Explores the Ocean.

Summary: Great game if you want to learn about marine biology!!
Comment: This is such a cool game! The Magic School Bus games are all quite good. I really like how you can visit many different ocean zones so you can see that not all parts of the ocean are alike. It is unique that you can "perform" your own science experiments on the same program that you can play fun games on. I like the game with the crab. :)
If your child shows any interest in marine biology, I highly recommend that you purchase this game!

Summary: MSB does the ocean... not as well as I'd hoped!
Comment: I am a MSB fan and am trying to get my young children interested too. The Ocean was the first MSB software we got, and I'm afraid it will be the last. It's ok, but I'm disappointed that the software doesn't load correctly (on 3 different computers and 2 operating systems (win98, XP)! None worked right!). It will start, but it is very difficult to navigate the first few times until you "learn" where things are. Finding out where to go and what to click on is trial and error for the most part. Maybe I just haven't "found" the good stuff yet, but I was hoping for better!
