Giggles Computer Funtime for Baby - My Animal Friends [Old Version]

A well produced simple computer program which basically entertains your child while they get familiarized with the keyboard and their screen click coordination. it's a nice program, the kids like it for their young age. but this is not a learning device per -se. plenty of well produced bels, whistles, and nice songs.

We bought this program for my son when he was 8 months old. He is now over 2 and still loves it! Its locking feature prevents his tiny button pushers from harming our computer programs. This is the only program we have purchased/used so I can't necessarily compare and contrast with others, but I would suggest certainly suggest this to others.

High price for a weak program. How hard would it be to show a different picture for each letter. I read the reviews on this Item and they were all good but this program sucks. The screen savor doesn't even work with windows 7. I feel like I got beat what a waste of time and money. After two minutes my son was all set. This program is like putting a child in a round room and telling him to get in the corner. Don't waste your money. Buy your kid a roll of toilet paper he will have more fun with it.

I got this for my son when he was about a year old. He loved seeing mommy tapping on her computer and wanted to play too. So I figured why waste money on those expensive child laptops? This game prevents any data loss while the child is playing. He played this for a YEAR. A YEAR! That's more playtime than kids get out of most toys! He's 26 months now and still likes to watch the fish swim around, but has developmentally moved beyond this. The only thing I don't like is this: just because the target audience is children doesn't mean the creators should skimp on the graphics! I've seen so many poorly put together programs. This is one of them. But I think that's just the graphic designer in me talking. Over all my son loves it and that's what's important!

This program is lots of fun for a baby. It runs a little slowly on our 700 MHz G4 eMac, but our baby loves it. The only critique, though, is that it won't run on a limited account in OS X. The companion game, 123 & ABCs will let me set up the baby's account to allow me to add it to her account's limits list, but the Animal Friends does not. As a result, either I cannot run it on her account, or I have to allow administrator privileges to her account. I cannot do that since her sister also uses the computer.

I bought these for my grandchild when she was 1, and she loved to watch the bright colors and motion. As she grew to be 2, she could use the computer herself to have fun with this disk. Very much fun for them and simple and easy to use.

My daugher, 11 months old, LOVED this software, mostly because she can press on all of the keys and they all make the program work. Some of the places you can go are more entertaining than others but they are all nice. She learned how to mimic a monkey from this software! The only problem I am having is that since my keyboard has buttons that will make certain functions work (i.e. volume, calculator, internet) if she touches any of them it will make that program pop up so I have to be careful she doesn't touch any of them. I suppose if you have a "normal, basic" keyboard you wouldn't have this problem.

great
