Review of Toddler Bundle (Pooh Toddler, Mickey Toddler, and Book of Pooh)

My 27-month-old son learned to use the mouse independently using the utterly fabulous Fisher-Price Little People Discovery Airport PC game. He also is passionate about playing the wonderful Dr. Seuss Green Eggs and Ham PC game. Wishing to encourage his PC usage, I purchased the Disney toddler bundle. Speaking both as a former computer teacher and current mom, it is a truly boring bundle. Most of the games screens don't require clicking - the actions are triggered if the cursor just passes over the object - so no good mouse manipulation skills are learned. All three games do a lot of talking at the toddler, instead of just letting the toddler click and learn. For example, the Mickey Toddler game has 5 screens - it took my son only 8 minutes to go through all 5 screens, play all 5 games, and then ask for his Airport game instead. There are few hidden surprises for him to find on the screens, and he bored of all three CD-ROMs within one day, while he has been playing his other computer games for over a year.

Just because it has the Disney name on it does NOT make it a good product.
