Bear and Penguin's Big Reading Adventure is another excellent program developed by Dorling Kindersley. It is aimed at children aged 5-7 years old and helps to develop a wide range of literacy skills through four fun games.

Beware the chubby, chattering Zoombinis if you don't want to get hooked to your computer for... Less
