MAGIC SCHOOL BUS IS A TV SHOW AND IN BOOKS AND ON SOFTWARE! [Posted on 2001-05-19] I watch The Magic School Bus every day and i have 2 Magic School Bus Books. But i did not know that The Magic school bus was on software! I love the Magic School Bus!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Poor Value for Money [Posted on 2001-09-12] Don't be deceived. This is not a full-fledged Magic School Bus CD, but is just an activity center. The Magic School Bus CDs fall into two categories: full-fledged exploration programs and activity centers. The full-fledged programs are excellent and represent good value for money. My oldest (age 6) spends hours exploring with MSB Oceans, Animals, Solar System, and Dinosaurs. They are great. On the other hand, he is quickly bored with the Activity Centers, such as Whales and Dolphins, Flight, and Mars. They simply present one screen with things to click on. Since a full-fledged MSB CD has half-a-dozen or more places to explore, the activity centers represent less than 1/6th the value of a full-fledged MSB CD. Don't buy them unless you get them for less than 1/6th the price of the full-fledged CDs, which means don't pay more than [price] for them. They are not worth more.
My 7-year-old son and 4-year-old daughter both love it [Posted on 2002-01-20] My two children play this together, have a lot of fun, and come up with interesting facts about whales and dolphins. I even saw the two of them looking at a book about whales and quizzing each other on the type of whale shown in the pictures. We thought it was a good value, and it convinced me to buy more of the MSB software.
excellent learning tool [Posted on 2002-10-07] My daughter is a dolphin fanatic. She has been in love with these magnificent creatures since the age of 3 (she is now 7). She is also very into science and loves the entire magic school bus series. We have 3 magic school bus cdroms and this is by far her favorite. As with all of the magic school bus books, videos and cdroms it teaches the children in a fun way. they think that they are just playing, but they are learning. This was proven when my son, then 3, told his whole pre-k class about the differnces between toothed whales and baleen whales and also informed everyone that dolphins and whales use echolocation to find food! This is a great game!
