Software Reviews of Jumpstart Learning Games Music Ages 5-8
Customer Review: A great introduction to a variety of music concepts!
Summary: 4 Stars
Our game arrived last night. For the most part my [...] loved playing it. I thought the variety of musical activities and the story line made the program fun. She takes violin lessons and it reinforced a number of the concepts she had learned. Sir Sour Note is a bit creepy but she didn't seem to mind.
She especially liked the area where she could make her own music and listen to what she had created. I was impressed by how quickly she picked up the various activities. And yes as one reviewer said I needed to stay in the room with her. But I don't see that as a negative.
The only down side (as others have mentioned) is that the rhythm areas where you copy an animated character's rhythm are a bit too challenging to mimic with a space bar. The space bar is too sensitive for little fingers and makes extra beats. The software is old generation, but not dated. It is inexpensive so worth the money. Hopefully it will be updated because it is hard to find good music software for children!
