Could you recommend software for a preschooler?

[praisefor3]

I'd like to get a computer game/program for dd 3 1/2 (almost.) Oh I didn't think there might be some good web sites for preschoolers. Anyhow, I'd like something on the computer for fun and/or learning for presschoolers. If you know of anything I'd appreciate the advice!

You might have to sit with your little one, but both of my kids started playing around on their own when they were about

www.starfall.com (http://www.starfall.com)

My preschoolers haved enjoyed PBSKids.com and Reader Rabbit Toddler and Kindergarten.

I really like starfall as well, and after sitting with them for the first few sessions, they should be able to navigate the site mostly on their own.

We also have JumpStart Spanish (and I think JumpStart Preschool), and we use the Spanish one occasionally, but we really prefer Starfall.

My 3 year old LOVES http://www.nickjr.com, http://www.pbskids.com, and http://www.noggin.com. I was looking for actual cds to buy for him when I realized there was MORE than enough games on just these three websites. I let him play on these while I do some school with my 9 year old dd. I am absolutely amazed at how much he has learned from these games.

They have tons of free, simple games with colorful graphics. If you subscribe you get access to more games and no ads. We have subscribed sometimes, sometimes not, it is still a good site even without the subscription.

http://www.uptoten.com is the main page.
