5 out of 5 stars Fantastic   October 13, 2007

The best CD about dinosaurs. My kids love this CD. They go on it all the time.


2 out of 5 stars disappointing   September 18, 2005
 4 out of 10 found this review helpful

My 4 year old son has been playing computer games for about 6 months and does really well at navigating the mouse and listening for instructions. I sit with him until I know he knows how to play. I can't leave him with this one. You have to search to find where you want to go and the information I think it gives on the dinosaurs is either below or above his level. He knows alot about dinosaurs and this doesn't expand on anything. I think maybe if it were a little more realistic...and the game gets stuck and acts slowly.


5 out of 5 stars Great lessons on the ocean   October 15, 2004

This piece is great for kids. You should also consider the adventures of Captain -- Captain Jon's Island Adventure and Captain Jon Explores the Ocean.


5 out of 5 stars Great game if you want to learn about marine biology!!   August 12, 2004
 3 out of 3 found this review helpful

This is such a cool game! The Magic School Bus games are all quite good. I really like how you can visit many different ocean zones so you can see that not all parts of the ocean are alike. It is unique that you can "perform" your own science experiments on the same program that you can play fun games on. I like the game with the crab. :)
If your child shows any interest in marine biology, I highly recommend that you purchase this game!



3 out of 5 stars MSB does the ocean... not as well as I'd hoped!   July 7, 2004
 6 out of 6 found this review helpful

I am a MSB fan and am trying to get my young children interested too. The Ocean was the first MSB software we got, and I'm afraid it will be the last. It's ok, but I'm disappointed that the software doesn't load correctly (on 3 different computers and 2 operating systems (win98, XP)! None worked right!). It will start, but it is very difficult to navigate the first few times until you "learn" where things are. Finding out where to go and what to click on is trial and error for the most part. Maybe I just haven't "found" the good stuff yet, but I was hoping for better!
