Description:

Get ready to help Dee Dee the Duck explore Grandma's house and magical garden in Knowledge Adventure's JumpStart Toddler. The program is designed to introduce toddlers, 18 months to 3 years, to the alphabet, numbers, colors, musical instruments and 200+ vocabulary words.

Toddlers visit Lily Pond where DeeDee helps out some of her friends. In Grandma's Flower Garden they can play with a beautiful Butterfly and watch flowers change color. Visit Chippy's Treehouse and help Chippy Woodpecker carve shapes out of wood. Picture Playtime is where tots color and have sticker fun or create their own pictures. Peek-a-Boo Woods is a cute game of hide-and-seek. Musical Waterfall lets little ones explore music and ABC Toadstools teaches letters.

For away from the computer learning, parents can print the impressive 32 page printable workbook that ties in beautifully with the JumpStart Toddler program and offers hours of fun and learning with a little help from an adult.

Parents can also visit the JumpStart Website and utilize the Parents Resource Center where they can have questions answered such as, "at what age should a child know the alphabet?". The website also offers parents the opportunity to join the Bulletin Board (Coming Soon), get additional Teacher Tips and, through Assessment Test (Coming Soon), find out where their child belongs in the JumpStart Learning System.
