My Daughter love Putt Putt

I was looking for games to help my daughter learn to use the computer, and that was fun. Of course my daughter is 8 years old now, but at the time she was around 5. The graphics are cartoonist and it really appealed to my daughter. It was challenging but not too hard for her to understand. The interface was very easy since all she had to do is click items and move them to these little bubbles at the bottom of the screen. This was not her first Putt Putt game, but because she enjoyed her first one I had to get more. I even enjoyed playing it the first time. I highly recommend it along with other humongous games.

Another Winner!

This is another winning game from Humongous Entertainment! My girls are 4 & 3 and will sit for hours to play these games. This one takes a little more thought as you go from one era in time to another - but teaches so much! Don't tell your kids that they are learning something tho, cuz they'll never know with all the fun they are having! I highly recommend this game & all of the Humongous games! Freddi Fish, Pajama Sam, Spy fox - all worth the money!! press F1 key to get hints on the game play!

When my daughter played this game her eyes lighted up. She was laughing really hard. This game is I think the best that I have ever seen in this putt putt series. It defenitly is worth the money and time.

A little difficult at first, but worth the effort

I bought this game in a variety pack at a wholesale store for my 4 year old. At first, he had a little trouble with the game as far as operating the controls and understanding what was expected. Eventually, he got around that and has started playing by himself. As with any kids' software, parents should always play with the children as they start. There will be a learning curve, but you have to keep at it and be patient. This game teaches problem solving, shapes, puzzles, direction following and several other skills. One of the really neat aspects is that you have to go to different areas to find solutions to problems in places you have already been. For instance, you might need something from the Wild West to solve a puzzle in Medieval Land. There is a lot of back and forth, but it is really worth it when your child figures it out. Our son has a speech delay and it has also helped with his word recognition and ability to communicate.

the best of the putt putts

My kids adored putt putt, the car always ends up there favorite colour, with my youngest its green, my girl turns it blue and my eldest ends up with a red car.
This one is the most randomised of the lot, four things to find in four time zones. Each of the things has a place to hide in each time zone. In any given game each time zone can only hide one item. So there are sixteen hiding places and sixteen different puzzles/sequences to follow to find each item and you only get four of those sixteen in any game. So you can see that this game has great replayability. You seldom get exactly the same game.
On top of this you have to help out Toby the train and there are two things that it could be either fill him with water or feed his fire, another random puzzle.
This is a fun game and a must have for kids who adore putt putt, a real favorite with younger kids and one they will come back to again and again.

One Of The Best Kids CDs Ever

This is a great way to introduce your toddler to the computer since almost everything on every screen is "clickable." It's also a great way to introduce young kids to critical thinking since you need to collect objects from different periods in time in order to solve the game. Our 3 year old has been using this CD for 18 months now and never gets tired of discovering new properties to it. This version by Infograms contains a separate balloon game that our boy is going to love. But nothing beats the original balloon game located "behind a wall" in a middle-ages castle!

3 year old LOVES Putt Putt

I came on to Amazon to see if there were other titles in the Putt Putt series since my son loves this game so much. I would not have guess that he would get the game as well as he has. He is able to navigate the entire game and solve the problems which can be quite complex (in one senerio Putt Putt can't get past some thorny vines in the Dinosaur world - Max figured out that he needed the armor from the Castle world which he had to buy with a nickel picked up from Western World). Putt Putt helps you along and everything is explained very well.
The best part of the game is that it changes every time it is played.
Every child has different learning levels, especially at this age (3-5) so it may not work out for your child as it does mine.

A Fabulous Adventure

This is the best computer game for young children that I have ever seen. I am buying my young niece her own copy because her older brother and sister have put so many gooey fingerprints from repeated playings on the first copy I bought.

Trying to teach a young child about the passage of time is a daunting task, but they always will remember Putt-Putt.

Great Game

Its amazing how creative this game and all other Putt Putt games are. Don't hesitate to get this for a child of any computer skill level. All the controls are purely intuitive.
