Be wary because this software will not work with Windows XP. I Spy Junior and I Spy Spooky Mansion will not work either. I looked EVERYWHERE on the net for troubleshooting help and nada!
Avoid at all costs

I agree with the reviewer who urges you to stay away from this and other Scholastic products if you run Windows XP. I received School Days and Spooky Mansion today but can't get either to run on XP, even though I am generally quite adept at working with computers. I will never buy another product from this company, even if it works well on XP. These products say they work with "Windows 95, 98, 2000 or later." Don't believe it.

Just a great fun game with so many rooms and levels. My 7 year old loves it and it helps in learning to concentrate! I like watching her play. There is a room where she can make her own clues for an I spy game. How fun is that and gives a child the room to invent and create!! Buy!!
Great Learning Tool

My children love the I-Spy games and they will choose it over almost any other computer game they own. This one is great because it is almost like a scavenger hunt. Kids learn a lot from it, but I still like the original Treasure Hunt better just because it actually seems to have one central theme instead of the randomness of the school days.
fun game

We originally bought the digital download from Scholastic. But after two computer crashes, they refused to give me my code for a third time. I bought this for a FRACTION of what I paid for it from scholastic. My son is crazy about I Spy and this game is wonderful.
Great game that is educational too!

My 4 year old loves this game and I don't feel bad if she sits and does it for a while because it is educational as well. I was worried that it may be too hard for her since she is under the recommended age but she has not had a problem with it at all. In fact, she has discovered things on it that we didn't even know about.
Can't find 12th ladybug!

I really like this game but I am annoyed that I can't find the last ladybug in the find me game. I can find no game hint support sites either. Has anyone else had this problem? Is it a bug (ha ha) in the program? I have spent weeks looking but always find the ones I've already found. Can anyone out there help me? I am not a child, but my daughter can't find it either. Apparantly the game will not finish until all bugs are found because I have found all the treasures. Does this game not have more than one complete game to play? I thought it had 3 like treasure hunt.
Thanks,

If your child likes the books, he/she will love the CD-ROM. The great thing is that it is interactive so it's not pure sit back entertainment. The only negative thing is once they have mastered all the things, it becomes boring. That's O.K. if the price remains reasonable.
