The I Spy Series of books and software are a very good learing tool for all ages. It keeps my grandson who is 3, busy, interested while he is learning for hours at a time.

great for the boys

My son was turned on to I-SPY computer games when he was four years at his friends house. We bought it for him after much insisting on his part. When it came time to buy a gift for his boy cousin who is 9 months younger, my son picked this out to buy for him. We also love the I-SPY books too!

Not compatible with Windows XP

Please use caution when purchasing this product. It is labeled Windows XP Compatible, but it is not. You have to reconfigure your entire system to get the software to work. Once you change your settings, then the software is great and my son loves it. I wish I could explain what you have to do to your computer to get School Days to work, but I had to consult with my brother who is a computer technician...I followed his instructions which were very complicated. He even had to search on google to find out how to fix the error message that kept popping up every time we tried to play it.

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.

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.

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.

Not Windows XP Compatible

I just tossed this one in the trash. It looked like a good game for my girls but unfortunately Scholastic doesn't believe in updating or supporting their products. I'd be very leary of buying any software from this company since software returns are difficult to negotiate. I would appreciate a list of truly Windows XP compatible children's software titles. Windows XP has been around for at least a couple of years now. I don't understand why compatibility is such a problem. Their support site cites that the problem is "you have too much installed RAM." Well, for most software, that is not a "bad" thing.

I spy school days! FUN!!!

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!!
