Amazon.com Review

The Blaster learning series has long been popular with children and parents because of its award-winning combination of comprehensive curriculum skills and visually exciting graphics. In Math Blaster for First Grade, children are introduced to measuring and comparison, time, sequencing, addition and subtraction, and story problems.

Like all programs in this series, it manages to totally avoid boring old "skill and drill" and launches kids into an exciting gamelike environment that doesn't feel like homework. Whether this program is introduced at the beginning of the school year or later as a summerrefresher, you'll find it appropriate for most first graders, as it includes five different levels of difficulty. And with 150 different lessons and over 1,000 problems and puzzles to solve there's more than enough to keep children interested.

There are also lots of helpful tips that are great for encouraging those who need that extra bit of instruction. By using"Parent Tracker," it's easy for you to view and monitor your child's progress, and there are printable certificates for positive reinforcement. Whether you child is struggling in math, or in need of new challenges, Math Blaster is sure to provide your first grader with hours of both learning and fun. --Jill Lightner ... Read more

You can't go wrong with this purchase!
I have purchased almost all of the "Blaster" titles (Reading Blaster, Math Blaster, etc) and they are all excellent! You can't go wrong with these! These are truly "Edutainment". Games that just happen to teach at the same time. My daughter loves them and with their help is reading at a fourth grade level - and she's in 1st grade. All the games in the Blaster series keep the same recognizable characters. All have great songs that the kids love.

A++ In my book!

A fun Math Learing tool
This teaches children good math skills in a fun sort of way and does not make it feel like a homework. My daughter likes zoo animals very much, so she really likes to play with this software.She loves the feeding time and bath time for the animals, loves chasing the animals arround.

What I like as a parent is the parent traker option where I can track the childs progress. This is a must have Software. Really fun and good graphics and setup.Must say the Blaster series have done a good job again. ... Read more

Similar to the Magic 3D, just more coloring pages
This software is similar to the first Magic 3D one, except this one has more varieties. Great for kids 6 and under. Cause once you get to 7 years old, 2nd grade, this type of coloring would become boring. ... Read more

TV is NOT a "treat"
Our 3 year old loved the Reader Rabbit game so much that we got tired of it and bought her JumpStart Advanced Preschool. What a disappointment. None of the activities are as interesting or educational as Reader Rabbit and, worst of all, the player is regularly given a "treat", the opportunity to go to the playroom. What is in the playroom? Some drawings of toys (none of which are interactive) and a tv that shows tinny versions of nursery rhymes. So the message is that learning games are ok, but the real treat is watching tv! ...
