New Wii game for Jumpstart “Escape From Adventure Island”

JumpStart has a new game for the Wii console and my kiddos were some happy campers getting to check it out before its public release.

It has great learning games for ages 5-9 years old.  But I’ll tell you a little secret, my oldest daughter kept saying “Mom, I’m 13 and this game is so fun.”

The graphics on this game were excellent….  There are several learning  levels in the game, we chose easy for my ballerina all the way up to hard for my oldest.

One level has our adventurer flying in her space suit to specified letters.  Like find the word that ends in “S”.  Or find the verb.

Another great level has our adventurer finding answers to math problems or the spelling of numbers.

There are over 150 learning games that help with Math, Reading and Critical Thinking Skills.  This is an excellent game that makes learning FUN!  And that is a big help isn’t it?  I definitely recommend this newest installment from the totally cool folks at JumpStart.com.  I can’t say enough good things about this game.

Want a chance to win a copy of your very own?  Great here is how.

Good Luck!
