JumpStart's new Madagascar Area Plus 3-Month Membership Giveaway

 My boys and I had the chance to check out JumpStart and its new Madagascar sections. JumpStart really is a neat site that not only helps children develop their computer skills, but their educational skills as well.  I don't like my boys playing video games, but I don't mind them playing educational games, and JumpStart is just the place for that!

  Their our several areas of JumpStart to check out!

I have to admit that I got a little confused when we first started using the game.  I had to read the game guide and ask my husband for a little help.  Once we learned what we were supposed to do, it went a lot smoother and got a lot more fun!

 Even in the preschool classroom the little ones use computers.  I don't think this is a bad thing.  Again, they are playing educational games.  I think that it is great that JumpStart has added a Madagascar area to their site.  I know most kids love the movie, and will want to play the games too.  Since the games are educational,  it is beneficial for the kids to play a few games and have a great learning experience.

 I have to say that after we played Madagascar, the puzzles were their favorite.  I liked anything that helped my preschooler recognize his letters!
