Guide Review - Software

Tell Me More® Kids is an outstanding program in all aspects. The basic premise of this software package is that users explore an environment by choosing any area that may appeal to them. This non-linear approach is ideal for young learners who don't feel intimidated by an apparent learning agenda.

Learner's are accompanied by two entertaining and informative Spanish speaking characters who explain the exercises and various areas of the software. There is such a wide variety of activities that boredom will surely never be a problem.
