.com Travel through time with Putt-Putt and use your quick wits to help him find his buddy Pep in Putt-Putt Travels Through Time. Mr. Firebird's techno time machine has malfunctioned and sucked in Pep the dog, Putt-Putt's history paper, lunchbox, and calculator, and flung them through time. Players join Putt-Putt on an adventure-of-the-centuries that visits four different time periods. Along the way, meet Ms. Brachiosaurus--she holds the key to unlocking the secrets of the dinosaurs--and see what pans out when you visit Silverado Sam, the prospector from the Old West. Don't forget to feed the dragon in King Chariot's medieval castle, and be sure to check out Darien the librarian from the future--he just may have the book you need. These are a few of the delightful friends who help players reunite Putt-Putt with his pal while encouraging critical thinking, listening, and memory skills, and reinforcing good social skills.

fun software for older little kids
If your child has played beginning software like JumpStart and is ready to move on to more advanced gameplay, Humongous Entertainment's Putt-Putt series (and Freddi Fish and Pajama Sam, as well) are an excellent choice. These titles take the cognitive tasks up a notch as children must accumulate specific items, navigate a number of locations, and use their problem-solving skills to help their friends and achieve larger goals. Along the way, kind and gentle Putt-Putt and his dog Pep will meet a number of nice characters, visit a variety of interesting locations and play games as they complete the larger tasks.In Putt-Putt Travels in Time, the overarching goal is to collect the items that have been sucked into a malfunctioning time machine, but along the way he will perform a variety of smaller tasks. I would rate this specific game a little lower than the other Putt-Putt titles because it is more complex and harder to follow, as the events take place in different tunnels -- prehistory, the Old West, a medieval castle and the future. This title may be more appropriate for the older kids in the suggested age range of 3-8 years old.This is a still a fun game in a great series. We have 5 Putt-Putt titles and enjoy them all.

Another Good Child Computer Game
This item was exactly as advertised and shipped exactly as scheduled. I obtained several of the series of these games for my son, and he definitely like playing all of them. Good, non-violent games.

Love Putt-Putts Software!
This software is a great learning tool; Only Hitch is you must have an older operating system XP or earlier in order to use some and in a couple cases works best on WIN98... If you have an older operating system for kid use, Putt-Putts is one of the Best.

One Of The Best Kids CDs Ever
This is a great way to introduce your toddler to the computer since almost everything on every screen is "clickable." It's also a great way to introduce young kids to critical thinking since you need to collect objects from different periods in time in order to solve the game. Our 3 year old has been using this CD for 18 months now and never gets tired of discovering new properties to it. This version by Infograms contains a separate balloon game that our boy is going to love. But nothing beats the original balloon game located "behind a wall" in a middle-ages castle!

FYI this game doesn't work with a Mac.
FYI this game doesn't work with a Mac. The description is misleading. Had to return it and there was a restocking fee. Big bummer!
