Rafflecopter: JumpStart Games Review and Giveaway!
Award Winning Games!
JumpStart games have already won many awards – like the National Parenting Seal of Approval – and now they are nominated for another one! Every year, the SheKnows Parenting Awards program selects the leading products available to parents in a multitude of categories – from baby gear to eco-friendly gadgets, and everything in between. This year JumpStart.com has been honored as a nominee for the top “Website for Kids” in their entertainment category!
Want to learn why people LOVE JumpStart.com?
Well, I can tell you why WE love it – it is a perfect mixture of fun, learning, and “cool” – meaning, the kids ask to play it all the time! And while we’ve only been exploring the games on the site for about a week now, I can tell that this is something the boys can enjoy for a long time without getting bored – there is SO much to do in this online world. I’m incredibly impressed. And, the more that they explore, and the more activities they complete, the more points they get – which then unlocks even MORE great stuff. This gives them a fun incentive to keep playing and learning!
Some of our Favorite Features:
Little Guy: He just turned 5, and started kindergarten this year, and has some trouble figuring out how to play a lot of the educational games we’ve tried out – even when they’re targeted towards his age bracket. JumpStarts online world has a few areas for him – StoryLand, aimed at 3-5 year olds, plus AdventureLand and MarineLand, designed for kids in kindergarten to second grade. They are just perfect! He can play alone without help, doesn’t get stuck or frustrated – and giggles away like crazy while he explores around! One of his favorites right away was the silly monkeys – The activity gives you a number. Then the monkeys swing out of the trees with different numbers, and he clicks on the one that matches. He LOVES these types of games, and they are really helping to reinforce what he is learning in the classroom.
Big Guy: He is 8 years old, and a bit harder to impress, lol. He is a total video game junkie, and it is tough for me to drag him away from his beloved XBOX Live most afternoons. But – I was really surprised to find that he totally loves the JumpStart world of games too!! He plays the Enchanted Sanctuary land {3rd to 5th grades} where he gets to train his own dragon. I feel quite sneaky, knowing that he’s doing something educational, while he thinks he’s just playing a cool game. There is also a feature on JumpStart.com that you can set up, so that the kids can play with their friends – when you log into your account, you get a “Buddy Code” that you can share with your friends – and then they can add it to their own accounts, and the kids can do live chat and play together! {And I feel MUCH better about this, then when he asks to chat live on the XBOX, that is for SURE!}
What I Love:
I set up the JumpStart Connect, which connects the games with my Facebook page, and lets me stay updated on what the kids are up to while playing.
There are some really great printable worksheets, organized by age group, and categories like math or reading, and you have access to them all right from your site!
