Does anyone know of any good learning software for ages 5-6? I'm fixing a computer for my girlfriend's daughter and I'm trying to get some programs on it that will help her read, maybe some simple math, and things of that nature. Any help would be appreciated.

Learning software for kids
- Thread starter Tedium
- Start date
Well when I was back in grade school there where some games called Math blaster and Reading blaster. They where actually pretty fun to play from what I can remember.
You could look around and see if they are still available. If not then you can just look around the computer software section of most stores and browse through all the educational software.
Hope this helps.

I second the suggestion for the Blaster series software. My daughter has had great fun playing (and learning!) with that software.

Math blaster and Reading BLaster I recommend too. There are new ones out, but I was playing the * Blaster series from 7 till I was like 10. 
What? It was FUN!

Not "learning" maybe, but kids seems to like Tux Paint.
