my son got the first cd rom thomas the great festival adventure and loved that one this one is slighty more advanced it's for 3 to 6 years well i think it might be a bit hard for the very young they do have three grades from easy to difficult i have only got it for xmas and my son is only still on the first grade if your child is only learning to use the mouse there is a lot more to do with this one i think he will get to love it the graphics are great in this one
