Toys and Games Reviews of Vtech - Winnie The Pooh - Pooh's Picture Computer

Customer Review: Too advanced for early learners.
Summary: 2 Stars

First, this computer challenges children with their alphabet, spelling, numbers, shapes (circle, square, triangle, and star), colors (blue, red, yellow, and green) and sense of direction (right, left, above, and below).

We bought this computer when my daughter was three. She loves Pooh, but she quickly lost interest. After using it for a few minutes, I realized most of the questions were too advanced for her. It has been rarely used since. My daughter is now four and she finally decided to use the computer as an educational tool. After about two minutes, she became very frustrated and began to pound on the keys. I took the computer and tried to help her. After about five minutes, I figured out why she was still frustrated, even though she is more advanced.

Problem #1: When Pooh gives your child a question to answer, your child has about 15-20 seconds to press a key (it goes by faster than you think). If your child does not respond or she answers the question wrong, it will ask the question again. The computer gives your child three tries and then it moves on. For example, my daughter was in the middle of spelling a word and she got stuck on a letter. When the time limit was up, the answer was wrong and she had to start over again. Uhh! Not exactly "beginner learning friendly".

Problem #2: The keys on the computer only have upper case letters, but the words written on the cards use lower case letters after the first letter. My daughter is still learning her alphabet, so it was difficult for her to identify the letters on the cards with the letters on the keys. Unless your child has mastered the difference between upper and lower case letters, there is no way he/she will be able to spell without your help. By the way, even with my help, we were getting the answers wrong because of the short time limit.

Problem #3: While I found the spelling to be too difficult, I also found the shapes and colors to be too easy. Some questions are meant for 2 to 3 year olds and others are meant for 5 to 6 year olds.

This computer would be perfect if it got rid of the time limit, added lower case letters to the keys, and included learning levels. While I like that they designed the keys in alphabetical order, I would perfer a qwerty designed keyboard.
