Computer Cool School

My son is 8 and has special needs. We are looking for a program that will help him gain some computer skills and that is fun, but is not too easy. He is smart probably has comprehensive skills between 5-7 year old. Please help if you have experience with these systems! Only serious responses!

I don't own either one but thought about getting one or the other for my son.
I've read a lot about them both & I think the Computer Cool School is the way to go, I have read COUNTLESS reviews that kids choose this 10 to 1 over the Leapfrog Clickstart.
We are waiting just a little longer, when my son is around 2 1/2-3 before we buy the Cool School. I am very excited I know he will love it, as he loves to play on our computer - He is 2.

The ONLY negative thing I see about is that you have to more than likely buy the extra pc games online as I see no wher ein stores that sell the games/cd's for the cool school. Of course Maybe I hadn't looked everywhere, but I did see that the Clickstart had games/cd's right in the store.

Good Luck with your decision sorry I couldn't help more.
If you put in google Computer Cool School or Clickstart or some variances like this you will get real moms talking about how their kids like the cool school over the clickstart or vice versa and why.

Fisher Price Computer Cool School Fun 2 Learn DEMO.

I got Windows XP, do I need to purchase a separate sound card?

You may need a sound card. Do you not have one? Look in the device manager to see if you have a sound hardware conflict. What are the system requirements for a fisher price cool school? (I'm guessing its for the little one's).

Seems like reviews are mixed for them, does anyone have/or has seen both and compared them firsthand? Thanks!
Thanks, but my kids already know how to use the reg. computer and they both have sev. games that screw it up all the time! Hence the reason for wanting to purchase their OWN thing to dink around on. They also LOVE puzzles, blocks, and paint or draw every day. Thanks Everyone.

leep frog all the way
