Madagascar Is Now in Jumpstart! ~ My Review Jumpstart.com

Leah is 4 years old now and is really starting to enjoy playing games, not only on the Ipad but also on the computer! One of her new favorite websites is Jumpstart! Jumpstart is an educational website for kids ages 4-12 and with a little of my help she can play all on her own!

This site is super fun and you can even build your own avatar to play the games! There are several different educational games to choose from and Leah loves them! Leah loved choosing an avatar and just playing around with the new site.

The part she loved the most is the Madagascar games and activities. I love that not only are there fun games in the Avatar world but there are lots of printouts too! Leahs favorite part was going into the actual city and seeing her favorite Penguins from the new Madagascar game section!

Here’s some of the game news/new features I was sent from/provided by JumpStart:
