"I bought this as my seven year old son was struggling with his spellings at school. I recordered his weekly spellings using a usb microphone (one we use for the wii) and he didnt even realise it was my voice! His spellings improved. I purchased this from dyslexia consultants' dyslexia shop, its the cheapest i could find at £110.00 worth every penny. The games are set a different levels and before your child starts the they do a simple test (all in the form of games) to determine their level. The aim is to collect nuggets to spend at the fairground. You collect nuggets by completing games in each island. You can also print 100's of excellent worksheets off and my six year old daughter now uses it. I have made a folder full of worksheets for my children. I would recommend this if your child doesnt like school work but loves games. The beauty of it is they dont even realise they're learning, my son just thinks its great that he's using mummys laptop!"
