 Technical flaws August 29, 2010
Nutte
The idea is great, but as with so many other kid games the technical implementation is awful. Here are my two main complaints that makes this game almost unplayable:
1. It doesn't scale to your monitor. I.e. if you have a high resolution monitor the game just occupy about 20% of your screen and everything is very small. Talk about waste of space... This is odd as the game is made with Flash which usually scales everything up, so strange that they choose to only support a fixed resolution.
2. You can't do anything while Elmo or the other guys are talking. This is very frustrating as you must listen to the instructions every single time. There is no button to "jump ahead" and you can't even go back if you e.g. clicked a menu option by mistake.
If it weren't for the issues above I would give the game 4 stars, but now I can't recommend it at all as I just get annoyed when trying to play it, so unfortunately it will only get 1 star.
Sesame Street Elmo's World January 19, 2010
Kasey Hanson (Covington, GA United States)
I got this game for my 18 month old. The program installed with no complications the first time. This program features a lot of different activities that is fun to play along with. I also like the fact that as he grows and learns more the games will automatically adjust to meet his skill level. I like having this as a tool to help me teach him different skills.
"ELMO'S WORLD" REVIEW November 30, 2009
L. Watkins
I have four year old triplets who love Elmo. This was their first experience with the computer and they picked up on this game very quickly. I was surprised that they did not need more help. With multiples, I was expecting quite a bit of fighting over play time, but they loved it so much they quickly learned that they need to share in order to play. For that this mommy says "Thank you Elmo"! They loved the fact that the game is very similar to watching Elmo on Sesame Street or the Elmo dvd's. It has great graphics and music for pre-schoolers. There did seem to be a lot of time where the children were listening instead of interacting with the game, although this did not seem to bother them. It was also a little timely when you decided to end. It could be that they are at the high end of the age recommendation, but the games do seem quite easy for them. But all in all they love it, and I think that it is beneficial in introducing them to the computer world using a character that they all love.

 Age Adaptible, Fun Program November 23, 2009
Kimberly Fears (St. Louis, MO)
Lots of fun! This one I even enjoyed watching! Elmo's World doesn't hold the interest of my 6 year old for long periods of time, but is just the right amount of fascinating for the 2 ½ year old. She thought Elmo was really talking to her, and she laughed and said `Listen Mawmaw!' every time. This program is easy to use, and even at her young age she had no trouble navigating. This would be a great gift for a young preschooler, and would provide fun, learning and introduction to computers all at the same time.

We love Elmo! November 23, 2009

What's not to love about Elmo! We really like this program. And the best part about it is that it has so many fun categories. Bugs, shoes, telephones, farm animals, and more. Each category has multiple activities to play. Mr. Noodle is even there! It holds my son's attention very well and we both have fun playing with it. I would highly recommend this program to any Elmo lover out there!
(On a side note....every time I clicked on the Bugs category, the screen went white and the program would freeze up. Just thought I would tell you about it in case it is a commonly reported problem. It could just be my computer though. Ya never know!)
