Review: PreK versus Kindergarten/Level 1: I bought this program for a 4 year old. I had previously, although many years ago, used the Kindergarten program with much success. The PreK program teaches colors, shapes and alphabet sounds vs. the Kindergarten/Level 1 program which focuses on short vowel and alphabet sounds. The PreK program has a CD which has songs that correlate with the colors and shapes. For the alphabet sounds-the songs are all on audiotapes(which is rather outdated; individual A-Z alphabet cards; a alphabet chart (both which correlate with the phonics songs on audiotape). I'd prefer if the alphabet sound songs were on CD and available for purchase separately, which actually prepares a more advanced child. The PreK program comes with many alphabet pages that help in practicing the main sound by allowing the child to say the sound and circle the appropriate pictures which begin with that sound. These I found to be very helpful. It also offers stickers as positive reinforcements/rewards.
