I recently upgraded my system, purchased a 2 speed cd rom player, and encarta. I have 3 children, aged 4, 7, and 10. Of course, I am now under major pressure to buy some new games. I'd like to receive recommendations from other netters with children as to games on cd rom with some educational value. Some old disk based favourites are SIMCITY and CARMEN SAN DIEGO?
