OK, he's in 4th grade, and loves learning software. Not the boring sort with drills and exercises, but the kinds with adventures and games. He's already got the following, and I can't find any new software that he doesn't have. Any suggestions? What sort of computer games to kids his age play anyways?
What he has :
ClueFinders (all)
Carmen Sandiego (all)
Freddi Fish (all)
Pajama Sam (all)
Putt Putt (all)
Spy Fox (all)
Zoombinis (all)
Kid Pix
Island of Dr. Brain
Castle of Dr. Brain
I Spy series
Jumpstart

Thanks :)
I don't think he has the higher grade Jumpstarts, I'll look into buying them. Anyone else?

You should also try to find Zoo Tycoon. It's a blast. They have to set up a Zoo, manage the animals, make exhibits, etc. They earn money by how many visitors their zoo attracts, if they can raise endangered animals, etc. It's a game, but it teaches them a lot of management, animals, building, etc. It's very addictive, and right at his grade level.

Does he have all the Jumpstart games or just a few? The rest above his grade level may help, and the JumpStart Typing program is fun for kids.
