Children’s Software

Thanks to the vast number of Macs in schools, a huge percentage of educational software programs are available in both Mac and Windows versions—often on the same CD. That includes most programs from The Learning Company (including the Arthur, Carmen Sandiego, Little Bear, and Reader Rabbit series), Broderbund (Mavis Beacon, The Print Shop, and so on), Humongous Entertainment (series like Putt-Putt and Freddi Fish), and other major educational publishers.
