Games for Young Children

Grids 4 Kids (Pritchett, Glenn; $15) is a set of four games for children 6-10:
Tic-Tac-Toe, a Concentration type game, Simon Says pattern matching, and a
simple code decipher game. High scores are kept for each player. This is a
very attractive, well-done package.

children. Requires VBRUN300 and WIN31.

[TTT_WIN]
Tic-Tac-Toc 1.06 (JP Soft Development Corp.; $0) is a game of tic-tac-toe for

best played by the very young.

Windows Coloring Book 1.0 (Kinderware; $30) allows children to use over 400

and up, and an easy mode can be selected to remove potentially complicated
menu commands. Pictures may be printed in black and white or color. This is an
excellent tool for teaching eye-hand coordination while encouraging individual
artistic expression. Requires Windows 3.0+, VGA, 4 meg RAM, hard drive, and a
mouse.
