Putt Putt Enters the Race, 2001-04-30
This is a great product that my 4 year old son loves. He really likes cars, especially racing cars. This product has a number of fun and educational activities to do before Putt Putt can enter the race. My son loves the race at the end, but he never rushes through the activities, because he has such a good time doing them as well. He particularly likes having to go to the garden maze and find different fruits and veggies. I'd highly recommend this product.

Putt-Putt Enters the Race, 2000-02-23
Just like all of the other Humongous Entertainment games, and especially Putt-Putt, this game is terrificly entertaining. Putt-Putt, with his dog Pep, goes to enter the Cartown 500. First, however, he'll need some safety and racing gear. Kids learn strategic thinking, mapping, memory, emergency, basic research, and reading skills, manners, and much more in this colorful, fun game with pit stops along the way where kids can play racing pinball, shelf puzzle, maze, digging, and nailing. Hundreds of clickpoints and songs await children as they go through this delightful game that changes its puzzles when you restart! If you like this game, try Putt-Putt Goes to the Moon, Joins the Parade, Saves the Zoo, and/or Travles Through Time.

Inspires Great Creative Thinking Processes, 1999-11-21
My 3 year old son loves Putt Putt! He gets such a great feeling of accomplishment when he does all that he needs to do to get into the race! I like it because the goal is not a competitive one where you have to "WIN" or "LOSE". It's more of a goal of getting the tools he needs to complete a certain job. It keeps him occupied for about an hour, which also gives me great opportunities to do housework,etc. without feeling like I'm robbing him of the chance to do something he enjoys! Also, it allows him to use his own creativity & problem solving skills, because he has to figure out how to get some of the items on the list. The greatest thing, though, is when he gets all the items & then goes to the race, he runs around the house laughing & saying "Number 1" because he's so proud of himeself!

Young children use problem-solving skills in fun format, 1999-11-16
Putt-Putt is invited to participate in a race. He needs to collect four pieces of equipment to be in the race. By keeping his eyes open, earning some extra money, and helping others in cartown, he is able to gather those materials. My 3.5 yr-old son loves this game. The first few times he played the game, my husband and I played it with him, helping him think through some of the challenges and encouraging him to notice details that could help him towards his goals (e.g., collecting pop bottles to recycle towards money for his racing tires). This was especially important since Max can't read yet, so he wouldn't notice clues such as the "free" sign on the batteries in the toy store, or the "help wanted" sign at the grocery. After three or four games played with us, he was able to start playing the game independently. The challenges vary a little from game to game. Sometimes he earns a helmet by helping a cat out of a tree, other times by hammering nails. There is usually an animal to go research in the library (we help with the reading). The game can be saved, which is great because when Max plays by himself he meanders a bit more through cartown and it helps to break the game up over two or three evenings. Putt-putt models polite language and a positive demeanor. There are no bad guys.

great fun!, 1999-11-15
My son is 4 and loves this game. It's easy enough for him to navigate around, yet challenging enough to keep him entertained.
