looking for Logical Journey of the Zoombinis alternative

by Beth in CA

Sep 15, 2012

I have a really high 2nd grader, and want to enrich her math skills without giving her the 3rd grade curriculum. My own kids loved the Logical Journey of the Zoombinis, but the CDs I can buy won't run on the current operating systems for Mac. I'm looking for an similar game, probably an online game. Any ideas would be very welcome.

Kris/2 Is there anything in your curriculum on 2 step problems? I would start with the curriculum you already have. But since you have to plan one, it doesn't sound like you have curriculum?
