Broderbund Description:
One can never be too educated. Strike that; one can never be too intelligent. The unfortunate thing is that it is all too possible to be the former without being the latter. Learning is more than classrooms and rote memorization. Many educators recognize and address this fact. Many more do not. So where do you turn if your children aren’t getting everything that they need from school? This is a rhetorical question, perhaps, but still a legitimate one. There are many answers, though few are as satisfying as the one to be found at Broderbund.com. Broderbund is one of the world’s leading purveyors of educational books and software. They offer some other wonderful products as well, such as legal software, reference materials, and photo/music/video-related items, items directed at educators and small businesses. Still, the focus here is on the children. The collection of educational software alone is worth the trip. There are all sorts of games and other educational programs available here from some of the most renowned companies in the business. Names such as Edmark and Riverdeep are prominent. There are even some classics thrown into the mix; those of you hovering in the neighborhood of thirty will remember games such as Oregon Trail and Carmen Sandiego. These classic games have received technological facelifts while maintaining the integrity of the original. Learning really can be fun; the folks at Broderbund not only understand that, they celebrate it. The end result is a company that provides entertaining learning solutions at reasonable prices. Everybody wins, but the kids most of all.
