  • Zoombinis – any modern equivalent for kids PC?

    My daughter has just dug out an old disc with Zoombinis on – the animated Maths challenge programme.

    Unfortunately it’s not compatible with our Windows 7 PC.

    Does any one know if a more modern version is available (our discs are 2001) or whether any one else offers a similar sort of fun/educational package?

    Thanks!

    If you want to use the discs – and have tried whatever compatibility modes W7 offers – then set up a virtual machine on your PC (virtualbox is free) and install windows 95/XP (whatever the game needs to work).
