Computer fun deserves a place on your back-to-school shopping list this year, as characters such as Curious George and Elmo from "Sesame Street" serve up basic skills in interactive worlds. Here you'll find this year's new entries, listed by company—but they're not the only things that bring a fresh look to keyboard-based learning. Some terrific-looking learning products won't be shipping until October (too late for us to review in this issue). And watch for a few old favorites, such as Riverdeep—The Learning Company classics Reader Rabbit: First Grade and the Zoombinis series, that will have fresh new looks.
