have you looked at the cbeebies website - there are loads of games on there, jigsaws and observation games etc

My ds used PC Play and Learn - advertised on TV. Not sure from what age though.

Look at Inclusive Technology ( details not to hand,but if you get their number from the website and ring,they'll send you a catalogue.
Ostensibly special needs but no matter-some superb and reasonably priced early skill builing stuff.

You could try anything in the 'Jump Ahead' range. We liked Jump Ahead Phonics

Moondog ,those look great but really expensive

Web Land is great for this age. click through from mumsnet discount page (scroll down 9th from the top) and you get a free trial apparently.

My boys loved it at this age.

Polly28, we tried quite a few different games before trying the Jump Ahead series as recommended earlier by Butterflymum. I actually saw the recommendation on here on a similar thread! DD loves them! I bought my copies off of eBay for only a few £££ each. Amazon is also quite cheap if you use their "buy this new/used from" button

thanks web land link isn't working ,will google it instead.

My ds (3.5) has the Tonka search and rescue ones and he loves them.

DS1 got the childrens version of madagascar for his thrdy birthday and loves it
really appropriate for this age range
will find you a link

not educational in numbers and letters but good for keyboard and mouse skills

and fun
