She doesn't think of it as an "educational toy," which is good, yet I think she is getting in a lot of good writing practice. It works well (we have it on a Mac) and it has a lot of cool features, like a password-protected journal and a feature that will read back what you have written. You can even add sound effects. I'm glad we got it.
