Soft-Pak math software package

What is the Softbasics Soft-Pak?

The Soft-Pak consists of 6 programs (4 math, 1 language arts, 1 list maker). These are low-graphics, high content, on-task software programs that offer on-screen and printable activities, complete with printable session results for recordkeeping. The Soft-Pak programs are for Windows only, and suit best ages 6-13. We're sorry, but there is no version for Mac.

Over 10,000 homeschooling families are using the Soft-Pak (list price $24.95 plus s&h) with excellent feedback on their usefulness.
