We were given access to the Premium version for the review. Ladybug (5 years old) used the Premium Spelling to practice her words. I entered the words I wanted her to learn. It was very easy to do. I also looked over the available lists and they seem to be very appropriate for students learning to spell phonetically. Ladybug enjoyed the spelling games (especially the one with the Robot...it is similar to hangman). Ladybug also practiced her addition facts. The default list of facts was too long for her so having the Premium version was nice as I was able to adjust the number of facts she reviewed at one time. I could also increase/decrease the alloted time she had to complete the facts. I tried to explore the States with Ladybug but she was not interested in it yet. I would recommend it for ages 8 and up.
Unicorn (11 years old) practiced her multiplication facts. She also explored the States and used the Spelling/Vocabulary sections. Unicorn loves spelling and is very good at it. She is no longer required to  study spelling. Having said that, she had a great time using the Spelling program. She was able to find a list that was challenging to her. She also had a great time exploring the States program. I didn't require it of her. She chose to do it on her own and enjoyed it.  
Both girls liked earning "coins" to play the games in the reward section. These games are fun and educational.
In a nutshell:~Recommended for kids KG-99 (the spelling/vocabulary lists can be customized to challenge anyone)~Recommended for those who like using the computer~Recommended for those who are short on time (it is very quick and easy to customize lists)~Recommended by my girls :)~I really like this product. I like that my girls like it and that it is customizable.~One thing I don't like is that there is not a separate parent profile. I have to log in as my student to make changes (this also means that the student can make changes too ~ could be good or bad depending on the student). It also means that I have to wait for an email or watch my student to determine progress.~Click HERE for detailed pricing.
