JumpStart Kindergarten (known as Jump Ahead Starting School in the UK) is an educational video game developed by Fanfare Software and released by Knowledge Adventure on the MS-DOS platform in 1994 (v1.0).
It was the first product released in the JumpStart series and, as its name suggests, it is intended to teach kindergarten students.
According to the Knowledge Adventure founder Bill Gross, it is the first educational software program that covers the entire kindergarten curriculum.
The game is hosted by the teacher, an anthropomorphic gray bunny named Mr. Hopsalot.
During computer learning, the game teaches children basic pre-reading, vocabulary and math, plus songs five for entertainment.
