JumpStart Spanish

JumpStart Spanish is a subject-based JumpStart game developed by Funnybone Interactive and released by Knowledge Adventure in 1997. It is intended to teach basic Spanish for ages 3-6.

In the game, the player joins Hopsalot in his clubhouse and plays various activities that teach Spanish.

Level one is "Explore," and level two is "Game."

In the United Kingdom, the game is named Jump Ahead French and was modified to teach French instead of Spanish.
