Took years to remember what the name of this game was. We use to play this at school all the time. It was amazing! The platforming with building of the box cart was what we all tried to do to get the fastest one to get to the next level.
6th grade, on the computer in the back of the classroom is where I first played Gizmos & Gadgets. My two most prominent memories are the excitement of winning a race, and my hatred of the magnet puzzles.
I loved this game. It was one of the few games I was allowed to play when I was young and I think it helped me a lot. It made me like education. I wish my son could play this.

JumpStart 2nd Grade
JumpStart 2nd GradeJumpStart 2nd Grade (known as Jump Ahead Year 2 in the United Kingdom) is a personal computer game released in 1996 by Knowledge Adventure. As its name suggests, it was made to teach second grade students. It was replaced by JumpStart Advanced 2nd Grade in 2002. Like the previous JumpStart products, the game takes place in a school setting, but begins after school hours when a giant anthropomorphic frog named C.J. enters the classroom and frees a firefly named Edison. C.J. and Edison (Newton in the United Kingdom) form a double act of sorts with C.J. being an ardent, self-styled "adventurer" while Edison is the more pragmatic straight man, who frequently makes sardonic comments in response to C.J.'s grandiosity. The duo have appeared in many other JumpStart products, such as JumpStart Advanced 2nd Grade; however, their looks and personalities have both undergone enormous changes throughout the years.
