Build vocabulary, improve pronunciation, develop writing skills, have fun. Created by a team of teachers, artists, programmers and parents who know as much about kids as they do about learning, this interactive CD educates while it entertains. Which means children don't just turn the pages of an electronic book. They turn pictures into animations, words into songs, questions into answers. And that makes all the difference. You see, children who learn by doing, do better in school. With its varied levels of interactivity, it captivates, excites, and best of all, involves your child. So help your child develop important new skills while discovering how a little girl's peaceful picnic is disrupted by a parade of charming animals. A boy or girl reading partner teaches the meaning and pronunciation of words in three languages - and allows pre readers to learn along. When they record, play back and sing along with 8 different instruments, children have fun - and explore musical concepts and sounds. To sharpen creative skills, children can write a new story using the program's illustrations - then print and color them later.
