Product Features
Add and Subtract
Play What's My Number by
placing the same number of objects on your stage as Dorothy has on
hers. How many is that? You'll have to count, add and subtract to find
out!
See and Hear Patterns
Create, recognize and complete
patterns with Bing and Boing, a pair of bouncing pals. As they
hop
on a picture, it makes a wacky sound. Record your own sounds for even
more
fun!
Master Simple Prepositions
Where's Edmo? It's up to you!
Direct the action and send Edmo & Houdini over, under, in,
out, off and on the doghouse.
Explore Adjectives
Select words to describe My
Friend's hair, eyes, nose, mouth, arms and feet. You'll learn
common adjectives and build descriptive phrases as you watch your
friend's appearance change.
Sequence Events
Learn about beginnings, middles and
endings and explore how things change over time by sequencing frames of
film in Make-a-Movie.
Learn Problem Solving
Decorate cookies with up to 20
jellybeans in the Cookie Factory--and discover the sequence of
events
required to make a tasty treat for Harley, the horse.
Make Three-Letter Words
Sound out words at the Three-Letter
Carnival! Group animals and objects by
names that rhyme, or group them by names that begin with the same
letter.
Experiment with Weather
Manipulate temperature, wind and
precipitation with the Weather Machine. In the process, you'll
discover how different variables affect the environment.
Plan and Construct
Clocks tick, wheels spin and
robots spring to life as you create machines and toys -- from
blueprints or your owns designs -- in the Workshop.
Understand Ecology
Visit Acorn Pond during
winter, spring, summer and fall to observe animals and plants through
the
seasons. You can even read or print out a Field Notebook with
interesting facts about your favorite animals.
