Dr. Seuss ABC CD-ROM
 The magic of Dr.
Seuss's popular books comes to life in this fun-filled

humor,
rhyme and illustration there's never a dull moment.
- A is
for amazing alphabet!
- B is

Unlike
a printed primer, this Living Book creates a responsive environment in
which children make the connection between sounds, symbols and words.
On each
page, a touch of the mouse awakens funny talking characters, zany sound
effects
and an original soundtrack.
Click
on a noun and see its picture.
Click on a verb to see an action.

It's easy for kid to replay a favorite part, skip ahead and learn more
than 600
different words while they play. Only Dr. Seuss and Living Books
could
make the alphabet so unpredictably entertaining. More than 400
alphabetically
inspired surprises hidden within 26 pages show children that learning
words and
letters can be fun and even silly! Izzy and Ichabod guide young
readers through
this action-packed title featuring Seuss's distinctive brand of humor,
rhyme,
and illustration.
Dr. Seuss Kindergarten CD-ROM
 Gerald
has built a new zoo and wants your help collecting some unique,
marvelous and strange animals from around the world, for his new
zoo. You board the "McGrew Zoo Choo Choo Train" that takes
you to 8
different possible destinations where you find such fine finds as a
Barbaloot,
the song writing Zinn-a-Zu bird, and Star-bellied Sneetches, to mention
a few.
You
are presented with a wide range of activities in each area which
when
successfully completed, will allow you to collect one of these fine
creatures. When you go to the Lorax's Forest, you help some
Babaloots
by putting the
correct number of furballs in their wheelbarrows. When you have the
right number
in the first two wheelbarrows, you then pick the right number to answer
the
addition question. (see middle right). And for your efforts you get to
collect
some fine Barballots for the zoo.
At the "Shapes-On Machine (see bottom right) you are called upon to
help
Sylvester McMonkey McBean complete a pattern involving shapes and
colours to
create a proper sequence. For your efforts, you can take to your zoo
some
excellent Star Bellied Sneeches. (This is a lot more fun than
collecting stars).
Of course, when you have collected all the animals, you are rewarded
with seeing
the grand opening of young Gerald Mcgrew's new zoo.
The program has lots of hidden clickables and a variety of play
activities
such as the Musical Band where you can click on individual band members
to hear
a tune or play with the Clock Sculpture to learn about time.
Reward Stickers
Colorful stickers are the perfect reward for a job well done.
Decorate
notebooks, backpacks, and more!
