This
updated program for preschoolers features a wonderful little story
line that will capture the attention of both kids and their
parents alike. Children follow the bewildered bear through Hundred
Acre Wood as he informs all of his friends that they need to
prepare for Eeyore's surprise birthday party. Each friend needs
some help in the preparations -- Piglet needs help with his
pictures, and Kanga needs to make alphabet soup for the party, for
example. Children lend a hand, and engage in early-learning
activities to do so. Some of these are a little challenging for a
typical preschooler to master, however. With a little help from
parents or older siblings, kids will learn and develop some
important skills. Both lower- and uppercase letters are featured
in one activity, and sorting skills are required for
another.
An all-new activity introduces
children to some basic foreign language vocabulary. Parents can
choose whether they want this language to be French or
Spanish.
Children who love to get involved
in a story will enjoy the game. Note that the program is probably
best for advanced preschoolers or children just entering
Kindergarten.
