Product Details

Inspired by the Reggio Emilia approach to early learning, Ani's Rocket Ride strengthens the multiple languages of children. Young players help Ani, a friendly alien, learn all about school as they explore natural environments, uncover hidden objects and examine them in a preschool classroom. Three science centers, an art center, a drama center and two "pretend" Internet centers stimulate creative exploration. A "Help for Grown-Ups" button provides guidance for adults, and a built-in e-mail connection lets children send their artwork home. Bilingual (English/Spanish).
