The navigation around the software has been designed to be as simple as possible. Large icons take children directly to and from the games and there is also a nice chunky cursor.
The most engaging game of the four available is Old MacDonald's Farm.
Children can explore the farm environment by getting objects and animals to move and make sounds. Some objects react if the cursor rolls over them, for example the frogs and lily pads in the pond. This is great for early computer-mouse skills. It also encourages children to make up their own sound patterns. Other objects only react when clicked, and these have a short animation and sound effect.
