The main activity is a delightful hide-and-seek game encouraging children, accompanied by a cat, to explore a house and garden to find where Mouse is hiding. Each room has different hiding places that animate when clicked. The cursor changes from white to blue over each hiding place and accompanying speech helps children identify objects and introduces prepositions. The activity is timed and Mouse waves from his hiding place when found.
The other five activities are accessed from a toy box and include counting, matching, word and memory games and a jigsaw activity. Each activity has a choice of levels and would suit children from four to five years. The jigsaw activity requires quite precise drag and drop mouse skills.
