This CD was designed for use with Windows 95 or Windows 98I installed it on my computer with Windows Vista (after changing the compatibility mode to Windows 98/ME and setting color to 16 bit) and most of the activities worked but it would be best if a person would have a computer with either Windows 95 or Windows 98

Knowledge Adventure is a company dedicated to creating multimedia products that will help ensure your child鈥檚 educational success and life-long love of learning.  Children love to learn, to explore, to invent, to master skills, and to know things.  We encourage that natural love of learning by combining educational innovations with the latest computer technology.  We build fun and excitement into all our products so that your child will enjoy using them day after day, week after week.



InTeletubbies 2: Favorite Gameschildren enter in the magical world of the Teletubbies to play five fun and engaging activities.  They can even play along with the children featured in the videos that the Teletubbies receive on their tummies!


Because each activity is aimed at children aged one to four, the program is very simple to use and has been designed to be a safe place for children to play.  Children do not need to use the keyboard, and only simple mouse movements are required.  Also, there are no right or wrong ways to play any of the games.  Instead the emphasis is on exploration - with the
Teletubbies and the child having fun together.


 

Nevertheless, interacting with an adult is an essential part of learning and development.  Therefore, it is recommended that, at least initially, an adult play along with the child.  This can be especially beneficial for younger children or those who are not yet comfortable with computers.

The Main Menu

Once the program has loaded, the familiar
Teletubbies introduction sequence plays.  This culminates in the Main Menu.  Like all parts of Teletubbies 2:Favorite Games, the Main Menu is a fun place to be.  Its main function is to allow the child to choose which game they want to play, but there are other surprises here too.


The Main Menu features five circular icons 鈥�each depicting one of the games the child can choose to play.  These pictures are set on a background of 鈥�lt;font color="#cc0099">Pink Sparkle
鈥�lt;/font>.  The five games are:

                             

Making Tubby Custard

It鈥檚 time for tubby custard and the
Teletubbies are very excited!  The Teletubbies love using the tubby custard machine and in this game children can help the Teletubbies make enough tubby custard for everyone.


The controls from the tubby custard machine are shown along the bottom of the screen.  If the child clicks any of these the Teletubby at the tubby custard machine will do the same and make the machine carry out the corresponding action.  Click the corresponding Teletubby that you'd like to place behind the tubby custard machine.


Because emphasis is on free play, it is possible to squirt tubby custard when there is no bowl present.  This can lead to lots of mess 鈥�which the
Teletubbies think is very funny!  Of course, the child can always get the Noo-noo to clean up the mess if they want to.


Whenever a tubby custard bowl has been filled, the Teletubby currently at the tubby custard machine will take that bowl over to the tubby custard table.  Once four bowls have been made, all of the
Teletubbies run over to the table and eat up all their tubby custard.

 

Hide and Peep

One day in Teletubbyland, three pairs of curtains appeared from far away.  The
Teletubbies were very excited when they saw the curtains and decided to play a hiding game!


This activity starts with all of the
Teletubbies standing in front of the curtains.  When the child clicks a Teletubby, that Teletubby will run away and hide behind one of the curtains.  When three Teletubbies have hidden, it鈥檚 time for the remaining Teletubby to find one of the other three.  The narrator will remind the Teletubby who they are looking for.


The child helps the remaining Teletubby by clicking on the curtains.  When the curtains are clicked, they鈥檒l open to reveal who is hiding there.  Note that if the mouse is moved over a pair of curtains, an audio or visual clue will be given as to who is hiding there.  When the correct Teletub
