The first point of entree is the Attic. When you first enter the attic, Flash, the firefly, explains how everything works. Each screen has an area in which your child will explore the items on the page. Depending upon what the hot spot is, the item your child clicks on may do some action on the screen, or jump them to another screen, such as the Rain Forest, or bring up the spelling pop-up screen in which the word of that item and a small picture of that item is displayed. When the spelling screen comes up, Flash will speak the word and then spell it out.
Every screen has a control bar in the bottom right.
The control bar's feature are explained by Flash when you first enter the Attic, but it is basically a navigation bar. Our Playground is the theme of the second volume in the series. In this volume you can join Flash the Firefly on a fantastic trip through our solar system. Again access to the initial planets is through the Attic located on Planet Earth. Clicking on items in the attic will either take you to a different planet, provide you with an interesting fact, or just do something silly.
