With a click of the mouse, you can build a town complete with a school, firehouse, hospital, grocery store and people. Neat Things invites kids to chase the Community Scrambler. The chase is to unscramble words like stop, mail, airport or police station. Each scrambled word is accompanied with an animated picture and sound effects. The roar of an airplane, the screeching of a car coming to a stop and a letter being dropped into a mailbox are just a small sample of the sights and sound kids will unscramble in this fast, active and entertaining venue.
Everyday kids are either in a car or a bus traveling to school and back.
Every few months, kids can travel to a different place in their community. Hop on board a bus and take a quick picture tour or animated tour with sound and motion. For example, HUD's animated Library tour starts with a visit to the local library. First stop is the Information Desk followed by visits to several floors. You can ride the elevator to periodicals, reference or fiction books section.
