As a child learns, their garden grows. Twenty different plants can be added. Kids can print out and color their garden. Mindscape does an excellent job of engaging children in math-based activities that occur in environments consistent with those of characters in Beatrix Potter books. The theme is further carried out by use of British narrators for on-screen help.
Whimsical music adds to the charm.
Children at the higher end of the scale may find the activities a bit slow, but early learners should be captivated by this delightful title. Beautiful music, soft nostalgic watercolors and a sweeping aerial view of the English countryside set the stage for a charming reading, exploration and gaming adventure with Peter Rabbit, his cousin, Benjamin and all his siblings. Two full-length stories are presented. In the first, Peter Rabbit wanders into Mr. McGregor's garden against his mother's orders. Chased by the gardener, Peter panics.
