Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review

Children aged 4-7 years will learn how plants grow, why the sky changes colour and about the different seasons in Adiboo the Forgotten Land. Players are introduced to a strange creature in the Forgotten Land called Pepper and you and Adiboo are asked to find a series of presents for him.

On the search for presents, children are taught in an entertaining way about nature and science. At one stage, you encounter Mrs Ant who says she can't get any nectar unless a puddle of water is removed. To remove it, you click on a couple of balls which will either cause the water to evaporate or turn the water back into liquid again. In another test, you have to try to catch a cheerful jack-in-a box. The idea is to get youngsters to understand the difference between day and night. The scene changes and you have to click on the jack-in-a-box in the darkness. Different levels can be set for all of the games.

Overall this is a creative early learning support title and it has moments of humour too. In one section, children are taught how to identify the differences in the seasons. Scarecrows wear fashionable shades when it gets too hot in the summer and sticks fall on unsuspecting animals during the autumn. In one especially creative section you put on a shadow show after receiving instructions from a friendly talking book and you can adjust the spotlight and watch his shadow move.

Children will find these well-illustrated games a refreshing contrast to standard textbook teachings about nature and science. This title encourages learning while providing some fun at the same time. --Justin Hunt

Manufacturer's Description

Adiboo introduces children to the wonderful world of science and nature. By completing a series of mini-missions, children help Adiboo to solve puzzles, discover secrets, meet friends and have fun as they travel through the magical interactive environment. If children manage to complete all the missions, a unique Booster Code is unlocked for an extra special surprise.

Adiboo is trying to track down the Forgotten Land, an island that simply floated away! There is one inhabitant of Adiboo’s Land that can help to bring back the island but first Adiboo has to bring him some goodies. Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to help Adiboo find the hidden goodies by solving a fun series of science and nature puzzles.
