Younger children can find learning through multimedia software difficult, but
ClueFinders Adventures Years 4&5 CD-ROM wraps its educational material up in an adventure game, the idea being that the educational side of things is hardly noticed at all. To that end, our clue-finding heroes get into all sorts of scrapes during their adventures. In this CD-ROM they--and Socrates the dog--find themselves on an archaeological dig in Egypt. While there they come across an evil archaeologist's plot to unleash chaos on the world. Needless to say, the ClueFinders set out to foil his plans.
ClueFinders Adventures Years 4&5 incorporates challenges which test skills in logical thinking, maths, science, geography and language. There is a document for parents explaining how these skills are addressed in each of the activities, and the effects achieved by switching between the four difficulty levels in each of them.
A bonus CD, the ClueFinders Adventure Kit comes with ClueFinders Adventures Years 4&5. This offers various fun activities such as and adventure logbook with which to record your own escapades. Available for Years 3&4, 4&5, 5&6 and 6&7. --Sandra Vogel
