Touch Funfair - PC-Mac-Networkable

Note: Review only, product no longer for sale.

Go to the fair anytime, with this enjoyable early program.

The Touch Games series is designed for students using a mouse or touch screen for the first time. Those with visual or learning impairments will be pleased with the program's simplicity. Non-readers and readers alike can enjoy the games and animated rewards. At the easier level, children touch an object on the screen and are rewarded with noise and animation. Color and number matching, as well as activities testing short-term memory skills, are great for more advanced users. Ideal for use by individuals, small groups, or in a free play setting. Touch Fun Fair develops cause and effect, visual discrimination/matching and mouse skills. It incorporates activities in the Touch Games program, this time based on the fun fair theme. Activities include: Ghost Train, Coconut Shy, Darts, Lucky Dip, Ferris Wheel, and Bumper Cars. Touch screen and switch accessible.

Occupational Therapy: The Fist Brush

It is a must-have basic for children with mild to fairly serious fine motor involvement who primarily use a whole hand grasp. Try matching the brush handle colours to the colours of paint being used to practice colour matching. The right tools make creative play available to all kids.
