This was created by educational game specialists as a series of learning activities for children from 5 to 7 years old. These activities use a range of multimedia tools to enable children to develop basic cognitive skills (observation, seriation, classifying, finding relationships, etc) through play. Plumo the parrot accompanies young users as they explore the world. In Plumo At The Zoo, He invited preschoolers to visit zoo animals who each presented an educational game. (Fun Fact: Plumo is voiced by a male actor in the English version, and a female actor in the French version!) The loveable parrot has returned to help children from 5 to 7 develop cognitive skills appropriate for their age. Through all their activities, the children are guided by Plumo's instructions, encouragement, and advice. A sampling of activities: A flower garden that you must water by connecting the sections of an unusual hose; A clock that you must set to a given time in order to bring a scene to life; A magic blackboard on which you must draw a mystery animal by following the dots, in numerical order or increments of 2, 3 or 5; A beehive, where you reveal the contents of each cell by pairing an animal with the sound it makes; Barn doors on which you complete a symmetrical pattern; A beauty contest for pigs that you arrange according to details of their portraits; A clothesline on which you can hang items on only if their numbers are in increasing order; A bridge that you complete with colored sections following a logical sequence.
