Description from the packaging.

Build vocabulary, improve pronunciation, develop writing skills, have fun! In English, French and Spanish. Created by a team of teachers, artists, programmers and parents who know as much about kids as they do about learning, the Sitting on The Farm interactive CD from Sanctuary Woods educates while it entertains. Which means children don't just turn the pages of an electronic book. They turn pictures into animations, words into songs, questions into answers. And that makes all the difference. You see, children who learn by doing, do better in school. With its varied levels of interactivity, Sitting On The Farm captivates, excites, and best of all, involves your child. So help your child develop important new skills while discovering how a little girl's peaceful picnic is disrupted by a parade of charming animals. A boy or girl reading partner teaches the meaning and pronunciation of words in three languages - and allows pre readers to learn along. When they record, play back and sing along with 8 different instruments, children have fun - and explore musical concepts and sounds. To sharpen creative skills, children can write a new story using the program's illustrations - then print and color them later. Educational Summary: Reading - Increase word recognition and improve reading comprehension; Vocabulary - Discover 700 nouns, verbs and adjectives in a visual context; Language - Develop word and phrase recognition and pronunciation in English, French and Spanish; Music - Learn basic musical notation and recognize eight instruments; Creative Writing - Write stories to accompany pictures; Science - Identify 24 animals and their 6 habitats; Computer Skills - Practice keyboarding skills.
