Bible ABC2 - HELP.TXT

INTRODUCTION

Thank you for using the Bible ABC2 program.
This program is part of the Super Bible Kids 
Series software.  The Bible ABC2 program 
teaches children the alphabet through three 
groups of pictures: Bible objects and characters, 
animals, and common objects.  The child will
match the letter that associates with the 
pictures.  As with other Kidvision Software 
programs, the Bible ABC2 program is intended 
to educate young children about the Bible 
through colorful pictures and music.  Kids are 
able to learn the Bible while having fun  
learning to use the computer, with the mouse 
and keyboard to play the games. The selected 
songs are popular Bible songs which are fun 
and easy to learn.

program that will install the Bible ABC2 game

INSTRUCTIONS

The Bible ABC2 program is a very user-friendly
program which requires minimal computer knowledge 
to play.  However, children under the age 
of 3 may need to be guided by an adult.


	To start the program

At the Windows Program Manager screen, double-click
the Bible ABC2 icon in the Super Bible Kids group.
An introduction screen will come up to display 
several messages and music will be played in the
background.  The main program screen will then be 
displayed.



	To start the game

Using the mouse or keyboard, select a letter 
from the alphabet.  The selected letter will be 
displayed in the middle of the screen.  A realistic 
voice will say the letter, followed by five pictures.  
The pictures may all be different or all the same.  
After the pictures have been displayed, the child
will then select the picture that matches the letter
by using the mouse or keyboard.  If a correct
match is made, a realistic voice will say "yes" 
followed by a note of congratulations.  If the 
selection is wrong, a trumpet sound will play, 
followed by a note to ask the child to try again.


	To select another letter

Using the mouse or keyboard, the child simply 
select another letter from the alphabet.  The 
picture group will be different for each time 
a letter button is pressed, even if the same 
letter button is selected again.



	To see information about the program

Click the "?" - help button using the mouse or 
press <ALT> <H> using the keyboard.  The screen 
will display the help file about the program.  
You can print this help file using the Windows
Notepad, Write or other compatible programs.


	To stop the music

Using the mouse, click the "Stop Music" button.  You 
can also hit the "Enter" or "Space Bar" in the keyboard
to stop the music. 


	To exit the program

Just click the "Exit" button (Stop sign).  The 
program will return you to the Program Manager.


	To go play other Super Bible Kids games

The "Main Menu" button allows you to access other 
Super Bible Kids games.  Click this button and the 
Super Bible Kids main menu will display.  If you do 
not have other games installed, clicking the 
uninstalled game buttons will display a message 
indicating that you have not installed those games.  
(For your information, we are planning more than eight 
games in the Super Bible Kids series.)
