Description:

AlphaBoat is an entertaining game which teaches children the Alphabet. In one activity the child is asked to find a "Big" or Little" letter. By choosing the correct letter the child moves a sail boat from one tropical island to the next.

In a second activity the child clicks on a camera and displays a picture of a common object such as a hat. The program then asks "What letter does the word HAT start with?" The target word is pronounced very carefully so that the sound of the starting letter can be clearly heard. Correct answers move the boat forward.

Both activities contain ways to get help finding the correct letter or to find the correct letter by trial and error.When you send in your 16.00 shareware fee you will be sent by standard mail or by e-mail, and expanded version of AlphaBoat which contains an additonal PHONICS activity. Children will learn the basic vowel sounds while flying a saucer from one planet to another.
