Benny and Lenny: English for children PC

This is a new educational programme, thanks to which your child will acquire new difficult words and expressions quickly and easily. It has been created in co-operation with a group of competent and experienced teachers who teach English to children everyday. The prepared set of games and tasks is linked by a story, which makes the acquisition of knowledge much more pleasant for the child .

The programme is intended for children over five years of age. However, even the youngest users will be able to play almost all of the games with parental guidance. This is possible thanks to big and legible elements. None of the games requires from the child either manual or reading skills as learning involves listening, understanding and repeating new words and expressions. The educational language material has been divided into parts with increasing level of difficulty. Successive boards will be available with the progress of work on Titi´s rocket. The vocabulary relates to a child´s closest surroundings, the user acquires names of people, things and colours. It is the vocabulary which makes a solid base for further learning.

The programme introduces the child into the world of adventures of a nice space creature, who has lost parts of his vehicle. In order to help Titi return home, the player has to perform several tasks. Those are easy but require the acquisition of parts of vocabulary. This is where Bolek and Lolek come with help. The elder of the boys is the interpreter - his help will be priceless due to the fact that all the other characters communicate only in English. The younger of the brothers provides hints during the whole game.

However, apart from the educational values, the programme offers, most of all, good entertainment for the youngest. Games such as creating a pizza, designing a dream room, constructing a monster, designing a building, preparing animals for a picture, painting a city, colouring pictures, finding details, a journey by a subway await for the children.

It is possible to consult a picture dictionary divided into 15 subject categories at each point of the game. At the beginning all words are in black and white, however, upon the learning of following words, the labels and words will become coloured.

In the dictionary you can also find a link to an easy but exciting memory game The master of the dictionary - here the knowledge of vocabulary, which the child has already acquired in the programme, is evaluated.
