Widgets GameThe Widgets game at iKnowthat.com is a
fun, interactive construction set with animated pieces! It creates an engaging
environment for rich, exploratory play. With this game, kids learn
through experimentation and discovery. They build their own animated
virtual "machines" using pieces called widgets. For example,
they could design a contraption with a frog kicking balls into a target.
Or, build a perpetual motion machine with balls moving through a tubular
maze. There are an endless number of contraptions to be made! This game also includes a set of
puzzles consisting of partially built contraptions. These puzzles can
help kids learn how different widgets work. And by solving selected
puzzles, children can add "bonus" widgets to their
collections. Kids can develop important problem solving and critical thinking skills with the game. And they can be creative and use their imaginations. |
