MyABCD
-
Version
2.8
MyABCD is an animated, educational, children's program
which includes the alphabet, numbers up to twenty,
twelve simple games and ten musical instruments. It
contains original music, sound effects and animation
which children will learn from and enjoy. Each letter
is displayed in upper-case and lower-case, linked with
a word, and used in a sentence. Children can cycle
through the numbers sequentially or randomly. There is
lively music and animation to entertain children as
they learn numbers and counting and develop computer
mouse skills. In the Games room children can play a
balloon game, snap or help a mouse through a maze.
They can complete a jigsaw, do number drawings, place
shapes in slots, let bees out of a hive or catch
bugs. The games require only mouse over skills,
making them an entertaining learning experience for
children who have not yet developed clicking skills.
In the music room children are introduced to drums,
xylophone, brass and string instruments. The
instructions and help files for the program are
available in English, French, German, Italian,
Portugese and Spanish and you can change between these
languages with one click. The graphics and sound
remain in English. The shareware download of MyABCD
has only one limitation. It times out after five
minutes, reverting to the registration screen. It
then can be re-started, but each time it is run the
playing time is reduced by 10 seconds. Version 2.8
includes a volume control for background music
