Preschool Playtime CD-ROM Volume 1

Age 3 - 7

Preschool Playtime Volume 1 teaches the young child (toddler, nursery school, kindergarten) basic manners and behaviors such as greetings, interrupting, listening, waiting and apologizing through real-life social situations like a day at the park, in preschool or going to a play date. Just by regular use of this fun software tool, children aged 3-7 can rapidly improve a full spectrum of friendship skills and play skills, including taking turns, sharing, requesting, cooperating and following directions.

Unlike passive videos, this software allows your preschooler to visually see the social interactions re-enacted by children and then choose what should be said or done next. In this fun, familiar, but safe environment, preschoolers can become increasingly aware of social expectations and more successfully interact with their peers.

This CD-ROM is designed to produce quick results for children who need help in the following social and behavioral areas:

• Taking turns
• Play skills
• Sharing
• Greetings
• Waiting
• Listening
• Following directions
• Interrupting
• Asking
• Manners

This program includes 5 complexity levels and numerous videos to target a broad range of abilities. All levels include a fun and motivating social game of Duck, Duck Goose, Ring Around the Rosie, and Hide and Seek which is incorporated as the preschooler plays the computer program. This program targets children with a cognitive age of 3 - 7 years and includes an easy-to-use lesson plan to customize the video sequences shown for each student.

Preschool Playtime automatically track each student's responses and provide a printout of their daily and long-term results, making social skills more objective.
