Thomas and Friends CD ROMs

 

2005 Marks the 60th Anniversary of the Thomas & Friends Brand.  Mindscape UK Ltd is pleased to announce the release of four re-published Thomas & Friends CD-ROMs to celebrate this.  With an RRP of £9.99 each and many activities featuring favourite characters on each, The Great Festival Adventure, Thomas Saves the Day, Building the new Line and Trouble on the Tracks, are sure to be a hit with children and parents alike!

Kids and Parents can work together in these four previously successful educational CD-ROMs.  They encourage learning and development in 4-6 year olds through stories and interactive activities, with the all-time favourite characters and locations from the Thomas & Friends series.  These fun packages will amuse and challenge first time PC users, as they learn mouse control, hand to eye coordination as well as other PC skills (clicking, moving, cause-and-effect of onscreen activities).  Rich 3-D animated graphics and printable certificates of completion through varying difficulty levels are designed to keep little Thomas fans interested.

It’s classic pre-school play, perfect for young Thomas fans!  Kids will love helping Thomas and his friends get ready for the big festival on the Island of Sodor in The Great Festival Adventure, then helping Thomas, James, Edward or Percy lay down new tracks to keep things running smoothly in Building the New LineTrouble on the Tracks contains activities, with three levels, and clickable surprises interspersed throughout each activity.  There’s lots to see, and plenty to do, at every stop in Thomas Saves the Day, including colour matching, shape sorting and counting.

Features:

  • Rich 3-D Graphics and animations
  • Favourite characters and locations
  • Certificates of completion for each activity
  • Specially created video footage featuring Thomas and his friends

 All four CD-ROMs are now available to purchase from www.mindscape.co.uk. Don’t forget to look out for our other great childrens’ CD-ROMs, including our Garfield, Disney and Noddy titles.  And keep a watch for two brand new Thomas & Friends titles due out around Christmas!
