Confidence and Skills for Success in School

A fun, friendly place where kindergartners build confidence. Your child has many things to learn in the coming years. The greatest gift you can give a kindergartner is the confidence to embrace and enjoy these challenges. That's what Millie and Bailey do. With a wide variety of carefully-structured activities, these steadfast companions foster your child's ability to solve problems independently. The resulting attitude of "I Can" will support your child through kindergarten - and far beyond.

Add and Subtract Play What's My Number by placing the same number of objects on your stage as Dorothy has on hers. How many is that? You'll have to count, add and subtract to find out.

See and Hear Patterns Create, recognize and complete patterns with Bing and Boing, a pair of bouncing pals. As they hop on a picture, it makes a wacky sound. Record your own sounds for even more fun.

Learn Problem Solving Decorate cookies with up to 20 jelly beans in the Cookie Factory - and discover the sequence of events required to make a tasty treat for Harley, the horse.

Make Three-Letter Words Sound out words at the Three-Letter Carnival. Group animals and objects by names that rhyme, or group them by names that begin with the same letter.

Master Simple Prepositions Where's Edmo? It's up to you. Direct the action and send Edmo & Houdini over, under, in, out, off and on the doghouse.

Explore Adjectives Select words to describe My Friend's hair, eyes, nose, mouth, arms and feet. You'll learn common adjectives and build descriptive phrases as you watch your friend's appearance change.

Sequence Events Learn about beginnings, middles and endings and explore how things change over time by sequencing frames of film in Make-a-Movie.

Experiment with Weather Manipulate temperature, wind and precipitation with the Weather Machine. In the process, you'll discover how different variables affect the environment.

Plan and Construct Clocks tick, wheels spin and robots spring to life as you create machines and toys - from blueprints or your own designs - in the Workshop.

Understand Ecology Visit Acorn Pond during winter, spring, summer and fall to observe animals and plants through the seasons. You can even read or print out a Field Notebook with interesting facts about your favorite animals.

Equal Parts Fun & Education. With Edmark, learning is always a joy. Whenever children are playing with Millie and Bailey, they'll be having fun and learning new skills.

Two Ways to Learn. Sometimes children learn best by experimenting freely, and sometimes they like to be prompted. We allow for both by letting them choose either mode of play.

Easy to Use. Clear, simple directions let your child play independently and spend time learning - not just learning to use the software.

Builds Confidence. We know all children can succeed and we send them that message. We always help children find answers for themselves - that's the best way to learn.

Supportive Characters. Millie, Bailey and other fun friends encourage and gently guide your child. What's more, they model good manners and speech.

Develops Thinking Skills. We are committed to teaching children how to think critically and solve problems - skills that will help them in all school subjects and in life.

Grows with Your Child. Multiple levels of difficulty are built-in so that as children grow, they'll find new challenges and delights.
