A to Z in CD

Interactive CDs to help kids learn English

As nursery rhymes get imprinted on a child’s mind, they are a big resource to teach languages. “T-Kid” exploits the language teaching potential of rhymes such as “Little Jack Horner” and “Old Mother Hubbard” in a novel way. In an animated, interactive T-Kid CD (for age group 4 to 7), nursery rhymes with missing words have to be completed by dragging and placing appropriately blocks that contain the necessary words.

Sample this: “Mary had a little ---/ Its fleece was white as ---/ And everywhere that---/ The lamb was---/” is accompanied by the blocks “Sure to go.”, “Snow,”, “Mary Went,” and “Lamb”. Every nursery rhyme has a descriptive picture, but only some have their tunes playing in the background.

The CD costs Rs. 95 . For more details, log on to tkid.in and thinkingcentre.com.
