Bob the Builder™ to Help Boost Pre-Schoolers' Computer Skills
Bob the Builder™ to help boost pre-schoolers’ computer skills Submitted by: Peekaboo Communications Monday, 17 September 2007 ClickandPlay.com helps prepare children for IT-rich schooling environment; Combines fun, learning and computer literacy in a safe environment 17 September 2007 – Bob the Builder™ and many other popular children’s characters will be featured on a new website for pre-schoolers to encourage computer literacy in children before they start school. The new educational resource has launched as children settle into another academic year in what is an increasingly IT-centric schooling environment. The site, www.clickandplay.com, provides a safe way to introduce children to computers, enabling basic computer skills - like how to use a mouse and send an email - in a fun, educational way. The subscription-based site features the popular pre-school characters from leading children’s entertainment producer and rights owner HIT Entertainmnet, including Fireman Sam™, Angelina Ballerina™ and Barney & Friends™, with Thomas & Friends™ and Bob the Builder™ due to launch in early December 2007. Unlike other children’s websites, ClickandPlay uses a ‘walled garden’ approach making it entirely safe as children can’t get onto less suitable sites or be exposed to other dangers of the internet. The games, stories and tools let children learn numbers, letters, shapes and colours, while basic history and geography elements encourage awareness of the world around them. According to British Education Communication and Technology Agency (BECTA), the UK is ranked fourth in Europe for the highest number of internet connected computers in schools. “This IT-rich educational environment and the vital role computers play in the learning process and curriculum, means that getting basic computer skills at a young age is more important than ever,” says Alastair Gregory, managing director of ClickandPlay.
