looney tunes phonics

My 30 month old daughter really enjoys doing learning games on her PC.  She is great at most of them, although, she loses interest in them very quickly these days.  I guess she is like most children her age – has a short attention span.   Anyway, I got very excited when I found out about Looney Tunes ClickN READ Phonics – my friend told me about it – she tried a free lesson online with her autistic son and bought the programme immediately afterwards because he liked it so much.   After hearing this, I became curious and I wanted to discover more, so I sampled a free lesson with my daughter.  The main reason for doing this is because I wanted my precious Lilly to trial out something a bit different to the normal activities she had already been doing.

heartsurgery

It must be quite a difficult feat to accomplish to produce a surgery-based flash game that is fun to play and at the same time loyal enough to the actual details of the procedures that it claims to simulate. Surgery isn’t exactly like flying or driving games where a relatively large number of people have had experience with one or the other; surgical procedures are complex, intricate, and require many years of training before they can be known and performed to any degree of competency.

Heart Surgery that is the most popular and the most entertaining game of the series.
