There's plenty of fun, action, and learning to be had with Mike and Sully on this InnoTab software cartridge. Games and activities that develop logic, observational skills, reading, memory, addition, counting, beginning letters, and much more are at your fingertips when you pop the cartridge into any InnoTab System. There are four over-arching categories on the main menu - Free Play, Adventure, E-Book, and Photo Fun (for systems with a camera). In Free Play, kids follow Mike's calendar and train in 9 different games, each of which is cleverly designed to promote fun and learning. Scary Faces, for example, lets kids view two nearly identical monster photos and tap the screen wherever differences between the two images occur, scoring points as they go. The Adventure category includes Scare Games events that test reflexes and improve motor skills. Or select E-Book, where kids can choose to read the entire Monsters University e-book, select individual pages, or visit the Story Dictionary to explore the meaning of specific words. A learning extravaganza!
