Description:

If your child quails before letters and the text you mustn’t be upset. For him it is absolutely new, unknown world. Our instruction will teach your child to transform letters and words into merry little fellows, animals to be friends with inhabitants of a very interesting country Merry Calligraphy. Children are a rather creative people, it’s very important to direct their constructive energies to the necessary channel, to feed their imagination and make their brains work. The series of educating programs, to which the disc Merry Calligraphy refers, will help parents develop the gifts of little geniuses. A child finds himself in the Merry Calligraphy Land and makes acquainted with its inhabitants-kind smiling letters. So funny they are! They are flying and jumping on the screen, They are giggling and sneezing...The nearer a child gets to know the letters and the secrets of calligraphy the more saturated is the life in this wonderful land. Watering machines are running, hedgehogs are rolling, yard-keepers are scraping with their brooms, mothers are driving prams with babies, the birds are twittering. And all these are alive creatures-the letters! And everything a child sees around is taking place in the Land of Letters. The program will teach your child to use any letters and objects for his fantasies. It will help to understand HOW he can play with the letters. The reward will be the expressive images. This idea is put in the program Merry Calligraphy. There are five lessons. Each of them lasts not more than 2,5 minutes. A lesson is a short cartoon story with commentaries of two characters: a Child and a funny Creature-Story-teller. After each lesson a child is invited to do some tasks, supplementing and enhancing the material learnt. The tasks are interactive. Rather complex and interesting. The tasks are not restrained by the computer, some of them are to be done in the album with pencils and paints.
The Interface of the program is very simple and intuitively understood your child can study independently without help of adults, he can return to any portion of the material according to his choice.
