CD-ROM «Magic Transformations»

Year of production: 2002

Description:

The aim of this unique author’s program is to teach children to create, that to pass all the steps from an idea to realization: to look and see, to see and create, create something new and unusual. Practically any person at any age can learn to draw, but not everybody is able to create something new. The aim of this original author’s program is to teach to create and realize the ideas. This is the third disc of the series ‘Basic Design for Small Children’. The Disc that induces to create, the most unusual fantasies can be implemented if you only have an idea. An inventor and thinker can open any worlds: The Land of Crystalls and The World of Space Wonders, The Kingdom of the Air Dragon and Shoemaker’s Island, The Society of Mechanisms and Wineshop from an Apple. If your child is interested in what he sees round himself, if he is able to admire surrounding him world then he is capable to create. The most expressive images emerge while using natural forms. This idea is the basic of the program ‘Magic Conversations’. The program lets a person understand HOW he can create. Five brief and capacious lessons. Each of them lasts not more than 2,5 minutes. A lesson is a short cartoon story with commentaries of two characters: The Child and a funny creature-Story-teller. But these are not the only acting persons-the world is full of life: here and there fly birds-ships, the worms build houses from the apple, the town is being made of letters...After each lesson a child is invited to do fascinating tasks, which supplement the material. These tasks are interactive, rather complex and interesting. Tasks are not limited with a computer, some of them are to be done in an album with pencils and paints. The interface of the program is very simple and is understood by intuition-a child can study independently, without adult’s help, can return to any portion of the material on his choice. The program is developed for children from 4 to 10.
