Bob the Builder Can Doo Zoo is a learning experience your little one will be begging to play again and again.  This educational software is presented by Brighter Minds Media and is packed full of skills your preschooler will benefit from.  Not only will your child increase their dexterity and coordination by utilizing the mouse to complete the games and tasks they will also build foundational skills for learning shapes, colors and patterns.

The game also has a book mode where Bob will tell your child a story while integrating different games and video clips from the actual show.  While the book mode was very exciting to my boys who enjoyed following the story of the zoo and compenents needed as Bob builds special homes for the animals my only disapointment was that the actual words for the story were not there for the child to follow along.  Even though younger toddlers may not be able to read all of the words having them there would be of great benefit.  While younger children will definitely enjoy the different sorting, color, and shape related games each skill set comes in multiple difficulties so older children can also practice and learn as well.

For a great way to introduce your child to computer learning try Bob the Builder Can Doo Zoo.  The integration of the show’s characters with animals and tasks will appeal to both boys and girls as they prepare for preschool and kindergarten in an interactive entertaining game.  Download a trial version of the game from Beanstalk Media to try it for free.
