Percy Gets Into Shapes

Description

Based around the themes of shape, size and colour, this program provides a number of educational games designed to entertain and excite children’s minds to develop sequencing, comparison and matching skills.

Shapes are explored by matching outlines to pictures of everyday objects, as well as distinguishing between commonly found shapes. Children can practice finding and sorting objects according to size, whilst colour is explored by following Percy the caterpillar’s instructions to colour images correctly.

Screen shots

The main menu screen allows easy access to each of the six games and the teacher's section.

This game encourages the player to look carefully at the picture and drag it to the shape that matches.

Can you help Percy become a shape detective and work out which shape is being described?

A twist on the traditional favourite, the player has to correctly place all of the shapes on the train.

In this game the player must correctly colour in a set of shapes, choosing colours from the pots of paint shown.

Here the player must follow Percy's instructions carefully to click on the correctly sized shape.

In this game the user will be asked to share the shapes between the wizard and the clown based on a given criteria.
