BBC Multimedia Tweenies Ready To Play (PC)

My 4 year old daughter has to play on this CD nearly every day. I purchased it a couple of years ago, and though she was interested in the Tweenies, she wasn’t terribly struck on playing this game. However, she is now getting much more IT proficient and is quite good with using the mouse, and can actually play this game quite independently. There is also a spin-off CD available from all good retailers, which features a dance mat and microphone, but as with all sequels, this doesn’t quite match up to the original. Upon installing and starting the game, the Tweenies theme music and introductory sequence plays (like on the television programme) , then ...  Read the complete review

Yes, now you can play with Bella, Milo, Fizz and Jake on your computer - and so can your kids! This is a great fun CD-Rom for the littlies, around 3 to 6 year olds. I read somewhere that the name "Tweenies" is from "in-beTWEEN", aimed at those kids who are too old for Teletubbies and suchlike, but too young for a lot of the other shows.

It has Messy Time, Story Time, Song Time, Telly Time, News Time and Play Time. There is also a Mail section with Doodles (their enormous but friendly dog), where you ...  Read the complete review

Next you go to the main menu where all the activities are accessed by clicking on the Tweenie clock. There are five buttons on the clock which represent an activity; Messy Time, Telly Time, Story Time, Song ...  Read the complete review

My son was 3 years of age when I bought his first CD-ROM game. I shopped around to see what would be suitable for his age. I knew he loved the Tweenies so I bought “Ready to Play”. The design of the game is based around the television programmes. There are 6 categories to choose from: - messy time, telly time, story time, play time, news time and song time. Once you have decided which area you wish to go to you press the Tweenie Clock. Story Time:- Max reads a story called “Felicity and her felt tip pens” the story is read out from a book which you press the button when you would like the page to turnover. Telly ...  Read the complete review
