Roxie's ABC Fish V4.00 offers an enjoyable 3D animated game environment in which children easily learn their ABCs and numbers. In Roxie's ABC Fish, Roxie, a friendly, animated, talking cat, plays "Go Fish" with a child, but, instead of asking for a number, Roxie asks for an upper or lower case letter, or for a number from 0 to 100. Roxie gently guides the child in selecting the correct word card. When a "Go Fish" game is completed, Roxie then sets up a fun music-composing game with singing 'Grumps'. This game was designed to teach preliminary music concepts while the child is having fun exploring the animted musical environment The child picks up a musical note by clicking once on the whole, half or quarter note at the bottom of the screen and moves it to a position on the staff, then clicks once more to place that note on the staff. After placing many notes on the staff the child clicks the "Play" button to hear their brand new song. To try something different with the same newly created song, they can then switch to a different "instrument" for a completely different sound. Then it's back to another round of "Go Fish" with Roxie.
