Story Cove folktales come from a variety of cultures and places. They share timeless values and simple, universal lessons.
The Story Cove format enables children, families and teachers to explore these stories in a variety of ways. As a result, each child is able to develop a more personal understanding of a story while learning about the world.
Children will enjoy watching the Movies and exploring the activities and games that are linked to that story.
Activities are designed for one-on-one, personal play with interactive puzzles, music fun and hidden pictures.
Lesson Plans extend the story elements to explore the original story with projects and activities that require interaction with adults or other members of the family away from the PC.
