Description: One of the oldest releases by The Learning Company, Moptown Parade is an edutainment game aimed at teaching basic pattern recognition and logic skills to kids aged 4-7. The goal is simple: choose the traits of Moppet creatures to line up in a queue, obeying the given number of rules. For instance, if the rule says "2," you must choose the traits of the next Moppet so that it differs from the previous Moppet by 2 traits, e.g. a fat, blue Moppet can stand next to a thin, red Moppet. The number of rules, i.e. traits, can be changed from 1 to 4, thus either making the game more or less challenging (although changing the traits to 4, the maximum, will just result in your Moppets being an alternate sequence of two types of Moppets).DESCRIPTION:
Ages 6 to 10

What can you learn by knowing the difference between a Bibbit and a Gribbit? Find out by playing Moptown Parade, a collection of seven learning games for children aged 6 to 10, probably best suited in style to the younger end of the spectrum.
The games progress in difficulty from the easiest "Make My Twin" to "Clubhouse." The skills taught include matching, pattern analysis and problem-solving strategies. Children are invited into a story and asked to get to know the characters. Bibbits have big feet, Gribbits have tails, some are short, some are tall.
When children are given a "What's Different" problem they must not only state which character is different but also what characteristic distinguishes the differing creature. When playing "Parade;' children must figure out the pattern in which the characters appear and insert the next creature according to that pattern. Clear crisp graphics will appeal to children and the lesson-games have been well thought-out.

Postal rates almost doubled Jan. 16, 2016 on the 2 OZ weight. If you order a disk it is $11.99 minimum shipping. However, now the rate is the same for up to 8 OZ. So the shipping cost will be the same even if you order 4 disks. Just wait for an invoice so I can adjust the shipping cost.
