Scool Not School

Charming and slightly weird progette featuring a mis-shapen purple alien, Scool Not School is a collection of six sections which mix education and fun. There's a simple paint package, an address book in which you can store birthdays and addresses, a simple typing thing, spelling and maths games and an ST version of Fuzzy Felt. Remember that? Little pieces of felt cut out in various shapes that you stick to a background to make interesting pictures, then lose on the carpet and up the vacuum cleaner.

Each section is colourful and fairly slick and the emphasis on being entertaining rather than actually educational. The spelling and maths sections are pitched towards the very young, while some of the other sections are likely to take a bit more savvy. A jolly good outing.
