It is appealing as musical features guide students to be apart of various learning skills such as; addition and subtraction, money, time, fractions, decimals, percents, weight, measurement and patterns. Children can manipulate and personalize variables such as; the background and foreground content making their own creation, compiling a full-length animated video that can be saved and display for teachers and family to view.
