The Magic School Bus is the basis of a multimedia project for children headed by Scholastic. The Magic School Bus characters and stories appear in television shows, books, board games, and CD-ROM computer games, always with a lesson to be learned and an emphasis on fun and understanding.<br><br>In the show and games, magic is used to demonstrate science and technology. Often, schoolmates Arnold, Phoebe, Carlos, Mikey, Wanda, and the other kids in Ms. Frizzle's class are shrunk or transformed, to help them see everyday science from a whole new perspective. Of course, having a Magic School Bus to take the class to all sorts of fantastic places helps to keep the learning fresh and interesting.<br><br>In this episode, the class explores the many layers of life in the rainforest. Ms. Frizzle and the kids hop on The Magic School Bus for a trip to Costa Rica. The class will want to see examples of many different types of rainforest life so players will need to keep their eyes peeled as they explore the forest canopy, a treetop gap, and the rivers and undergrowth on the forest floor. 12 different entertaining activities keep the learning rolling and the game features 20 multimedia reports to help reinforce important concepts.Product Key Features
