This is the activity CD-ROM that accompanied the children?s book of
the same name (written and conceived by Tony Wheeler and Ben Short).
> This CD-ROM accompanies the book entitled 101 Amazing Things To Do
> with Your Computer by Kingfisher. It contains an activity program,
> which has been simply designed using HyperStudio, a multimedia
> authoring program easy enough for children. There are seven main
> activities on the CD-ROM which help children to learn in a dynamic
> way about the useful and creative things that a computer can do:
> Digital Grapher allows them to make simple graphs which turn easily
> into colourful pie charts; Digital Games enables children to design
> their own board games and play them on screen; and Digital Photofit
> lets them create a gallery of fantastic faces that they can develop
> further in a painting package. One of the advantages of using
> HyperStudio is that children can share the activities with other
> children by making a player disc, very useful when they want to send
> each other locked secret codes which they have devised using the
> Digital Codes activity or a multimedia Greetings Card. As well as
> the activity program, there are files that can be opened in any
> standard paint packages, which are really templates for children to
> develop their own ideas. There are templates to help you make paper
> aeroplanes, name cards, mini kites and even playing cards. These can
> be decorated with the 100 clip-art images included with the disc.
