Featuring the characters from the series, this edutainment application is for children 3 to 6 years old. This is a collection of 5 mini-games and 3 interactive episodes. Each game or episode develops a childs particular problem-solving skill: logical reasoning, anticipation, motor and visual coordination, etc.

Time to Eat, Kids!
Cognitive Flexibility: Children learn to make logical sequences, using the right ingredients to prepare the pies based on their colour, shape and position.
Exclusive: A dashboard to know your childs progress. Each of the game mechanics allow children to develop specific skills that will be used in their current and future learning. To ensure that every child progresses at their own pace, the difficulty curve of each game is adapted according to the ease with which children complete the various game scenes.
In addition to the problem-solving games, 3 interactive webisodes allow children to get involved in the story and solve problems! A purely linear (non-interactive) version is also available.
