Color Fun 1.0


Introduction
============

	Color fun is an educational game for children of ages 2-8. There are
four "mini" games designed so that kids can learn colors and computers. 
Younger children will have to be helped with the keyboard and the mouse, but
they should enjoy the game as long as their attention span will allow. Older
children should be able to play the game by itself. If they already know the
basic colors, learning to use computers will be the important leason. Note: A 
sound card (or Windows speaker driver) is very important to game play.

Playing the game
================

	The first step is to use the Game-New menu command to select a new 
game. The Game-New dialog-box will pop-up prompting selection of the type of
game and how many times it will be played. There are four variations of Color
Fun: Select the Color, Push the Color, One of three, and Guess the Picture.
	Select the Color - a color's name will be spoken and a square of that 
color will be displayed. To answer correctly, the name of the correct color 
must be clicked on by the mouse cursor.
	Push the color - a color's name will be spoken and the color's name
will be displayed in small type. To answer correctly, the correct bar (out of 
eight choices), must be clicked on by the mouse cursor.
	One of three - a color's name will be spoken and the color's name
will be displayed in small type. To answer correctly, the correct square (out 
of three choices), must be clicked on by the mouse cursor. Alternatively the
position (1-3, going from left to right) of the correct square may be pressed 
on the keyboard.
	Guess the picture - a color's name will be spoken and the color's 
name will be displayed in small type. To answer correctly, the square 
containing a picture of an object with the correct color (out of three 
choices), must be clicked on by the mouse cursor. Alternatively the
position (1-3, going from left to right) of the correct square may be pressed 
on the keyboard.
