The MAGIC SCREEN LEARNING DESK offers a choice of 3 fun activity panels, each with a different learning theme and play experience. Whichever panel is in the center (under the animation screen) will activate the screen and sounds when you press its buttons. To change activity panels, simply slide the Music Studio or Animal Academy panel to the center. A voice announces the name of the new panel, indicating it is ready for play. (The Learning Lab panel is stationary in the center and will be active when not covered by the left or right panels.) The animation screen must be in the "up" position for the toy to activate.

Note: It may be necessary for your child to lightly press the mouse as he or she spins it.

• Spin the mouse to quickly scroll through images and sounds that correspond to

the content of the active panel (such as musical instruments if the Music Studio panel is in the center). The last image animates on the screen, along with lights and sounds, but is not identified so that you can ask the child if he or she can name it.

• Spin a second time to hear the image’s identity as it reappears on screen.

• A third spin when the Learning Lab panel is active will show the image and say its first letter. In the other two

panels, the third spin scrolls forward to a new image and sound to identify.

CCoouunnttiinngg GGaammee ((LLeeaarrnniinngg LLaabb ppaanneell oonnllyy..))

• When the Learning lab panel is active, a set of buzzing fireflies will sometimes appear after a spin of the mouse.

When they stop flying, it is time to count them. A fun sound is heard as the fireflies twinkle one at a time.

• Spin a second time to hear a voice count as each firefly twinkles.

• Spin a third time to see the fireflies form the number that matches the count.

MMOOMM//BBAABBYY

SHUT-OFF/PEEK-A-BOO

• To turn off the toy manually, simply push the screen into the “down”

position as shown. A voice will say “Bye-bye” and the toy will shut down. Lift the screen to the “up” position to reactivate at any time.

• To play peek-a-boo, push the screen down as if to turn the toy off (you’ll

hear “Bye-bye!”). Quickly reopen the screen to see a smiling face and hear “Peek-a-boo!”

• To save battery life, the toy will turn off automatically (with the screen up)

after approximately a minute of inactivity. Before turning off, it will play through several screen savers such as swimming fish and fireworks, then say “Bye-bye” as the face descends from the screen. Reactivate at any time by pressing any key on the “active” panel.
