MUSIC MODE
When you select the MUSIC mode, you'll see musical notes scrolling
across the screen.
In the MUSIC mode, you will meet many of Bob's friends and enjoy the
tools that he and Wendy use in their work!
Press any of the ten NUMBER buttons to see a friend or a tool! Some
of the tools are used on construction sites. Other tools are used in
Bob's office!
When you press one of the SHAPE buttons, you will hear a note of
music. There are 8 shape buttons and so there are eight different
musical notes to hear! You can make up your own songs by pressing
these SHAPE buttons or experiment with them to play some of your
favorite songs!
Of course, always feel free to press the ENTER button to hear and see
the computer sounds and sights -- or press the MUSIC button to hear
the Bob theme song!
QUIZ
In the QUIZ mode, Bob will ask you lots of questions. For example, he'll
say, "CAN YOU FIND BIRD?"
Use the NUMBER buttons to find which button holds BIRD.
In all questions, you will be given 3 tries. After the third try, Bob will
move on to another question.
Or perhaps Bob will say, "CAN YOU FIND THE GREEN OVAL?"
The shape buttons are located across the keys at the bottom.
Bob will sometimes ask "NUMBER"questions. For example, Bob might
say, "WHAT COMES AFTER THE NUMBER FIVE?"
Use the NUMBER buttons. In this case, the correct answer would be
pressing the "6" button.
So in this mode, you will use the NUMBER buttons to select both
numbers and characters. So the NUMBER buttons do "double-duty" in
this mode!
In QUIZ mode, you and your child face a whole wonderful world of
questions about numbers, shapes, colors, characters, and tools!
Of course, you can press the ENTER button at any time to hear and see
the computer animations.
Don't forget to press the MUSIC button to hear the Bob theme song
as well!
ENCOURAGING WORDS AND ACTIONS
In the QUIZ MODE, Bob encourages your child by counting numbers
with you when you select a correct number. When you select a correct
shape, Bob will show you a longer animation as a reward! Throughout
play, Bob's steady and reassuring voice takes you through all the learning
tasks!
Wendy will often appear on screen as well, saying, "YOU CAN DO IT!"
And of course, you can!
COUNTING TOGETHER
Bob loves to count! On a regular basis throughout play in the QUIZ mode,
Bob will automatically say, "LET'S COUNT TOGETHER TO THE NUMBER...."
Each time, he will automatically count up to a different number. As Bob
counts, he shows the corresponding number of nails on your computer
screen!
TURNING THE UNIT OFF
LAPTOP COMPUTER FUN WITH BOB has an automatic shut-off feature
to help prolong battery life. After a brief period of inactivity, Bob prompts
your child for a response. If your child doesn't respond by doing a task
or pressing a button, Bob will repeat the prompt again. If there is still
no activity, the LAPTOP COMPUTER FUN WITH BOB will then automatically
turn itself off. Pressing the "ON" button can then restart the toy.
NOTE: Your child needs to wait until after Bob has stopped talking before
pressing a button or shape or before using a tool. Presses or activity
made while Bob is still speaking will not register.
