What is A Color Clown Comes to Town?

An educational game for preschoolers based on the book by Jane Belk Moncure. The download is a hybrid TOAST image created with Roxio Toast Titanium 6 on OS X.

Tested on my Indigo iMac G3 (2000, 350MHz) running Mac OS 9.2.1 and found no problems at all, but it will also work on other 68k and PowerPC Macs running System 7.1 and later and a 16MHz 68030 processor and faster as well. I have not tested this in OS X Classic Mode.

If your preschooler has yet to learn the difference between red, orange, green, and blue, it might be time to call in the clowns, or at least the Color Clown and his sidekick, Laura. The comic duo teaches kids the properties of color (hues and shades, primary versus secondary) as well as some basic reading skills via an interactive coloring book. (Kids can act as the narrator by recording their voices over the story.) If kids get bored with the book, they can switch to mixing paint for Laura’s art projects in the mixing room, or matching everyday objects with their colors in the squirting gallery.
