While all the enjoyment is taking place, children are acquiring essential early learning skills: colour recognition and sorting, problem solving, listening skills, hand-to-eye coordination, logical thinking, basic mouse and PC skills, and many more. Rainbow Fish and the Whale is an excellently produced package that is faithful to the graphics and tone of the original stories. The program is easy to load and instructions are included on the CD-ROM. The package maintains the high quality you would expect from Dorling Kindersley, and is guaranteed to give hours of fun combined with learning, whether or not players are familiar with the Rainbow Fish books. --Susan Naylor

Synopsis
One day, whilst Rainbow Fish was playing in the ocean, Hermit the crab hurried towards Rainbow in a state of panic – the whale had swallowed up all of their friends! Cautiously they approached the Whale, who had severe hiccups, and in seconds Rainbow and Hermit were inside the Whale’s stomach. And so the adventure begins…

Children join Rainbow Fish and his loveable friends in this enchanting adventure in the deepest darkest part of the ocean. By completing a series of puzzles, games and activities, children will gradually find all of Rainbow Fish’s friends, and together they will find a way out of the Whale.
