Pigeon Presents: Mo…on the Go!

PreS-Gr 1—Pigeon is back, and this time he's joined by several beloved Mo Willems characters in a number of entertaining game options. Narrators instruct users on how to operate the activities as upbeat piano music sets a playful tone. In "Pigeon's Dream Drive" children steer a bus driven by the bird through a maze of streets. The object? To pick up ducklings without being caught by a mad cow. Honking horns, barking dogs, and quacking ducklings add to the fun."Dance-o-Rama," featuring Gerald and Piggie, asks users to select dances for each character to perform to the tune of disco music. Leonardo the Terrible Monster hosts the "Monster Maker," which requires viewers to choose from an array of body parts to build a creature. Children can also create Knuffle Bunny-inspired pictures using the iPad camera.Willems makes cameo appearances in both "Monster Maker" and "Dance-o-Rama," and he's the host of "Mo's Squillems," a drawing activity designed for one or two players. In that game, children create pictures based on a squiggly line provided on the page. Each visit brings a new squiggle, offering endless possibilities. Mo…on the Go! is more than entertainment; it encourages imaginative play and problem solving.—Cathy Potter, Falmouth Elementary School, Falmouth, ME
