Guide Review

Learn about Jewish Holidays via an exciting Space Adventure

First, load the space ship and then blast off into space. The mission is to destroy invading space asteroids by using on-board lasers to track and then shoot at incoming asteroids. Players must be somewhat coordinated to track and shoot. However, the most challenging part of the game is to acquire more needed ammunition, and this is done by correctly answering questions about Jewish holidays. The questions are offered at different levels. Helpful hints are provided as some of the questions are quite challenging. Whether the child answers correctly or incorrectly, full, educational answers are provided. All in all, a great way to reinforce your child's learning about Jewish holidays.
