Scholastic Adds to Animal Genius Games

Both cartridge and digital versions of the game will be available for LeapFrog tablets later this month.

Designed for children ages 5 to 9, “Super Animal Genius” features nine mini-games that introduce young learners to 12 different animal habitats and 40 different reptiles, birds, amphibians and mammals. Players earn animals for each habitat by playing the mini-games and completing Animal Challenge quizzes.

“Scholastic is once again delighted to join forces with LeapFrog to excite children about learning with hours of engaging content for kids,” says Leslye Schaefer, senior vice president of marketing and consumer products, Scholastic Media. “Building on the popularity of the Animal Genius franchise, ‘Super Animal Genius’ appeals to a child’s natural curiosity about animals with exploratory and fact-based gameplay.”
