Kids on-line 3D entertainment is set to take on a new direction with the launch of the Greanwold community for children in September 2008. Greanwold takes a refreshing step in on-line interactivity by being specifically designed to educate while engaging kids in a fun and safe learning environment.
A little over 12 months ago developers began to brainstorm the idea of creating the Greanwold on-line community for kids. The inspiration behind creating Greanwold came from the recognition that despite children being avid users of the Internet general levels of literacy and numeracy continue to decline worldwide. With that in mind Greanwold developers have set out to design an on-line virtual environment that seeks to address these global short falls in a new and exciting way.
On-line communities for children generally provide entertainment, offering a mix of games and social networking features. Greanwold has taken this basic concept and added an extra level of interactivity with its unique on-line tutoring functionality. This enables kids to chat in real time with an on-line tutor who will tailor educational assistance to an individual’s specific needs. “Greanwold’
Greanwold games continue on an educational theme being based on real life activities such as employment, managing businesses, buying houses and general money management. Children navigateGreanwold by adapting characters to suit their own personality and can create original content for the site including music and drama. “Creating this world and tying in real world features makes a game atmosphere that can help teach kids many of the basic life lessons while exploring their own personal creativity. Greanwold provides an opportunity for kids to learn things that schools no longer focus on while having fun and adventure,” says Lawrence.
High on the checklist for any parent are well-founded concerns for their children’s safety when engaging in social networking features such as chat. Greanwold has utilized advanced technology in their chat facilities that automatically block any malicious or personal information from being exchanged. Live on-line assistance is also provided, adding a further level of protection for children’s safety.
“Our goal is to provide a unique exciting learning environment for children across the world,” says Lawrence. “We believe that children are discerning Internet users and the limit for their potential to learn is determined by the scope of opportunities we present to them. We have developed Greanwold with the expressed aim of broadening the opportunities for children around the world”.
