Wholesome Family Entertainment with Bamboo Bunch

March 31, 2008 - PRLog -- Columbia, Maryland -
Benxing Entertainment has unveiled Bamboo Bunch (http://bamboobunch.com) - an Internet destination where families can learn, play, and explore in a safe environment. Parents and children create Bamboo Buddies to explore the Bamboo Bunch world, play games, and customize their own private islands. With educational activities, parental controls, and no communication with Internet strangers, Bamboo Bunch is especially safe for children ages 4-12.

"Bamboo Bunch was born of my desire for a safe, educational, and ad-free environment in which my own children could learn, explore, and express their creativity," says Thomas Phillips, Executive Producer for Bamboo Bunch. Bamboo Buddies explore the enchanted Crystal Forest, searching for magical stars to the music of Mozart. For younger players learning to read, the Dolch words - important for kindergarten through 3rd grade reading - are constantly reinforced throughout the adventure.

With weekly updates, the virtual world of Bamboo Bunch is ever expanding with new educational content, areas to explore, and items players can use to customize their personal island. Smaller, targeted games inspired by state and national educational standards help reinforce basic reading and math skills.

Through the Bamboo Bunch family account system, each family member can have their own login - which includes their own Bamboo Buddy and personal island - for one low subscription price. Parental controls allow parents to set specific times their child may play. Because players do not directly communicate with one another, parents do not need to worry about their child having contact with Internet strangers while playing Bamboo Bunch.

Signing up for a Bamboo Bunch subscription not only gives families access to an ever-expanding fun and educational virtual world, but also lets families help others through charitable donations. Benxing Entertainment gives a portion of Bamboo Bunch revenues to five worthy charities: Autism Speaks; Doctors Without Borders; Make-A-Wish; Room to Read; and St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. When a family signs up for a Bamboo Bunch subscription, they have the chance to note which charity they would most like to support.
