'THE SPACE PLACE' DVD PACKAGE
Series 1 'We have lift off'
A fully interactive package containing DVD, CD-ROM & set of 49 Cards
Designed to help young children, particularly those with autism and ASD,
have a better understanding of emotions and social interaction
A series of animated films featuring a museum 'The Space Place'
and space vehicles and rockets with friendly faces
When George, The Caretaker, locks up for the night
all the model space vehicles come to life!
Using simple stories the aim of the series is to help children
(particularly those on the autistic spectrum) to have a better
understanding of the link between facial expression and emotion
also exploring important areas in social development
particularly the role of friendships in a child's life
Each of the 12 episodes focuses on one emotion
helping the child to explore emotions and social skills
Children with ASD are often attracted to mechanical objects
and so the vehicles in the show will quickly become friends
Through repeated viewings of the characters it has been shown
to improve a child's awareness of emotion and social interaction
The package contains a DVD with 12 episodes and several interactive sections of fun activities including:
-
'Build a face'- allows the child to select the eyes and mouth that make up a key expression
-
'Spot the face' - a child is asked to spot the first time they see a particular expression
-
'Outer Space' - the child explores planets and stars
-
'Round the Gallery' - the child can go on a journey around The Space Place
the lessons learned.
Also included is an interactive CD-ROM 3-D game to play on a PC or MAC computer, and a pack of 49 printed character cards and instructions, for 6 games and activities to play, that help to reinforce
Brought to you by the BAFTA nominated creaters of 'The Transporters' (a series of 15 films for autistic children that have proved to be very effective in improving the recognition of emotion based on facial expression amongst children in the autistic spectrum).
