Date: 25 Sep 2007
EL SEGUNDO, Calif. – September 24, 2007 – Konami Digital Entertainment, Inc. today announced that Konami Kids Playground for the PlayStation®2 computer entertainment system is now available in retail stores nationwide. Featuring a collection of fun and active games and a game mat designed specifically for young children, the games will get children off the couch and using their feet. Children ages two to five must complete simple mini-games designed to teach basic concepts like the alphabet, numbers, colors and shapes. Konami Kids Playground proves that education can be fun for even the youngest kids, and encourages activity that will keep them moving, laughing and learning.
“Kids are becoming tech-savvy at a much earlier age now, and it is very difficult to find digital content that caters to this younger demographic,†said Anthony Crouts, Vice President of Marketing for Konami Digital Entertainment, Inc. “With Konami Kids Playground we are able to provide a fun gaming experience that young children and their parents will have fun with and feel good about.â€
The first game in the series, Frogger® Hop, Skip & Jumpin’ Fun, comes bundled with a custom game mat that uses color coded shapes as buttons that are smaller and placed more closely together to provide easy access for young children. Additional games in the Konami Kids Playground series, Alphabet Circus, Dinosaur Shapes and Colors and Toy Pals Fun with Numbers, use the same game mat in different ways to help players learn new concepts and improve coordination. Players will be guided through mini-games in the Konami Kids Playground series of games by friendly in-game characters who will applaud successes and offer words of encouragement when players make mistakes.
Frogger Hop, Skip & Jumpin’ Fun, bundled with the custom game mat, is available for an SRP of $39.99. Alphabet Circus, Dinosaur Shapes and Colors and Toy Pals Fun with Numbers are available for an SRP of $19.99. For more information, please visit www.konami.com .
