About the Space Racers! app: 

A twist on the traditional flying game, kids can tag-team between four characters--Eagle, Robyn, Hawk, and Starling—as they soar through space, and around Stardust Bay, collecting stars and avoiding obstacles...just don't run out of fuel!

Learning values include overcoming challenges, as children need to consider variables such as the effects of wind on speed and magnets on metal objects.

As they move through game rounds, children will experiment and make choices based on knowledge gained in previous levels.

The game is designed to create perseverance, mastery, and curiosity for preschoolers, as they learn and succeed through exploration.  Here's what you'll find on the app: 

• 32 rounds of game play 
• 8 engaging worlds to explore  
• 4 characters who tag-team throughout the course!
• Surprise “power-ups” 

Watch Space Racers on Rhode Island PBS Saturday mornings at 9:30 a.m.
