Lets children have fun decoration faces on - and off - the computer
Available in Australia and New Zealand now
Add your own photos of children, teachers, parents (anybody!) to SwitchIt! Facemaker and decorate them with hats, beards, glasses, earrings and more. You can also give people different eyes, noses, hair and funny ears, or even spots and face paint. Or try dressing up a picture of the child’s pet! Nearly 100 features give you thousands of combinations, engaging students in creative exploration and experimentation.
A cause and effect level adds features to a face in response to a simple switch input. Other options allow all learners to be creative according to their own ability. Suitable for non-readers too. Completed faces are saved to a viewing gallery and can be printed out for further use.
Ideal for cooperative play as well as any topics relating to personal, social and health education (PSHE), modelling (design and technology), art, supporting literacy and encouraging the use of mathematical language. A set of printable resources is included for you to use away from the computer.
