St. Paul, Minnesota - Mercury Learning Systems today is pleased to introduce Super Flash Accelerated Learning Games for Children 1.0 - Animal Kingdom for iPad, their Education app that uses a rapid flashing technique to help children 0.5 - 12 years of age acquire knowledge and develop their full learning potential. The app is one of a series devoted to whole-brain, speed learning for kids, with this app focusing on animals from around the world. The app provides practice in learning about both common and rare animals from around the world, together with their associated words and word sounds, while developing encyclopedic knowledge and vocabulary as well as photographic memory and rapid memory recall. Designed for young children learning English as a native or foreign language, the app has many options for various learning modes and abilities. It is also suitable for older children, as well as adults, because of its inherent educational and memory enhancement benefits.

Educational and Psychological Benefits:
* Instant animal/word/sound association and recognition
* Photographic memory and rapid memory recall
* Encyclopedic knowledge and vocabulary
* Stronger right and left brain connections (whole-brain learning)
* Increased self-esteem and positive attitude
* Ability to learn any school subject faster and better (speed learning)

In basic mode, children tap the Play button, then watch and listen as from 1 to 10 animal photos appear on the screen for about two seconds each. Between each photo, the animal's name seen as a word with its name read aloud and an audible fact about it are flashed. Then, those same animals, mixed in with several others, appear in the play area. The child finds and touches each animal/word they recall from memory to reveal a winning star. When all the animals are found and stars won, a victory page appears filled with animated stars and a positive, winning, audible voice-over affirming their success. The app features many different options for playing the game.

Feature Highlights:
* Children learn about common and unusual animals and creatures from around the world using properly designed speed-learning methods
* Uses clear, high-contrast photographs with no background (best for brain development and memory retention)

Created by Bradley C. Davis, producer of multiple award-winning Memory Magic Accelerated Learning Games for Children and owner of Mercury Learning Systems LLC, the app utilizes scientifically proven, accelerated learning techniques inspired by experts in whole-brain education and child development. Brad stated, "The goal of these early learning apps is to enhance what is referred to as whole-brain learning, by stimulating right-brain functions through a rapid flashing technique, then strengthening those pathways to left-brain functions through memory recall. When both types of learning methods are used in a fun game environment, speed learning can take place and children can develop abilities that make learning any school subject faster and easier with greater memory retention."

Awards (CD version of same game):
* Top Choice Award from the Boston Museum of Science
* Excellence in Education Award from the Education Clearing House
* Perfect 10 from GameZones KidZone
* All Green Lights from the National Institute on Media and the Family

"Most early learning animal games for children use unrealistic imagery and audio or too much visual stimulation. These stimuli inhibit a young child's ability to form proper perceptions of what animals look like in reality and can block their full learning ability," stated Bradley Davis, head of Mercury Learning Systems LLC. "Our early learning memory games are designed using proper imagery and stimulation methods that can naturally release your child's genius abilities."

Device Requirements:
* Compatible with iPad
* Requires iOS 3.2 or later (iOS 5 tested)
* 85.3 MB
