The Backyardigans Mission to Mars

Calling all astronauts! Join The Backyardigans in this space adventure.

Watch The Backyardigans every day on Nick Jr.

Gameplay requires both the mouse and the keyboard.

Turn this single-player game into a "play together" by sharing the controls or asking your child to make gameplay choices while you work the controls.

Pretend play allows children to creatively express ideas and feelings, as well as think and solve problems through imagination and make-believe.

By thinking up ways to tackle a problem, then trying out these strategies, children sharpen language, mental imagery, reasoning, and memory skills simultaneously.

Early math includes numbers, counting, understanding math terms (more than, less than, circle) and concepts (comparisons, shapes, patterns), and reasoning.

Ages: 4-6 Cost: $19.99

Commander Uniqua needs you to join her brave Shuttle Crew on their mission to discover the source of a strange signal being sent to Mission Control from Mars. Help pilot the shuttle, race through a meteor shower, explore underground Martian caves, collect space gems, and more in one out-of-this-world adventure game!

Parent Tip: Prompt kids to use the space bar to elevate the Rover, and to use the back arrow to reverse it to avoid meteor showers and geysers.
