Kid's Room

About: Kid's Room is another challenging Japanese room escape game from Robamimi. You play a character that lives in a futuristic age with myRobot and myPhone. You misplace your myPhone in the kid's room. When you enter the room to find your hitech accessory, you find yourself locked up in the room. Will you be able to navigate your way out of the room? I especially like the graphics in this game. Also, the gamemaker provides hints throughout the games for people who are stuck but prefer to complete the game themselves (like me. :P)

Colored Pencil Tutorial by Emperpep

Author's Comments: This tutorial will tell you how I work with colored pencils. I will use student grade colored pencils and normal copy paper that prove that you make it without using expensive artist quality materials.

About: I find this tutorial really useful not that it is really detailed and all but it totally convinces me that expensive materials are not the way to go in improving the standard of one's artworks.

Fractions by Zeebo

About: Having trouble teaching or learning fractions in a easy-to-understand, easy-to-follow and fun way? I think Fractions by Zeebo is the solution. Although its graphics are not exactly the best, but I must say that it really makes fractions easier to understand and it's definitely more interactive than a lecture on the topic.

Fascinating but Deadly

About: When Dorothy and her friends marched through the woods to the Emerald City, they worried about lions, tigers, and bears. But they needn’t have been so concerned. Wild animals generally avoid all contact with people. Attacks on humans are rare and usually occur when animals have been provoked or surprised. 

Exact figures on how many people are attacked are difficult to determine since many attacks go unreported, or occur in areas of the world where reporting is difficult. Such attacks, however, are believed to be on the rise as people increasingly encroach on nature through outdoor recreation, or by moving into remote areas. 

Would you believe that hippopotamus are among these deadly creatures? Or that mosquitoes are the most fatal?
