MANCHESTER, 29th September 2016, music and sound design company GAS Music today announced they have re-mastered and produced well-known nursery rhymes for 4 educational apps created by NW-based The Game Creators. The Apps support the UK national curriculum and cover the key subjects of Maths, English, Art & Music and Science & Technology for 3-5 year olds. Music used in educational apps is crucial in maintaining the child’s interest and encouraging the repeat play that helps the learning process.
The Game Creators worked closely with UK teachers, nursery schools and parents to create EduGuru and launched the Maths app in September, which features 128 games that engage children with core curriculum subjects in a fun open-ended way. GAS Music’s nursery rhyme tracks set the scene and add drama to the games which feature cute animated characters that bring education to life outside the classroom.
GAS Music, Founder, Gary Hilton, said;
“We are very pleased to be working with The Game Creators on such an important project. Music is vital to create interest and maintain play in apps especially for small kids and the subject matter, so we worked hard to achieve some great tracks. Recording the nursery rhymes with the children was good fun and we look forward to working with The Game Creators on the next EduGuru app.”
The Game Creators Marketing Director, Deborah Ascott-Jones, said;
“Working alongside Steve and Gary on the new EduGuru Maths app has been great from proposal to launch. The team have been incredibly creative and professional. As experience composers in the gaming industry, they knew how appealing music has to be to work in an app. We look forward to working with GAS to create the music for the next apps we are building in the EduGuru collection.
