"Website Of The Month", Junior Magazine

Here is a great review of The Fungooms, taken from Junior Magazine, January 2012:

"Simple, satisfying and ever-so-slightly surreal, The Fungooms is a charming and subtly educational website that aims to encourage young children and their parents to surf the web together. The Fungooms themselves are an eccentric collection of characters with individual hobbies that children can participate in, or simply sit back and watch them unfold while listening to a soothing soundtrack. Help green-fingered Papa Polperro tend to his garden, assist arty Gumpa in a series of creative pursuits, or simply relax in Mena's snug while a picture book rolls across the screen. Games are purposely designed to engage, but not over-stimulate, young web surfers, while the lack of text ensures that the site is internationally accessible and has attracted many young followers from far-flung corners of the globe."

Nearly There...

My very lovely friend Susie is coming all the way from her icy lair in Findhorn to stay with us for a few days. She is the lady who does the naration on the Fungooms stories, the third of which is almost ready and just needs the vocal track, music and sound effects done. And when that's done we'll be able to move on to making some more mini games!

Hello World!

Hi and welcome to the new Fungooms Blog. The world probably doesn't need any more blogs, but since it's release last year, The Fungooms has been surprisingly successful and receives many visitors every day and I get many questions about the site from parents so I will try and post useful info here, just as soon as I have worked out how blogs actually work!

Now, normal people add updates to their blogs with some sort of chronological logic, but I have a very non linear brain, so I apologise in advance for any randomness.
