Travel Agency Game

The Travel Agency Game is an activity in JumpStart Around the World. It is designed for grades preschool through second grade, and teaches visual discrimination and math skills. It is accessed by clicking on the JumpStart Travel Agency button on the toolbar.

Premise
At the Travel Agency, the player can earn travel tokens if they help Brady Bear collect honey.

Description
The player controls Brady Bear by using the arrow keys. The player must move Brady Bear through the maze and make him eat all the honeycombs. Bees also frequent the maze. If Brady Bear gets too close to a bee, he'll get stung, and the player will lose one of their tries. Each maze contains a few honeypots. If Brady Bear eats from a honeypot, he'll gain temporary invincibility to the bees.

To earn tokens, the player must solve problems. At the lower grade levels, the player must look at the shape at the top of the screen, and then find the matching shapes in the maze. At the higher grade levels, the player must find the answers to addition and subtraction problems.

The player earns one travel token coupon for each problem they solved while playing. The activity is complete when the player has eaten all of the honey in the maze, at which point all of the travel token coupons that the player earned turn into travel tokens. If the player loses all their tries before finishing the activity, they will not receive any travel tokens.

During the activity, the player can quit and return to the map by clicking on the World button, or access the options menu by clicking on the Brady Bear button.
