By playing this bat game pupils of primary school may better understand how sonar- or echo-locating system is actually working for these animals. In the Bat-Game pupils act like a bat while they have to find their way in the 'dark' across invisible obstacles. The program works on IBM PCs with VGA.

Ames Education Foundation of Fresno, California has an excellent second grade curriculum called "Bats Incredible". I think it retails for $5 or $10. Lots of class activities, games, songs, etc.,etc.
