The educational games company IQ-Spiele presents four new innovations at the 2009 International Toy Fair in Nuremberg. This year they focus on the skills reading-calculating-writing. According to them, to date the German market lacks professionally developed educational games that specially encourage these skills. But the demand and number of children with special needs are constantly high throughout Germany. With their LRS-Koffer (Dyslexia Suitcase), Rechenkoffer (Arithmatic Suitcase), Lernspielereien Rechnen (Educational Games Calculating) and Kasse-Gasse (Listening Comprehension and Clear Articulation) they will now close this cap.
