Magic Bus Basics The Magic School Bus software programs are interactive science programs for children ages 6 through 10. They require basic
mouse and typing skills, but once you get children started, they can play and work independently. The programs are designed
to encourage experimentation and exploration; children can click almost anywhere on the screen to see or hear a result. There
