Different children have varying abilities at different ages. In addition, a particular child's development can change radically in a short time. Disney's Learning Series dynamically and intuitively adjusts to the abilities of the child playing the game so that it is fun and not frustrating for the child at the lower age range, and still as fun, yet challenging, for the older child. The program makes adjustments automatically, without the child being aware that they are playing at a specific level. The goal is to have children playing at the level that presents challenges best suited for their abilities.
