Free to children ages five to thirteen with diabetes, this interactive adventure CD teaches kids how to properly manage their disease. Centered on an alien character named Xylo, the game takes kids through a day in the life of a child with diabetes, showing how blood sugar levels are checked, how to inject the insulin and how the child's daily activities are affected. Features include 3D navigation, exercises, arcade games and quizzes. The narration is done in both English and Spanish. The program was funded by Eli Lilly and Company and will make an excellent addition to schools, hospitals and homes.
