They can operate a stoplight, or touch the cars to make them stop and go, learning more about each along the way. Watch your kids be more curious about cars on the road after playing Stop and Go! • Make the cement truck mix cement! • Sound the firetruck's siren and find his dog! • Move the bulldozer's shovel! • See who is inside the ice cream truck! The beautifully illustrated app has 12 different vehicles, each with a custom animation. Stop and Go! also has a second layer of interactivity that let's kids explore the environment: • Make it day or night by making the sun set and moon rise. See the cars by day, dusk, night and dawn. • Make it rain. • Turn the house lights off and on. • Make the fire hydrant spew water. • (and more!)

Play Stop and Go! HD on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)

The easiest way to play Stop and Go! HD on a Mac is through Parallels, which allows you to virtualize a Windows machine on Macs. The setup is very easy and it works for Apple Silicon Macs as well as for older Intel-based Macs.

Parallels supports the latest version of DirectX and OpenGL, allowing you to play the latest PC games on any Mac. The latest version of DirectX is up to 20% faster.

Our favorite feature of Parallels Desktop is that when you turn off your virtual machine, all the unused disk space gets returned to your main OS, thus minimizing resource waste (which used to be a problem with virtualization).

Stop and Go! HD installation steps for Mac

Step 1
Go to Parallels.com and download the latest version of the software.
