👎🏼

I was really excited to get this book for my son. It stated some markings I paid 10.99 and the entire book it’s drawn in and pages are torn out.

You can find this same book on Amazon brand new for 6.00.

Get it on Amazon.

Did not expect pages to be colored in

A lot of the puzzles were solved, worth not more than 50 cents

Highly Recommend for Pre-K

My son just turned three in August, but he has already completed this book. We did a few pages everyday - I think we spent a couple of months on it. He is now able to write upper and lowercase letters, and can do simple math concepts, such as greater vs. lesser, which group has more...there are mazes, coloring activities, and a variety of lessons to teach shapes, sizes, counting, writing, etc. What I liked best about this book is the different phrases that they use in the instructions. My son learned the relationship between phrases "which ones match" and "where does it belong", "which one is different" and "which one is not the same"...just to name a couple. My son immediately applied what he learned from the book to his everyday activities, so I know that he did absorb some, if not all, the lessons. Since this book is a combination of smaller books from School Zone, it's not necessary to buy the others unless your child has trouble with a particular area. My son struggled with the pages dealing with "beginning sounds," so I bought him the book that is just activities to teach beginning sounds. I prefer School Zone to all other preschool workbook series, with the exception of Kumon.

My son ABOLUTELY loves this book.

I purchased this book on a whim. I was looking for a book that had a little bit of everything so my son could practice writing, circling etc. This book is so much fun. The sections are: Same or Different, Mazes, Does it belong?, Uppercase Alphabet, Lowercase alphabet, Thinking Skills, Preschool Basics, Preschool Scholar etc. It has many activites all of which my son love. He loves the Mazes section, matching and finding differences. He also like the thinking section which has activites where you look for things that don't belong in the picture. It's really an excellent book with 320 pages full of cute bright cartoon animals, toys and children. I can never flip the pages infront of my son when going to a specific page because he'll want to stop and work on something different. It really helps children learn on so many levels. My son is getting better at holding his pencil, learning to follow the directions. Here are just a few examples : - Circle pictures that are the same - Circle the pictures that are differen - Draw a line from this object to the matching one - Circle two pictures that make a pair At first I thought it was a little too expensive but after seeing the way my son loves this book it's worth every penny. There was a day he worked on it for close to 2 hours. I am purchasing individual books from this company too. A must buy.

So Under-rated

As a graduate student in education, this is one of the better books I have found in creating a variety of lesson plans that include fantastic creative outlets. In every idea in this book it leaves room for change. Kathy Douglas is phenomenal!

A MUST FOR ANY PRESCHOOLER

I recently purchased the Big Preschool Workbook for my soon to be 4 year old. She went to a preschool for a few months and I can tell you that this is exactly the kind of material they were using in the preschool. The worksheets start out by having the child circle items in a row that match the first item, then circle the item that is different and so on. The first time my daughter and I sit down to work on this she did not stop until she had completed 10 pages and wanted to do more. I think it works really well if you have pretend school. I tell my daughter that it is time for school, explain what she is to do on a page and when she is finished with that page I check it to make sure it is right. This is a GREAT book and I would definatley recommend it for any 3-5 year old.
