A Great Learning Tool

The Kumon workbooks continue to amaze me. I purchased My Book of Simple Sentences for my children when they were about 5 and 6. The colorful pictures are able to keep any child's attention. And, the big lines and texture of the paper allow small hands to feel comfortable even in the beginning stages of writing. The sentences are short and each lesson builds up to the next one. This workbook will help develop confidence in young children, and they are rewarded at the end because they will receive a certificate of completion. In our family, we did an awards ceremony after each book. So, yes I definitely would recommend this product to others.

Good Head Start

If you want little Johnny or Jane to get a jump on writing, this book by Kumon is a good way of going about it. It uses a progressive method of teaching about the elements of a sentence, using exercises to build up to writing simple sentences. It's clear, easy to understand, and as "fun" as something like this can be. My son did a page every night or so and writes (and reads) very well for someone his age. So go ahead and do it -- a little education never hurt anyone!
