Review: Djeco Modeling Dough Prints and Shapes

Djeco Modeling Dough Prints and Shapes is just the cutest little art kit. It works your little one’s motor skills while allowing them to have fun in a creative way. We got our kit from Timberdoodle. It comes with everything you need and an instruction manual that is done in pictures so it’s easy for young kids to do all by themselves. The only downside is that the kit only comes with 4 projects but you can do them over and over which is nice.

Our daughter really loves art so this kit was right up her alley. She did find it a bit hard to roll the dough on the textured tiles but that’s because you need to push and roll at the same time. After a few tries she got the hang of it. She wanted to do all of the projects in one day.

What I really like about this Djeco kit is that it works motor skills, colors, shapes, reading the picture instructions and creativity. The pictures are really cute and our daughter had a ton of fun doing the projects. Since the dough is reusable we’ll be doing these again. I’d definitely recommend this kit or any Djeco kit really. We’ve loved all the art kits from this company.

Review: All About Reading Level 4

We have officially reached the summit of All About Reading Level 4 , and I am currently accepting trophies, high-fives, and perhaps a very large latte. If you had told me a few years ago that we’d be tackling "anomalous phonetic structures" and "loanwords" without a total household meltdown, I would have assumed you were hallucinating. Yet, here we are, and I am officially a fan-girl for All About Learning Press. This final level is essentially the "Black Belt" of literacy instruction, diving into the deep end of the linguistic pool with a level of clarity that is frankly miraculous. The curriculum tackles those treacherous "borrowed" words that usually make the English language look like it was put together in a blender. As a dyslexic educator teaching a fellow dyslexic, I’ll be entirely transparent: I encountered phonetic principles in these four levels that were completely absent from my own public school experience. I was basically learning ...

Review: Djeco Pompom Pictures - All Aboard

Djeco Pompom is a super cute and easy art craft for toddlers. They just put the pompoms on the corresponding dots. I like that it comes with all the pompoms you need. However, the glue stick they give you doesn’t make the pompoms sticks to the board. I tried regular glue and that didn’t work either so I ended up having to use a hot glue gun. So, I suggest having hot glue if you get this. There are small circles on the boards to let you know what color pompom goes where so it’s pretty self-explanatory. The kit does come with a small manual that it done with pictures so even your little one can look at the manual and understand which pompoms go on which board.

Review: A to Z Board Book

In our household, literature is the cornerstone of early education, so we began our daily reading rituals when our daughters were mere infants. While our shelves are currently burgeoning with an eclectic array of alphabet primers, the A to Z Board Book has secured a particularly prestigious position in our rotation. As the name suggests, this is a board book—a vital feature for anyone navigating the "destructive" phase of toddlerhood. My youngest has a penchant for paper shredding that would rival a high-end office machine, so the sturdy construction of a board book is a non-negotiable necessity. However, because this is a "lift-the-flap" volume, I maintain a strict "supervised access only" policy to ensure the flaps remain attached to their respective pages. We have integrated this book into our daily school routine, as it offers a multifaceted sensory experience. My daughter is currently enchanted by the interactive elements, relishing the opportunity ...
