Puzzles that take a minute each are often more useful to a young child than one long exercise, and this 48-page book is put together on that principle.
More than two hundred activities fill the volume, pitched at children of four and up and intended to work on attention, sequencing, matching and simple problem solving. The short format means a child can finish something and see the result, which keeps the book in use rather than abandoned after a few pages. Adults supervising need no special preparation, and the paperback is slim enough to travel in a bag for journeys or waiting rooms.
What the activity pages include:
• More than 200 short activities across 48 pages
• Written for children aged 4 years and above
• Exercises covering matching, sequencing and attention
• Tasks short enough to finish in about a minute each
A handy pick for parents, nursery teachers and anyone keeping young children usefully occupied, published by Infinity Publishing and available from Boipoka.
