School Zone - Discover the Zoo Preschool Learning Workbook - 240 Pages, Ages 3 to 5, Stickers, Alphabet, ABCs, and More (Easy-Tear Top Bound Pad)

I bought a few prek books for my 3 year old to start working on school type worksheets. We work on writing her name and such, but I thought it would be nice to familiarize her with worksheets she will do next year in prek. This was the first to arrive. There are 240 sheets of activities to do in this book along with a couple sheets of stickers in the back. These sheets are double sided and have activities on both sides. The quality of the pictures and the sheets is amazing. They feel a bit thicker than regular paper and do not bleed through when using marker which is awesome. My only complaint is that the sheets come out of the book very easily. Almost as soon as you are flipping it to look at the next page. While this is probably to make it easier to take out and work on each page individually, it is a down side for me because if there is a sheet that we might need to come back to or something, it does not stay in the book. So, we work on each side of each page and then she picks out a sticker for finishing the page. She doesn't put the sticker on her paper, but rather her hand, shirt, baby dolls, etc. Which works out for throwing the worksheets away. So far we have done the first 10 pages or so. They have ranged from color by number to making it through the maze, to hidden pictures, to finding what is smaller, bigger, longer, etc. I am really happy with this because it works on so many skills at once. The mazes and line drawing works on their ability to have hand control, the color by number works on learning colors, numbers, and following through with directions. My daughter is so excited to work on a page or 2 each day so that is exciting as well. I would suggest this to anyone who has kids getting ready to write or enter prek or even those already in prek.

This workbook can get really repetitive and my daughter sometimes does not want to do it. The front pages usually consists of the "learning pages" where you learn how to write letters and numbers. On the flipside of those pages are usually a maze, hidden pictures or find the difference activities. The mazes are too easy for my 3 year old but she needs help sometimes with the hidden pictures. Overall I think it is an ok book as you follow a family throughout their visit to the zoo and the colors are fun but this is not our favorite workbook.

Perfectly made for preschoolers. Cute format and age appropriate learning tool. We used ours over the summer as a fun thing to do on rainy days. My kids 2 and 4 both enjoy this workbook.
