School Zone is our favorite brand for learning activities, and they recently gifted us some new flash cards, workbooks, and activity books. We are happy to provide a product review of these items!
In our home, we are still deeply in the midst of remote learning. Mabel is in Kindergarten, and has been learning a lot through the screen. She loves interacting with her teachers and classmates in the virtual world. During her school day, she alternates between live sessions with the class and breaks for independent learning. We try to use her screen breaks to offer a variety of hands-on, tech-free learning options.
During these first few months of school, Mabel has already made great progress in her understanding of letters, words, and how they all work together for reading and writing. She has really enjoyed these new learning activities from School Zone. These are perfect activities to gift to the little learners in your life!
