Review: Little Artist - Sticker Medley

Yay! Another art kit made by Djeco. This one is called Little Artist - Sticker Medley. Like with most of the Djeco kits we have gotten before this one has 4 projects to complete. The 4 you can choose from are a hot air balloon ride, animals staking shapes, an animal submarine and an outside tea party. As with all Djeco kits the manual is super kid friendly. It is entirely done in picture instructions. Our daughter has been able to follow the manuals in these Djeco kits by herself since she was about 2 and a half years old. I will say that one thing I do not like about this manual is that the glittery red stickers are portraited as brown. But since there is no brown we quickly realized that the "brown" stickers were the red ones. The stickers are nice big foam ones. Because of this I would suggest this kit for young children about 2 and up. The stickers will be super easy for them for hold onto and place. Our daughter noticed that these ones are extremely sticky. These stickers are probably the most sticky I have ever some across.

What is really nice about Little Artist - Sticker Medley is that there is such a variety of stickers to use. There are textured green ones, sparkly red ones, 3 different stickers with patterns and 3 different colored shiny stickers. We decided to go ahead and do all the projects in one go since we did not really have anything else to do today. If I had had a bunch of housework to get done today then I would have been able to get about 30 minutes to an hour of chores done while our daughter completed these. I would have done one a week if we did not have a ton of art kits for this year already. If she accidently stuck a sticker in the wrong place it was easy to remove and replaced them. I was quite surprised by this since they are extra sticky stickers.

I would recommend Little Artist - Sticker Medley for anyone who loves art and young kids around the age of 2 and up. The stickers are nice and big so it will be easy for small hands to grasps and place on their own. The stickers came off the sticker page very nicely. Even though they are super sticky we were able to remove and replace them if need be. You will get 4 projects to do. I would suggest spacing them out instead of all in one day like we did that way the kit last a big longer than ours. What arts and crafts do y'all use? Do you like a certain art company, make your own kits, use an art curriculum or just get different stuff?

Review: Sensory Tissue Box

We have been trying out a lot of new baby items this year and here is another one we did not have for our first daughter. It is called Sensory Tissue Box . What makes this toy so much fun? Let's be honest babies love to get into things. We have tried before to let her play with a regular box of tissues. Big mess. The tissues were everywhere and they have like 250 tissues in a box, she torn them up to so an even bigger mess. Our daughter even went as far as to rip the box itself up. This sensory tissue box though is made of very soft fabric so she can not tear it up, it has 15 tissues so less to keep track of and the tissue can not be easily torn up either. This is the biggest positive of this sensory box in my opinion. Another positive to having this sensory tissue box instead of a regular one is that the tissues are different colors and sizes as well as having different textures to them. There are 6 see-through ones, 6 see-through ones that have dots on them and 3 crinkly ones. T

Review: 180 Days of Social Studies 1st

When I noticed that our history class did not have a lot for social studies I decided to look for something to add into our homeschool. I came across 180 Days of Social Studies and decided to try it. So, we started with the kindergarten version and I thought it was quite well done so we have kept it for 1st grade as well. Just like with the kinder one the booklet is done in black and white and I wish it was done in color. It goes over so much but in an easy to understand way for the age group that would be using it. 180 Days goes over American things so if you are homeschooling in another country and not learning about American history then I would look for another curriculum to use. The 1st grade version goes over the systems of government, civics, economics, geography and history. The thing I like best about 180 Days is that you only do a page a day. If your school year is a 36 weeks then you are perfectly set up to do 1 page a day. Since we do a 47 week school year we only do a few

Review: All About Reading Level 4

We have finished All About Reading Level 4 ! I am so glad that we started using this program from All About Learning Press. It is hands-down the best if you want to teach anyone to read. This last level goes over the rare teams, unexpected phonic sounds, and words that are borrowed from other languages. The break down of each lesson is amazing not only for the teacher but the student as well. The games incorporated make it really intriguing for the student. I absolutely love the little readers that come with each level. The lessons are perfectly spaced out so that it isn't too much at one time. I love the way the teacher's manual is done. As a dyslexic teaching another dyslexic I couldn't be happier with the teaching method. A lot of the things taught in all 4 levels of All About Reading I learned for the first time. I had never learned them in public school but am so glad I am able to teach them to my own kids. While most American adults read at a 7-8 grade level my seven
