Educational Insights Hot Dots Jr. Let's Master Pre-K Math Set, Homeschool & School Math Workbooks, 2 Books & Interactive Pen, 100 Math Lessons, Ages 4+

Again I purchased this product for my 4 year old grandaughter whom Is being home schooled she's learned so much and is beyond other children of her age! These workbooks makes it wonderful to teach a child abc's shapes, vowels , she's only 4 years old she writes her full name recognizes when to use a capitol letter. These workbook were made by a teacher it makes it fun to learn with their magical different pens which makes it interesting! My grandaughter loves doing what she calls Homework! These workbooks are worth every cent and I would truly recommend this to anyone who wants to home svhool their child!

Hot Dots are great for independent practice or individual play time. The immediate feedback in a fun way is great for learning.

Bought this for a two year old who loves this! Some pages are still too old for them, but others (i.e. which is the largest/tallest, which shape is a triangle, counting to 5) work well for this age, and they LOVE the dog pen. So don't rule this out for younger ages just because they won't be able to do everything in the book.

This is cute and I love that, compared to say LeapStart, I didn't have to download any audio/data - it was ready to go right out of the box (with some batteries, of course!). I was going to purchase a LeapFrog LeapStart, but the numerous frustrations I read about with downloading the audio/data pushed me away from what I thought would be a cool product. This seemed much easier to use. There will definitely be a learning curve with how it works, but I think it is a nice idea. Additionally, there are some questions written above, so these would need to be read to the youngster by a fluent reader so that the learning activity made sense. It's not like LeapStart, which I believe just speaks to you, so there may need to be some adult supervision/guidance.

It is a great product but I am a little disappointed because I thought this was self teaching and it still requires me to do one on one with my 4 year old as the one only says right or wrong answer and my 4 year just plays the guessing game with the book. I wish they pen could read the questions for the child this would make it easier on a busy parent.

I bought the reading and math prek and love them

Loved that the packaging was sturdy the kids love the gifts *buy batteries* they do not come with my 3yr old put the pen in his mouth had to dry it out & then it worked I love that you can take it in the car & kids stay busy

Was concerned about purchasing because of the reviews about how hard it is to get the correct answer and all. Really it's not that hard. OUr grandson is 4 and he could do it. Our 2 year old niece even got it to work right sometimes. It says for PRE-K. Some children lacking in fine motor skills may have issues. HOWEVER, this is a good tool to use to improve those skills and math skills. We will purchasing the Language Arts version also.
