Book Reviews of Games for Learning: Ten Minutes a Day to Help Your Child Do Well in School-From Kindergarten to Third Grade
Book Review: Absolutely Terrific
Summary: 5 Stars
This book is fantastic, and is the functional opposite of all those repetitive drill- and workbooks. The "games" are unique and ingenious: low-tech enough to do on the fly, but fostering solid math and language skills. The author divides the book into subjects (logic, math, language, science), and then groups the activities in each subject according to grade level. From my experience with the book (mainly math and language), Kaye's games are appropriate for each grade level, and can be adapted to teach slightly younger children. My kids love playing any kind of game, and the book has become my go-to resource when one of them needs a little extra help understanding concepts learned at school. The time spent playing with your kids is an extra bonus.
