This puzzle book can really be so much more! I plan to use this for my kiddo who doesn't really enjoy coloring. He'll create the pictures to reveal what we're learning that day or even use them in his notebooking journal as an illustration. I also like the idea of using the little solution cards on the back to serve as a timeline or keepsake book.
I got these as something to do in the car or while we wait for one or another child at a lesson. My 11 year old son picked his up right away and wouldn't get up from the table till he'd completed his first one! My 8 year old daughter enjoys hers too, although she needs help sometimes and gets frustrated more easily so I swiped one of her pages and now I want a book of my own! If you have a task-oriented child this is a great way to keep them busy.
My son enjoys trying to figure out what the dots form, and he really likes that the pictures are places in the United States.
My son enjoys this little extra each week. As soon as he completes a picture, he comes running to see if I can guess what it is. I love how this deviates from traditional school and allows them to think, yet have fun doing so.
It was a fun thing she could do while waiting for me to finish working with one of her siblings. It was always fun to see the finished picture.
