A play-and-learn volume that should provide young children with hours of fun and stimulating early learning activity. Its progressive approach from simple concepts such as colours and shapes, to counting and first science, should give your child a head start at reception class, and be valuable back-up to the first two years of primary school. The book introduces the basic skills of language, maths and science in an child-friendly and interactive way. There are fun facts, games to play and "Try this!" experiments to do at home, such as making a pull-along cart, simple recipes, and growing a bean seed. These involve the child and put the learning experience into practice. Divided into nine sections, each covering fundamental early-learning theme, the book presents colour, shape, words and animals sections which aim to develop vocabulary and communication skills. The final five sections practice numerical and investigative skills through counting, telling the time and basic science concepts such as sound and balance.
