High quality, great activities

Super Cute and Fun for Toddlers
I got Play Smart Early Learning for my 2-year-old, and we loved it so much that we bought another one for our niece. The crafts are adorable, like putting a band-aid on, and it’s super cute. It’s been a fun and educational activity that keeps the little ones engaged and happy. Highly recommend for any parent looking for a creative and interactive learning tool for their toddler.
Great purchase
A must for every toddler. My daughter loved working with this book and enjoyed every activity page.
Great!
My 2 1/2 year old absolutely loves this activity book. We blew through it during the holidays. I just wish we were able to tear the pages out instead of giving her the whole book or sloppily cutting them self.
Must have for toddlers!
Whether youâre homeschooling or just looking for a fun learning book for 2+ year old. This is it. Iâd been looking around and wanted something colourful and fun and dynamic. This has everything from colouring, tracing, origami, cut and paste, so many cool activities that my TV loving toddler was actually excited to focus on. We go through as many pages at a time as she wants and sometimes she gets fixated on an activity on a page and we just do that the whole time. Just get it!
Fun learning
My daughter enjoyed the activities and it was a fun way to learn
The best learning books
I am in love with these and hope to collect them all for my 3 year old. So engaging and enjoyable. My daughter had so much fun with this book
Cute, toddler enjoys!!
Cute activities, toddler enjoys doing a few pages a day! 🙂
My son turned 3 a few months ago and We get to sit down together and do this. It’s a great way for him to learn, have fun, and feel accomplished. He loves the stickers part the most, but still has had fun with the rest too. I just ordered more of the workbooks they offer and I can’t wait to get to do more with my little one.
El contenido is ok pero las hojas se desprende…. todo el libro se ha destruido
Me gustan muchos estos libros , están diseñados muy bien y pensado en los peque, mi hijo de casi 3 años puede hacer casi todo el libro .. evidentemente con ayuda pero me gustó mucho y tengo toda la colección.
It is a good activity book to do together with your toddler. Each task explains what skill it helps develop. Our 2yo boy loves it so much that he goes thru bunch of leasing till he gets bored. Usually keeps him for round 20min occupied (thatâs usually very hard for boys!). I recommend it as a great activity to do together at home with your toddler.
Our eighteen month old gets jealous of her older siblings’ school work, so I thought it might be fun to get her a workbook of her own. She loves it!There’s a wide variety of simple activities: stickers, colouring, tracing, folding. She needs a bit of support, but, she also enjoys leafing through the book, talking about the pictures by herself, so it’s fulfilling its purpose of keeping her away from her siblings’ work.The only slightly strange thing is that the spot-the-difference activities encourage her to stick an angry face sticker on the odd one out. Hopefully, it’s not conveying any messages about despising differences (the pictures are ice creams, burgers etc.)I’m really pleased we got it, and will buy her more in the series, when she’s done. Though, at a generous 64 activity pages, plus a pull out wipe clean drawing page, that may take a while.
