Ready, Set, Learn!

The Big Get-Ready-for-School Workbook for Ages 4-6

Ready, Set, Learn! cover

Everything they need before day one.Starting school is a big step. This workbook makes the run-up to it feel like play.

Ziggy the Zebra, Bella Bunny, Max Monkey, Luna Lion and Pip the Penguin guide your child through seventy-two pages of big, bright activities — built in the order a four-year-old actually learns, not jumbled together at random.

What's inside

Colors — eight colors to name, trace and hunt for around the house

Shapes — six shapes, plus where to spot each one in the real world

Pencil Power — lines, zigzags, curves and loops that build the muscles writing needs

Numbers 1 to 20 — count, trace, circle, match and draw

The whole alphabet — every letter A to Z, capital and small, each with a picture to color, plus three review pages

Write your own name — the skill every teacher asks about on the first day

All About Me — body parts, feelings, opposites, weather and patterns

A star chart and a certificate to fill in and sign together

Made for little hands

Large 8.5 x 11 inch pages with plenty of room to be wobbly

Big, clear type — no squinting, no crowding

Friendly characters on every page, so it feels like a story and not a test

Short notes for grown-ups on how to help without taking over

No screens. No pressure. Just a crayon, a few minutes a day, and someone beside them.

Perfect for ages 4 to 6, preschool and pre-K at home, the summer before kindergarten, homeschool, and quiet time that is actually useful.
