This book is full of wonderful projects and great tips for parents teaching math concepts. My son is 4 and loved all the projects we have done from the book. I checked this out from our local library in hopes of having fun and helping my son count with more easy and confidence. So far it seems to be working he now takes his time counting and we both enjoy the projects. This experiance has actually helped give me more confidence in teaching my son about math.
