I have two children, a 7 year old girl & a 4 year old boy. They both love the Kumon workbooks. I have to stop by 4 year from trying to finish an entire book in 1 evening. He loves the cutting books best and especially loves receiving this certificate at the end. The books for my 7 year old are very good too. We have enjoyed the money series along with the crafts. We enjoy going through the books together. My 7 year old enjoys helping her younger brother complete books she has already completed. The books also use a very nice paper and are bright and colorful.

Somewhat tedious |

I have found the Kumon series of workbooks to be useful for all of my children who have used them. The books dealing with fine motor skills are excellent; some of the pages can be done by young children with practically no assistance (such as in the cutting, tracing, and maze books), while others need a bit of direction from a sibling or parent (such as folding and crafts). I have mixed feelings about some of the math skills workbooks: The money workbooks are quite good and have some variety in the pages, but I think the time books are somewhat tedious and aren't as effective. The number workbooks have some pages that involve a lot of writing which my children found boring and tiresome, but are still useful overall.

These workbooks are so appealing and the concepts made so clear. My children especially loved the number bundle.

Really knew how to tell time after finishing. |

This is a great, colorful, child friendly way to teach your kids how to tell time (hour and half hour). My son liked doing the pages and really knew how to tell time after he'd finished. The only negative point is that they have to trace numbers that aren't written the same way our handwriting curriculum uses. Not a big enough problem though to keep me from ordering the second book!

We liked Kumon books so much we bought 5 more! |

We began using the Kumon cutting and folding books about a year ago with our then 2 1/2 year old daughter who had never had a pair of scissors in her hand. She loved the books, learned quickly how to cut on the wide lines, and enjoyed doing "school" with the others in our family. We liked those books so much that we went on with the Jigsaw Puzzle book for her and now she is cutting and piecing together pieces to make great, colorful pictures, while also matching numbers. Her sister, who is 5, absolutely loves the Easy Crafts book. She has a shoe box that she puts all her crafts into, and repeatedly gets out the things she has made and plays with them. We liked it so much that we bought 5 more to give to other little girls for their birthdays. Our 5 year old also has enjoyed the Number Games book and Telling Time. These books are a great way for preschoolers to improve their fine motor skills in a meaningful, fun way.
