More Dot-to-Dots

Each of these books holds 50 fun dot-to-dot puzzles that improve skills in number recognition, hand-eye coordination, drawing, word skills, and more. Connecting all the dots makes a picture of an animal or other kid-friendly object and completing these pictures builds self-esteem. Puzzles get more advanced through the individual books (from connecting numbers 1-11 to 1-39), but each book is geared toward the same grade and has the same difficulty level overall. Pages are in black and white, reproducible, and include solutions. The finished puzzles are also fun to color. 64 pgs, pb. - Jon

A short introduction is provided for the parent/teacher and highlights the importance and applications of the skill set being covered.
