My Sticker Dictionary: Scholastic Early Learners (Sticker Book) - (Paperback)

I loved that there were several stickers needed per page to keep my 4 year old engaged, but the fact they crammed so many words on one page was distracting. Essentially he just started matching the stickers from the back to their silhouette on the corresponding pages and could care less about the learning portion...but it did keep him busy and occasionally asking questions.

I bought this book for a child who will be 4 a few months from now. He recognizes letters and knows the sounds they make. Most of the activities in this book, he can do. A few activities on some pages are too advanced (writing, decoding, word searches, using grids to copy drawings,). Each page has shadow spaces for about 3 stickers. The stickers are brightly colored and are mainly cute illustrations that seem to be aimed at young preschool children or toddlers (might be too babyish for older children). There are a few photo images used instead, and I wish the majority of the stickers were from photos. (There are 1-1/3rd pages of extra stickers that I removed and plan to use for having the child create his own alphabet book.) *I removed the six "card pages" at the back to use later. They are good quality, easy "punch-out & fold" crafts that will require a little help (very easy to remove). A pair of them are for creating a memory matching game.

The book is amazing.

This book was not at all what I was expecting, the print was small and crammed onto a page- very much not early learner friendly. I was expecting several pages of stickers for my daughter to play with; this book has a couple of pages of small stickers and is essentially a workbook. I’m returning this immediately.

My 4 year old loves it. Helps with her reading skills and the stickers keep her engaged.
