Stuck on Fun! Play with Patterns, Sticker Tape, & More! by Jannie Ho
Punch out the sturdy cardboard animal characters in this activity book then use the provided stencils, sticker tape, and patterned paper to make outfits designed especially for the animals.
Find Your Way Under the Sea and Find Your Way In the Jungle by Paul Boston
These activity books are packed with learning and activities for preschool-age kids. Not only are you trying to complete the maze but you’re also looking for items, answering map questions (coordinates), and answering math questions (who live in the hut with three windows?). I like that depending on how you go through the maze, there’s not a right ending point — no matter where you finish, you’re prompted to go to another page almost like a choose your own adventure book. Lots of details to notice in these colorful illustrations — no boredom here!
