Anyone used this? Any opinions? I am looking at using it with my 2 youngers later this year, if I can hold them off! What do I really need? Thank you.

We used it and loved it.

I would get:

The Teacher's Manual--lots of ideas in there
the workbooks--the core of the program
the CD--great songs and a lot of fun

I would try to improvise on:

The blocks--the TM has a pattern in it to make your own

The roll-a-dough--You can use playdough for the dough, and make your own letter cards by drawing on index cards and covering them with clear contact paper

The stamp a letter--I just bought small magna-doodles and put a smilie sticker in the corner.

The Chalkboards--again I found small chalkboards and put a smilie sticker in the corner.

This was a lot of fun.:001_smile:
