This is a book of exercises and solo/group activities for the youngest children (Level 1; up to age 4/5) about Christmas! It’s colorful and thematic. It’s fun to look at and play around with. It helps your kid explore different challenges, vocabulary and exercises, all covered in a nice Christmassy theme.
About half of the pages require cutting out some material, and half do not. A large chunk of the busy book is educational, practicing core skills like pencil control, colors, shapes, basic patterns and more. As the name suggests, however, the busy book is first and foremost meant as a fun and easy way to kill some time during the summer!
Because such young children (usually) can’t count or read yet, none of the exercises require it. It’s still recommended, however, to guide your child through the book and help them (explain/cut out/steer in the right direction). It’s much harder for a child of that age to 100% figure out what they’re supposed to do on their own!
For actual puzzles (e.g. sudoku, crosswords), as always, check out the Christmas materials in the Puzzlepages section.
