Looking for quick, engaging activities to prepare your child for kindergarten? Spend a few minutes a day with your child in productive, interactive play with Slow and Steady Get Me Ready For Kindergarten!
Slow and Steady Get Me Ready For Kindergarten abounds with hands-on developmental activities that parents can do with their children between the ages of 0 and 5 years old to get them prepared for kindergarten. June R. Oberlander, a 19-year veteran kindergarten teacher in Fairfax County, Virginia, first published this book in 1988. Now her granddaughter, Hannah Oberlander, a current teacher in Loudoun County, Virginia, has updated and enhanced these classic activities for todays parents of the next generation.
Organized in an easy-to-read format, these mini lessons prompt moms, dads, grandparents, caretakers, and guardians to play short, practical games with their children with step-by-step instructions, tips, and photos to guide them along the way. Activities are sorted for each age group between birth and kindergarten. Not only do they give a ballpark idea of how your child is developing, but also what activities and tasks he or she is currently ready for and what to be working towards over the weeks. Each activity has a box that clues parents in to which skills they are developing with their child. In addition, book ideas are referenced for each activity throughout Ages 3 and 4 to promote pre-reading skills and motivation.
Slow and Steady Get Me Ready is like no other guide to developmental play ideas for todays child. These activities are tried and true to engage your youngster for specific purposes that will enrich his or her physical and mental growth during these crucial years of a childs life. No iPod app or electronic resource can replace a parents face-to-face interaction with his or her child. Recognizing that time in every home is always scarce, these quick and simple activities foster parent-child contact that is not only constructive but also meaningful.
Standards for kindergarten entrance and placement have risen over the past thirty years. Educators and experts have concluded that early and consistent stimulation before entering school is essential to a childs development. Thus, its more important than ever before for parents and caretakers of young children to promote early development through motor skills, communication, and cognitive learning. Slow and Steady Get Me Ready For Kindergarten is just the tool! The most-rewarding job in the world is parenting, so why not get off on the right foot?

The book has a ton of ideas, but I found that some activities weren't as engaging as I hoped. My 3-year-old got bored with a few of them. Still, I appreciate the variety it offers for different ages!

Great resource for early learners!
I bought this for my 4-year-old to help him get ready for kindergarten, and it’s been a blast! The 260 activities are super engaging, and they really cover a wide age range. Definitely worth it for parents looking to boost their child's prep!

Not enough structure for me
While I admire the variety of activities, I found the book lacks a bit of structure. It would be nice to have some sort of guide on which activities are best for each age. Still, there are some gems in there!

Perfect for hands-on learning
This is such a cool guide! My 2-year-old loves the hands-on activities, and it’s nice to see her learning through play. The book’s used condition was great, no missing pages at all. I’m really happy with my purchase!
