Time orders our lives and helps us function within a daily schedule. The concept of time is often difficult for children to understand because it is very abstract. As children develop daily routines and experience the world around them, the concept of time becomes more engrained in their everyday lives. This book is designed to help your child develop an awareness of time. It provides activities that focus on parts of the day, duration of time, telling time, and time vocabulary.

Upon your childs completion of each activity, use the provided incentive chart and stickers to track progress and celebrate your childs success.

Whether students need extra practice with grade-level skills or a head start on next year, Stick Kids® Workbooks offer engaging activities, games, and puzzles that help make learning lots of fun. Each 56-page book features full-color activities, a list of the skills, and an explanation of why those skills are important for development. Also included are helpful tips, an answer key, a handy tracking sheet, stickers for acknowledging achievements, and appearances by the lovable Stick Kids!

These right-sized (7 x 9) skill practice workbooks are perfect for use at school, or as entertaining activities on the go. Tuck them into a backpack, purse, or travel bag. Great for school breaks, vacations, and year-long practice.
