Review: The Best Screen Free Activity for my toddler :) Review: The best of the workbooks! - By now I bought 17 workbooks, and I consider Gakken the best ones. PROS:The layout of exercises is perfect, it is not monotonous and the tasks keep switching with every page ( versus having 20 pages straight dedicated to one single skill), which is awesome if your child gets bored quickly. All the pages resemble a game rather than a class setup, so your child will not feel pressured into doing “boring stuff” either. It is so entertaining, that my son (he is under 3), finishes it in a day. Tasks are educational as well, you have mazes, tracing, looking for hidden pictures, matching shapes, even creative challenges- use a shape to draw something. The only con I see here is getting broke on all this workbooks:) Definitely recommend!

My 4 yo loved it!
My son loved this activity book, he finished it in just a few nights! I felt it was a tad easy on some of the exercises but that's because he is 4. But he enjoyed it very much. I will try the next level books next time.

Positive Engagement!
4/5 simply because I don't have anything to compare to! My son is 4yr and had was very engaged with Brain Booster for the whole hour we worked on it. I'm excited to add this to our daily routine!

Great book for 3-4 y.o.
My now 4yo loved this book and completed multiple pages per day. I like the quality of paper (thick enough), colors, size of activities, and the fact that activities are getting gradually harder, but not too much. Some activities can show the parent/caregiver what might be not so easy for the child and where they can put more additional effort.

Kept 2 year old entertained
Its well made, it feels as though my 2 year old is actually learning from using it. Some of the activities are a bit repetitive but overall I think its great, kept my son entertained.
