Activity Books

Meet the Scribble Monsters - Inky, Blot, HB, Pablo and His Nibs. These playful and inquisitive characters will guide the user through the fun pre-school activities, encouraging them to draw on, colour in, paint and decorate the books. The fun activities in each title will aid in the development of a range of vital skills from manual dexterity and hand-eye coordination to creativity, imagination, confidence and self-esteem. At the same time our young readers will be exploring early language skills, numeracy and the understanding of concepts such as colour, shape, size and pattern. In Tracing, practising holding a pencil, keeping a steady hand and following a path on the page will develop vital motor skills and concentration. Learning to trace shapes plays a big role in retaining new concepts.
