Kumon workbooks



For Alex’s third b-day Elexa sent him some Kumon First Steps workbooks. They are wonderful. Now that Sabrina is three she is doing them. There are some that Alex didn’t do and some new ones that came out after he was older. Alex and Sabrina are doing some of those together.

He’s seven and they are for younger kids. True, but they are a good review of some skills he doesn’t use too often and they help solve another problem. Most of Alex’s school is on the computer or independent study. He was jealous that I was spending more time with Sabrina. Most of their school is still done separately, of course, but now I get to spend time with both of them working on the same thing at the same time.

This has worked out beautifully and they actually encourage and help each other. They LOVE doing this and both kids ask to do the workbooks every day, (sometimes more than once).
