Touch and learn. Practice counting one to ten with this new addition to the Montessori-inspired Discovery Concepts series. The enhanced board book uses sandpaper dots and an increasing number of adorable sea creatures to help young readers count up to ten. One-of-a-kind colorful illustrations, sturdy board pages, and no moveable parts make this a unique addition to an early learning collection. About the Discovery Concepts series: Discovery Concepts books celebrate Montessori’s curious discovery approach to learning. Maria Montessori believed “the hand is the chief teacher of the brain,” encouraging students to learn by touch and created specially designed materials such as sandpaper letters to support this method. Inspired by her teachings, each book in the Discovery Concepts board book collection uses tactile enhancements to engage young children in discovering the topic at hand. Beyond the tactile elements each title is designed to capture a child’s imagination and curiosity as they learn.
I love Katie Wilson's illustrations, but this wasn't my favorite of her books. Specifically the massive numbers in standard font seem at odds with the hand-drawn text.
I really like the little circles on each page that you can count with young readers.
