imageBecause I use My Father’s Word for our curriculum, I am VERY familiar with how awesome Usborne Books are! So, I was VERY excited when Jade Clark, Usborne Books & More Independent Consultant from www.HeyJadeBooks.com contacted me about reviewing some Usborne products AND hosting both an eShow and giveaway!

If you are not familiar with Usborne books, I would highly suggest that you take a look at all they have to offer! Just browsing through the Usborne catalog gets me all giddy inside! There are so many wonderful books to choose from! Can you tell that I am already starting to plan for Christmas gifts?!?!  {wink, wink}

Here are just a few of the Usborne books that we already own and love!

imageimageimageimageimageimageimageimage

Now, thanks to Jade, we have added two more Usborne products to our family library! First, we received the super cute Getting Dressed Sticker Book!

image

My kids LOVED playing with this sticker book! Initially I just had my preschoolers in mind. However, ALL five of my kids begged to be able to use the sticker book! As my little boys dressed the dolls, we discussed what clothing was appropriate for each of the children. Then, they worked on  those fine motor skills by removing the stickers and dressing the dolls. I was surprised by how meticulous they were about getting the clothes on just right!

062

My little guys only wanted to dress the boys. So, my almost 8 year old daughter happily dressed all of the girls! I think begging would be a more appropriate word! She LOVED the sticker book…maybe even more than my little guys!

069

We also received the Addition Learning Wrap-ups. These provide a unique, hands-on, self-correcting way to work on addition facts!

image

My kids LOVE using these! They are a fun alternative to flash cards! You perform the addition problem and use the string to wrap around the key to match the correct answer.

135

Once you have completed all the addition problems on the key, you put the string in the bottom notch and flip it over to check your answers. The string should match up with the lines on the back.

138

I often find my boys in our favorite comfy spot with their Wrap-up in hand!

134

Needless to say, we love Usborne products and love adding them to our family library! Here are some other books that I have my eye on:

imageimageimage

I think the Around the World Sticker Dolly Dressing would be a fun supplement to our world studies this year! After seeing how much she enjoyed the little boys sticker book, I just KNOW my daughter would L.O.V.E. this one! I think the Anna Hibiscus books would be a fun addition to our “Brown Like Me” Books and the Art Treasury would be a great way to add some art appreciate and projects to our studies! Oh, so many great books to choose from!

Now, on to the really fun parts! I am excited to be able to host BOTH a giveaway AND an eShow! First the giveaway…

    HI Kathleen! We haven’t had any troubles using them. I did have to remind my kids that they must always begin on the left side and move down in order. For example, they can’t skip around and just solve whichever problem they want. They have to start at the first # on the left side and continue down until complete. I have actually gone through and done most of them myself and all of the lines and strings have matched up. It doesn’t appear that any of the numbers repeat or are used twice.

    I saw the Wrap Ups at my local Lakeshore Learning Store and tried out the one they had on display. Even after reading the instructions on the package I had trouble figuring it out. If I remember correctly, the trouble was that some numbers were repeated and/or needed to be used twice. So that when I flipped it over at the end, the string didn’t match up with the pattern on the back. Then I tried wrapping while looking at the answer side and then flipping it over to check the math, but that didn’t get me the correct answers either. I couldn’t figure out how to get the math to match the string pattern on the back. So I figured if I, an adult, found it confusing, then my kids probably would too. Did you have any sort of learning curve trying to use these?
