The parent guide “Fifteen Minutes at the Table” is in the bundle — $14.99 on its own.
Ten phonics sound groups, in the order a child can actually build words from. By the end of the first part your child reads real words, not memorised shapes.
First the hand gets warm, then the alphabet — capital and small, one letter at a time, with the strokes numbered in the order they are written.
Count them, write them, compare them, put them in order — with fingers, ten-frames and tally marks, so a number stops being a symbol and becomes a quantity.
Plus and minus to twenty, then missing numbers and number stories. What is taken away is crossed out, not rubbed out — so a child sees subtraction happen.
Patterns, sharp eyes, sequences, matching and mazes — ten missions in ten worlds, each ending with a reward badge.
Level two: matrices where colour and shape both change, mirrors, logic grids and secret codes — with the solutions explained for grown-ups.
A guide for parents, not a workbook for children: how to teach your 5-to-8-year-old at home without it turning into a fight.
No printer needed: the sheets can be filled in on a tablet in any PDF app. And if you would rather print, you can print them as often as you like.
Print at actual size — 100 %, never “fit to page”, or the handwriting lines come out slightly too small. The English and Spanish workbooks come as A4 and US Letter; take the one your printer uses. The other languages are A4 only.
The six workbooks cover ages 5 to 8. Reading Adventures, Writing Adventures, Math Adventures 1 and Logic Adventures 1 are written for 5 to 6, Math Adventures 2 for 6 to 7, and Logic Adventures 2 for 7 to 8.
PDF files you download and print yourself. Nothing is posted to you. The files arrive by email the moment you pay, and appear on screen as well.
The workbooks are digital files you can open the moment you pay, so all sales are final. But if something is actually wrong — a file that will not open, the wrong language, missing or blank pages — write to us within 30 days and we will send you a working file. If we cannot fix it, you get your money back.
Somewhere between five and eight, a child works out that letters make sounds, that sounds make words, and that numbers stand for real things you can count on your hand. It’s the biggest leap they’ll ever make.
Children who get there feeling capable tend to stay feeling capable. Not because they’re cleverer than anyone else, but because a child who has already worked something out believes they can work the next thing out too. Confidence at this age compounds quietly, year after year.
That’s all these workbooks are for. Not to push your child ahead of anyone. Just to make sure that when the classroom asks, they already know the feeling of getting there on their own.
