Activity Books Under $3 for Early Learners

If you have a child in preschool or kindergarten, you're probably looking for ways to boost their learning skills and keep them engaged with educational activities. 

The Little Skill Seekers activity books are a key way to advance your child's early learning skills and set them up for success. This is a series of educational workbooks for kids ages 3 to 6 that focuses on the building blocks of early literacy and math skills. The books cover everything from counting and writing letters to matching, sorting, and letter sounds.

In Little Skill Seekers: Alphabet Connect the Dots, kids work their way through different picture exercises to build hand-eye coordination and fine motor skills, starting with connecting dots in alphabetical order to reveal the picture and then coloring it in. As your child progresses through the activities, they’ll develop and sharpen their dexterity as well as their confidence in alphabetic sequencing and real-world connections.

Your child will feel a huge sense of accomplishment every time they finish an exercise, and you'll love watching them eagerly flip the pages to tackle the next activity.

Then, the Little Skill Seekers: Beginning Sounds book offers a stellar introduction to these skills that helps kids practice through picture games and basic spelling exercises. After all, one of the first stops on the bridge to reading is learning letter sounds.

Through completing them, kids increase their alphabet recognition and further develop their phonemic awareness, or the ability to hear, identify, and manipulate individual sounds in spoken words. The pictures are bright and colorful, the directions are simple, and the book is designed to let kids work at their own pace while growing their skills.
