Learning With Dover

One way I enrich our studies is the use of Dover coloring books. We are blessed to have a bookstore in the next town that carries a large selection of Dover books in-store. When I search my shelves for a certain historical time period, science topic, or famous person and don't find a corresponding Dover, I head out and get one. They make our studies so much more interesting! I like to let the kids color while I read the related story. It helps my kinestetic learners stay tuned in.

  1. We love our Dover colouring books, too. Another useful supplement are the Usborne (or Costco) sticker books. They come in all sorts of topics. I have a few that like books and stickers, but don't like to colour.
