The stickers tie in to the activities, making the experience more tactile for the child.
For example, an activity will ask a child to identify the color yellow, then to pick which object to color yellow, and explain why.
The activities become progressively more complex according to the three stages of a child\'s learning: getting to know the material through sensory experience, recognizing the material, and being able to explain the material.
Each activity, be it choosing the correct color to fill in a picture, finding the hidden triangle, or helping a squirrel count his acorns, stimulates learning through play and enhances the child\'s cognitive development.
This engaging book--with 24 pages of stickers--focuses on three main early-learning concepts: colors, numbers, and shapes.
This method of educating children has been widely implemented around the world, in preschools and beyond.
