ABCs and 123s eBook
I absolutely adore this eBook. Yes, I’m a little biased since I worked together with other parents and teachers to create it. That doesn’t mean it isn’t amazing in its own right, of course! ABCs and 123s is full of 40+ kids’ hands-on activities for learning the alphabet and numbers. Each activity is kid-approved and geared towards children ages 2 to 8. Read more about the eBook now.

I’m trying to download the magnetic sorting letter sheets. However I can’t find them……sure it’s because I haven’t had enough coffee today. Can you guide me?
No worries, I completely understand. I need to come back and add a “download” button to the post. Right now, click on the highlighted text that says “5 free printable sorting mats you can grab” underneath the photo of my old white board with yellow and green letters.
