If your child is anything like ours, she loves your smartphone, tablet and laptop because of their relatively small sizes, accessibility and interactive content. We believe that technology is a tool that is neither inherently good nor bad. Instead of constantly telling her “no” or “you can’t touch that,” my husband and I decided to grant her limited, structured and supervised access to a family device. How cool, we thought, would it be to create our own curriculum to teach her several things: 1) fundamental words and concepts; 2) smartphones, tablets and laptops can be used to create content to help others; 3) she has choices in the digital content that she consumes on these devices; 4) repetition breeds routine and 5) she can have fun doing it all!
We hope you leverage this book to build up your child in any of these ways and more. By design, there are very few words in this book, which leaves plenty of space for you to make your child’s learning experience uniquely engaging. Happy learning!
