The Dolch word list is commonly used when teaching children sight words. Sight words are high-frequency words that should be memorized and easily recognized without having to sound-out.
Below are the Pre-primer words. Pre-primer: a, and, away, big, blue, can, come, down, find, for,
funny, go, help, here, I, in, is, it, jump, little, look, make, me, my,
not, one, play, red, run, said, see, the, three, to, two, up, we, where,
yellow, you

After watching cool videos of YouTubers making awesome MLPs, I was super excited to get this set and try it out for myself. This set came with a lot of accessories. 4 pony molds, 1 book mold, 1 accessories mold plate and 9 tubs of play doh. Each of the pony molds also had 2 stamps on the bottom to make cutie marks. Plenty to make lots of little ponies! Although with 4 pony molds, I thought it would've been nice to include a 4th large tub to make 4 ponies at once instead of just 3.
The hardest part for me was filling out the eyes in the mold. It's hard to get that tiny lump of play doh into the exact spot. Especially that spot of white in the middle of the eye. I think next time I might just do the eye after molding the pony.
The hair was also a little tough. The extruder generated very nice stands of hair, but all the segments were connected and I had to cut it to separate them. Maybe I'm just doing it wrong.
My favorite part of this set is the book mold, there is something satisfying about filling up a mold with lumps of play-doh, close it, squish, and then open to reveal a beautifully formed pony.
I purchased mine from Kohls, but you can get yours at Amazon
Take a look at my ponies and let me know if you want to see me build more!
This is a fun balancing game for todders and preschoolers, although older kids and adults also find it to be a lot of fun. The pieces are made from bamboo and the perfect size for small hands to grasp.
The idea of the game is to take turns placing pieces on the ship in such a manner that it doesn't tip. The 'loser' is the person who tips the ship with his/her piece.
My kids actually enjoy loading the pieces on the ship and then put something very heavy in order to see it all come crashing down.
I've seen this game at Marbles the Brain Store but purchased mine at Amazon.
This Lalaloopsy Gel Sticker play set features Bea Spells-a-Lot who is the smartest and most well-read girl in Lalaloopsy Land.
The gel sticker set sticks to smooth surfaces like the storage tin it comes with and windows and mirros. It is not sticky so taking it off is super easy and won't leave residue.
Stickers include Bea in two different poses, her pink pet owl, stop signs, trees, apples and other schoolhouse accessories.
The storage tin is also a play scene featuring a school house. Use the stickers to create cute scenes. You can also use stickers from other sets to play and interact with each other characters.
There is another set featuring Crumbs Sugar Cookie that I saw at my local Target, Amazon also sells it but you can't select the set you want.
