A fun, step-by-step, easy to follow program to help children develop age appropriate self-care, play and school related skills that can take less than an hour a day for 10 "school" days...

Are You Too Busy? We know you sometimes can't find an hour or so a day to spare, so we divided the program into approximately 15 minute sections on Gross Motor, Fine Motor, Visual Perception and School Skills. Simply complete as much as you can then do more when you have time..the program is designed to be fun for everyone!

Especially for preschool and kindergarten children the program, has been developed early childhood experts - Preschool Teachers, Kindergarten Teachers, Pediatric Occupational Therapists & Parents - to help your child develop age-appropriate self-care, play and school related skills.

The ideal age to start the program is when your child is about 4 but it can also be a great help for kindergarten children who have begun school but still need some extra help with their skills. The program caters for children with varying needs - from those who simply need their skills refined before school entry to those children who are having difficulty developing the necessary skills.

Great value with over 200 preschool activities including comprehensive worksheets and games in an easy to follow pdf format that is personalized for your child!

Each activity is designed to teach critical school skills in a fun, relaxed way with activities focusing on gross motor skills, fine motor skills, visual perception, following directions and specific school skills like tying shoelaces, managing clothing, opening containers - see our School Skills page for a more detailed explanation of these skills.

Advanced - Get Ready For School
goes to the

Eveyone had such a great time with our Get Ready For School program we were often asked to design a follow up program - so here it is Get Ready For School At the Zoo!

Like Get Ready For School, the Advanced Program is also broken down into a sequential 10 day course teaching these skills in a fun, relaxed way. Each 1 hour (or "day") contains a series of lessons which focus on your child writing the alphabet and numbers from 1-10, providing visual and verbal strategies to help kids learn to form letters correctly. Some simple mathematics, drawing shapes, cutting out neatly and more animal fun jumping, hopping & skipping.

Still Too Busy? We know how hard it is to dedicate a spare hour, so each "school day" is divided into 4 sections - Gross Motor, Fine Motor, Letter Formation & Practice Corner - taking about 15 minutes each. Simply complete as much as you can then do more when you have time....the programs are designed to be educational and fun for carers and children!

The lessons have a good balance between physical and intellectual activities, and, over 200 activities including a Zoo Star Chart, Encouragement Awards and exercises in an easy to follow pdf format, personalized for your child!
