Curriculum Description (from publisher)
Each rule is presented in a full-page cartoon picture for young children to color as you teach each rule. Easy teaching instructions are included too.

Our Review
I absolutely love this book! I have used it time and time again!
With our little ones, usually around ages 3-5, we focus on one rule a week at the start of school. We introduce the rule and show the picture from the book. I either make a copy of this page for the kids to color, or we color our own picture. Then we work on memorizing the rule.
UPDATE 2018: Still using over and over again. If I had a dime for every time I said…. “We do not create unnecessary work for others” I’d be rich.
