Laurie Carlson

Williamson Publishing Company, 1992

Laurie Carlson is Outstanding
I have just entered the field of preschool and was disappointed in the books for activities until I found Carlson. Her book isn't full of kiddie graphics as if the kids were reading, her instructions are clear and careful. This book is fun because it gives so many ideas of using things around the house. I liked this book so much that I bought 50 to give to preschool teachers coming to a ...

The Exploratorium

Little, Brown Young Readers, 2006

Another good book from the Exporatorium
Most of the Exploratorium books that I have purchased have been activity-based, so they're great for grown-ups (teachers, parents, etc.) who want to lead kids in discovery as well as for the kids who want to try things out for themselves. As a science instructor for elementary-aged students (pre-K through 5th grade), there are several of the activities in this book that I am going to use for my ...

Pamela Compart, Dana Laake

Fair Winds Press, 2006

BEST COOKBOOK YET!
We have been on a GFCF diet for six months. I am always looking for new recipes. I wish this was the first cookbook I had purchased because I would have saved myself a lot of money and wasted ingredients by not having to purchase the other not-so-good cookbooks. This cookbook has a wonderful variety of recipes and lots of helpful hints and tips. You will not regret this purchase!

A fountain of ideas that will turn into a strong referene guide for you
The Green Parent is a very valuable resource for any parent that even remotely cares about raising a family with an eye towards sustainability and environmental responsibility. Aside from the fundamental purpose of the book, the Green Parent is a great book for a few reasons. For starters, the book is well researched. There's no fluff. Secondly, it's a very practical book. And that's probably its ...

The LEGO MINDSTORMS NXT Zoo!: A Kid-Friendly Guide to Building Animals with the NXT Robotics System

A personal Lego Mindstorms NXT Zoo review
Hi everyone, I received this book last week Monday. When I bought this book, I was very sceptical about this book because a peacock on wheels on the cover was a little strange. But I also build a Giraffe with a fifth middle leg based on the book from Benjamin Erwin "Creative Projects with Lego Mindstorms (RIS kit)" which seems also unusual at that time. Also the book of Benjamin Erwin is also ...

Chinese Flash Cards: Kid-friendly Cards Build Chinese Vocabulary (Berlitz Kids Flash Cards)

2 reviews
Inc. Berlitz International

Berlitz Kids, 2006

Not a bad product
I think this set of flash cards are good enough for learning Mandarin as second language. No flash cards can serve all the purposes. This product obvious is designed for either bilingual kids or second language kids. By the way, the Chinese character on the "tomato" flash card is what most mainland Chinese people would call. Tomato is also called "Fan Qie" by Chinese people in some other areas ...

Finally a kids cookbook that I can use
I've been going to the library and getting all kinds of children's cookbooks to test before I buy, because I have four little "helpers" that always want to be in the kitchen. This is the first book I've come accross with great pictures AND great, unique, yet kid-friendly recipes. For example, there are mini bagel balls, which were great and very hands-on for the kids (although the recipe calls ...

Great Hiking Guide to Maine
I'm a native of Portland, and my friend (who's not originally from Maine) and I found this guide really helpful. Though I know the state well, I don't know all the little things about certain trails, such as whether certain trails allow dogs (important to my friend) or where a good place is to park the car (important to me, since I'm the one driving the two of us to these places). This guide ...
