5 - 6 years old. Kindergarten is a big milestone, and having a strong foundation can help children feel more confident and prepared from day one. This backpack is filled with engaging, play-based activities designed to build important early learning skills. Children will practice recognizing most letters, learning beginning letter sounds, writing their name, counting to 20 and recognizing numbers, and beginning to blend sounds as they build early reading readiness skills. Inside the backpack, you'll find a back with a fidget keychain, a whiteboard and marker, a learning guide, the Alphabet Arc Fidget, Word Pop! game, and Rocket Race math game. The included learning guide makes it easy to get started with simple, step-by-step activities that take the guesswork out of learning through play.
