Gnomes School 0-1 Year Course by Daria Denisova
A Mixed Bag for My Little One
summarizeEditor's Summary
I got the 'School of Seven Bells 0+' book set for my kid when he was five months old, but he wasn't really into it. He was in a teething phase and loved putting everything in his mouth, so the books collected dust for a while. It wasn't until he turned one that he finally started enjoying the series. Now we're using them, but it's been a mixed bag ever since. I'm not sure if my kid is just a bit behind or if other kids are naturally more advanced. The books are colorful and engaging, but some concepts are a bit too advanced for my kid's age group. I wish they had more interactive elements, like flaps or buttons to press. Overall, the books are sturdy and well-made, but they're a bit pricey.
