Active child product recommendation
It is no secret that Trey is an active child. He is even active in activities that normally wouldn't be considered active. Such as coloring.
Unless there is only one sheet of paper available, Trey is not satisfied with coloring a single picture. If we have a coloring book, he starts at the beginning, colors a little on that page, then turns the page and so on. Maximum of 10 seconds per page.
I was looking for educational, sit-still things to get Trey for Christmas, and came across this book on Amazon.com.
It is a wipe-clean book with a dry erase marker. The pages wipe off with a rag, paper towel, or tissue.
Trey loves this book. I mean, loves it. It is perfect for how he likes to color. He gets such a kick out of flipping pages, scribbling a little, then "Keen dis!" (clean this). He will sit still and play with this thing for at least half an hour.
He can't yet use the book for its original purpose - learning to write letters and numbers, trace animal shapes, and draw the hands on a clock. But it is helping him start to recognize lowercase letters, and we will grow into the other stuff soon enough.
So anyway, if you have an active child, I cannot recommend this highly enough. Amazon.com. Wipe-clean book.
