Educational Insights Hot Dots Let's Master Preschool Math Set, 100 Counting & Numbers & More, Ages 4+

Made very well. Easy to operate. My 4 year old grandson love learning with this and the talking pen that tells him what a good job he is doing when he gets it right. Perfect learning tool.

My grandson and I enjoyed doing this. He is 3 1/2 years old and loved it because he could hear Ace talk when he got it right. Very inventive for kids to learn.

My grandson is 2 1/2 and I purchased the Phonics, PreK Math and Reading Kits. I wasn't sure he was old enough yet, or would be interested at all, but thought we would try them as playing cars and trucks on a daily basis gets old for Grammy fast. He is a slow talker, but his motor skills are keen, so he was able to hold dog pen straight up and pin point the black dot he chose for his answers. At first he was mostly interested in touching every dot with the pen,But when hearing the dog speak, bark, and carry on he waas correct with answer delighted and got the idea. Because I hope he finds learning fun, we don't use these books and flash cards unless he request, as he is so young. His favorite is the math pre K espically the time story sequence. These are a great addition to supervised playtime for parents and caregivers, I am very pleased with my purchase.

I have struggled for months to teach my daughter the alphabet and entice her to learn. Luckily, that all changed when this Hot Dots set arrived! She immediately took to it and went through both books in the first sitting. She continues to ask for these books and loves to go through them. I love watching her improve and FINALLY enjoying learning!

I have 5 year old twin boy and we own a few other Hot Dots Jr sets but this one seems to be their favorite! The interactive pen, "Ace", is adorable. My kids love using him! And he can be used with the other sets too, which is great! (Although "Ollie" the talking Owl is another adorable pen that comes with the other sets, making the choice of which to use quite difficult for a child. Ha!) I am very pleased with the quality of the box. It is very durable and has a strong handle allowing it to be carried and stacked by the kiddos without getting easily destroyed. The two spiral bound books are also durable and laminated. They are very nicely laid out with colorful pages and just the right amount of content on each page. My kids have enjoyed working through the pages of both books. I really like how the books progress in skills. It allows my boys to have fun while learning but also challenges them without getting frustrated. Because of their age and their lack of ability to read the instructions themselves, I did have to guide them through the activities the first few times that they used the books. In my opinion, it was just another way for me to monitor what they could do and keep track of their progress.

Hot Dot Jr. Let's Master Kindergarten Math set is a great way to get your little one excited about learning math skills. The skills this set focus's on is counting/numbers, patterns, time, shapes/geometry, fractions, measurements, math facts and money. The set includes 2 book that contain 85 Interactive lessons, 15 advanced lessons and "ACE" the talking teaching Dog pen. The pen helps children to gain confidence with every right answer and redirection with every missed answer. When three correct answers in a row are given "ACE" vibrates which gets your little one excited to keep getting answers correctly helping to educate each step of the way. I received this product for review all opinions are 100% mine.

My girls are loving the Hot Dots Jr. sets! We have the Pre-K Reading and Math and I already know we will be buying the more advanced levels when they are ready! My girls are 3 1/2 and almost 2, so we will be using these sets to keep them up to speed (or ahead) for school. Pros: The activities seem pretty on target in this one for the Pre-K level. The spiral binding on the book was a amazing idea and the fun, colorful pictures keep them entertained. They love the puppy pens! It is so cool that it tells you if you are right or wrong, but also his eyes light up red or green, which they think is awesome. The activities seem pretty on target in this one for the Pre-K level. Many fun activities for them to do. I hear Ace barking away right now! Cons: Well I thought I was going to have to put that the pen is a "boy" pen and they would love to have a "girl" one...but then I saw that you can purchase Kat, a purple cat pen, or there is a fairy tale set that comes with a wand...so I guess I will put that as half a con since I will probably need to make another purchase. :) I would say that the price seems a little bit high, but I know we will get a lot of use out of them as long as the pens keep working! It needs an On/Off switch.

My 4 yr old Grandson loves it

I purchased 2 packs, one for reading the other for math. My kid really loves it BUT book 2 in the reading pack is malfunctioning (from first use) it says its incorrect when in fact the answer is correct and with the math package book 1 was malfunctioning also from first use with same issues.

We just opened this after being a reward for using the potty. The pen keeps giving an incorrect sound/phrase no matter which dot you touch. Not a good sign for this company's products as this is the first we have purchased.
