Eight In A Row

Play Tip!

Before a child can learn to read, there are essential "prereading" skills that a child must master. Three of the most important are sequencing, left right progression, and time progression. (before and after) All can be explored and practised with Eight In A Row. The puzzles show scenes that are familiar to most children. There is a child making a painting and a child getting up in the morning. Each piece has only one place to fit it onto the next piece, so children with delayed fine motor skills can usually manage the puzzle-fitting with a minimum of frustration. Eight In A Row is made of heavy-duty coated cardboard stock.
