good for 2 year old (very close supervision) . My 25 month old daughter loves this kit. We skipped the Grasshopper 1&2 for several reasons (if there were lowercase letters on the "fish" I would have still bought it to use as letter sound reinforcement). So I looked at the 3rd kit and decided to try it.We have used the stampers, mini crayons, and the frog with the bugs. She LOVES them.Really, asks for the frog daily. She is able to do it as the frog is not too difficult for her to squeeze. The bugs are so cute too. I place her hands on the frog to be sure she can squeeze effectively then she does it alone - while I am watching to make sure a bug doesn't go in the wrong mouth :)The stampers are great with their supplied dough (odd consistency with a scent) or with our homemade play-dough, we use them on both. She holds the stampers as suggested in the suppled resource book for parents (I placed her fingers the first time).The mini crayons are like broken crayons but the great thing is that every one has a point (unlike when you use broken crayons). They force correct finger placement... though my daughter initially found a way to not use the correct placement, once I showed her how to hold it she used them correctly.Also included in the kit are cute reusable (seem durable) stickers and a background scene (We use regular stickers on paper taped to an easel for the same effect but I don't think she is quite ready to make the "scene"). Pealing off and placing stickers on an upright surface apparently helps reinforce and work writing muscles in the fingers.HINT: The Grasshopper website has other ideas/ways you can make supplies and use these supplies.
One of the ideas they suggested was using liquid glue on easy coloring pages to trace the lines (an adult does this) then once it is dry, the children will have a "bumper" to help with coloring in the lines.Reminder: The kit is designed for children over 3, you know your child and if they still put things in their mouth (this kit would not work for an oral child). I also watch her carefully while she is using the materials just in case.I am thinking about buying kit 4!
