2.0 out of 5 stars
Outdated; Appropriate for first/second grades, not Kinder.,
This review is from: Fresh & Fun: Teaching With Kids' Names (Grades K-2) (Paperback)
I thought the ideas were outdated and skimpy. There was not a variety of ideas presented in the book. I would not recommend it. You could get more ideas Googling: Kindergarten activities, names. Or you own grade level.
