For Zoey & Sassafras Dragons & Marshmallows Book Companion Lapbook & Bingo Game
September 13, 2025I love doing lap books with my students so I of course had to purchase this one. I really like that the characters are present to be colored and added to the lap book and the bingo was a nice added touch. I would have liked some more ideas for the blank writing pages and I did feel it was a bit on the expensive side, but overall this is a resource I would purchase again.

For Trace, Write & Draw Minecraft Printable: Handwriting & Spelling Practice
April 15, 2025I bought this to use with one of my students with complex needs. He is a very strong student, however, he needed additional support with his printing. We bought this to hopefully engage him in extra printing practice and he loves it!! This has become one of his favourite parts of the day!! He often will trace the first sentence and then come up with an expanding idea to print neatly on the extra lines.

This makes me so very happy! Thank you so much for sharing and for the incredibly important job you do every day. You are appreciated.

- I am a bestselling author of multiple books created for children of all abilities that teach safety skills. My books have been endorsed by Safe and Sound Schools and Safe Havens International, the largest school safety organization in the world. My books are carried in school curriculums across the globe, and several have been recognized as one of the top 50 all-time best school safety books of all time. As an educator, my most amazing moment has been working with my three neurodiverse young children as a homeschool educator and learning what adaptions work best for each of them, how they each learn, and what they need to be successful as they grow.
