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.
