I'm wondering if anyone has used this program & if you have any tips for me. Are there any activities that you recommend over the others? I ended up with a mixture of the preschool & kindy stuff, although I only have the kindy teacher's book, so I'm a little unsure of where to start. I have a pic of all of the stuff I have to use at the link below.

I have the play-dough set, the stamp and see screen, the pre-k workbook, box of flip crayons, and the kindergarten book. I did the pre-k book with my 4 year old. He flew right through it. We just did either a play-dough letter or used the stamp and see screen for each new letter we did. (I don't have a teacher's manual). Right now, he is going through the kindergarten book, he's about halfway through (about to start lowercase letters), and I'd say it's exactly right on track with where he is.
I plan to buy the CD (unless you come tell me it isn't worth it
), and a new pre-k book to start with my daughter. She's young (18 months), but LOVES to write. Still, we will probably just do the first pages (strokes and color with different colors) until she's ready to move to the letters. Which may be a while, I just want to be ready for when she is. Lol.
I'm interested to hear if you think the wood pieces are worth the extra cost with the stamp and see screen. My son did fine with just one, but I'll be starting younger with my daughter.
