Good transition activity
Easy self correct book. Engaged my child when tv time was over. I consider it a transition activity as it hold her attention for 10 to 15mins at a time. Love that you can mute the sound. Pages are sturdy and difficult to rip.

4 year old tested and approved :)
Pros:Great images in the bookAdorable pen "Ace" who your child will loveEasy to follow instructionsCons:The Pen does not read the instructionsIf your child does not hit the dots in the middle ( if they just hit the outer edge) it will tell them it is wrong even if it is correct.My four year old really loves this, and I think most children would. I would recommend it for anyone with children who are in the 3-5 range, although five may be pushing it. My daughter found most of the content from the first book easy, the second book was a bit of a challenge. I appreciate that it has a nice range between difficult and easy content; because I don't want my daughter to feel discouraged, but I do want her to learn new things which is why I bought this in the first place.

Interactive and Engaging
The media could not be loaded. These Hot Dots preschool books are a fantastic learning tool for young kids. The interactive pen makes it fun to practice early skills, and my child stays engaged longer than with regular workbooks. Great for building confidence and independence!

Hot Dots with regular pen, not the Jr version with dog pen
Item is similar to the one shown in the photo, was hoping for the dog pen for my son but got the generic pen instead

Low sound
Overall great product. Has sequencing, color matching, letters, etc. I would suggest placing the sound buttons in the back instead of the collar because they’re easily to touch causing the sound to go off and also the sound is low maybe it can be a little louder. My son just turned 3 and he loves it.
