Awalnya saya pikir ini akan seperti kursus persiapan sekolah pada umumnya, tapi ternyata pendekatannya cukup berbeda dan lebih santai. Penjelasan tentang cara membangun konsentrasi anak sebelum masuk ke latihan membaca dan berhitung sangat masuk akal, karena selama ini saya langsung memaksa anak belajar tanpa membangun fondasi fokus dulu. Contoh permainan yang diberikan mudah ditiru dan anak saya justru minta diulang beberapa kali. Saya juga suka karena materinya tidak terlalu panjang sehingga tidak melelahkan untuk ditonton di sela kesibukan mengurus anak. Setelah rutin menerapkan beberapa aktivitas selama sebulan, anak saya jadi lebih percaya diri saat diminta menghitung benda di sekitar rumah. Panduan yang praktis dan realistis untuk orang tua yang baru pertama kali menyiapkan anak masuk sekolah.

Clear, age-appropriate activities that made teaching my daughter to focus and count feel a lot less like a battle.

Sebagai orang tua yang agak khawatir anak belum siap masuk sekolah dasar, kursus ini benar-benar membantu saya menyusun rutinitas belajar di rumah. Materinya membahas cara mengenalkan membaca dan berhitung dengan cara yang menyenangkan, bukan sekadar drilling angka dan huruf. Bagian tentang melatih fokus anak usia 5-7 tahun sangat relevan karena anak saya memang mudah teralihkan perhatiannya. Saya suka karena setiap aktivitas dijelaskan langkah demi langkah dan bisa langsung dipraktikkan di rumah tanpa alat khusus. Dalam beberapa minggu anak saya mulai bisa duduk lebih lama saat belajar dan sudah mengenal lebih banyak huruf. Kursus ini pas untuk orang tua yang ingin persiapan sekolah tanpa membuat anak stres.

My five-year-old went from squirming after two minutes to actually sitting through a counting game with me. The focus-building tips were the real win, and the reading sections made the jump to first grade feel a lot less scary for both of us.

Solid, practical activities for reading and counting readiness, though I wish there were more printable worksheets included.

Saya guna kursus ini untuk sediakan anak saya yang berumur 6 tahun sebelum masuk sekolah rendah, dan aktivitinya memang sesuai dengan tahap umur dia. Bahagian tentang melatih fokus paling berguna sebab anak saya memang cepat hilang tumpuan semasa belajar. Cuma sesetengah aktiviti perlukan bahan yang tak semestinya ada di rumah, jadi kena sediakan dulu sebelum mula.

Aktiviti membaca dan mengira senang diikuti, tapi harap ada lebih banyak contoh untuk anak yang kurang sabar duduk diam.
