The first time I saw the words "Priddy Books"- actually "www.priddybooks.com," I thought it was a neat little name that someone had come up with to sell cute little girly books- Ooh! That's so priddy!!!. The web address was on the back of a package of ABC Wipe Clean Activity Flash Cards that I purchased from an outlet store for my three yr. old daughter. Being really impressed at how smooth and easy they were to erase (and how much she really enjoyed them!), I wondered who made them and if they sold anything else. I was also impressed at how big and bold the letters were on the cards- making it very easy for her to trace (and she's learning her letters quickly!) The cards are about 5"w x 7.5"h and are very sturdy.
When I Googled "priddybooks" I found that they are sold at Amazon.com (my favorite site); so, I visited the site for more info. Surprisingly, I found that there are OVER 200 PRIDDY PRODUCTS!
Another surprise- they all had the name "Roger Priddy" as the author, which explains the product description. The story of Roger Priddy was very impressive to me- a young man who left school at the age of 16, with one skill/talent to build on - ART. He continued to study art and eventually developed a whole slew of great books and learning products for preschoolers/kinder-gardeners. Mr. Priddy has 4 kids of his own, so he has hands-on experience with developing children.
I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Priddy Book products to any parent that wishes to teach their child(ren) the ABC's, Numbers, Writing, Reading, etc. at home. I don't think there's a better product. Trust me, I also purchased for my daughter a LeapFrog device, which is helpful as well; but, there's something about putting marker to paper (or wipe-off cards), that really helps develop a child's memory, writing and motor skills.
It's very likely I will continue to buy Priddy products in the future. So far, I've purchased the Wipe Clean ABC Flash Cards, the 1,2,3 Flash Cards and the Tracing and Pen Control Workbook- all high quality products!
