Description
Ages: 1-3
Matt, Molly, and Bear are the lovable characters in this program that teaches critical early language skills, joint attention, and social reciprocity through engaging stories and hands-on activities!
Each lesson in the five-program set centers around a three-part story portrayed on 8 ½" x 11" full-color picture cards and everyday props (e.g. bubble, teddy bear, gift box).
Children complete hands-on activities using gestures (sign language), objects, pictures, role-playing, singing, and take-home resources. The lessons and materials work well in classrooms and small groups. Each program has eight comprehensive lessons with:
