My Epic Life - Daily Word Workout: Daily Word Workout Spiral-bound – February 25, 2020

Kids love the illustrations and the daily content.

The main advantage of this is its physical structure: the mere idea that you can stand it up and have it our for your kids all day. The word definitions are often either incorrect or not exact enough, and always only cover one meaning, which can be puzzlingsometimes for the kids. My kids almost always need an added explanation, although they already know many of these by age 5, so it's rather a spelling reminder for the elder one. What is awesome, the additional pictures on the back that are either explanatory or additional. I myself learnt many new words from them - so again, the intended age group will need a parent's help with a dictionary, but that really enriched their vocabulary. I like the idea that it reinforces a habit of looking unknown things up.

There were a few that probably weren't necessary...they were phrases instead of new words and a few words only 6mo old babies wouldn't know. But other than that, my kids love turning the page and hearing a new word!

Eh, vocab words have a bit of an agenda to them... They are good words to know, but the dictionary has better definitions. Also, just not a fan of the artwork.

My child hated the illustration like the dry skin and excessive sweat. For something geared towardschildren the images are off putting. Also some of the words were just plain nonsense. Bummed I wasted my money.

I made the mistake of purchasing quite a few of the wordsmith books. The drawings are cute, but unfortunately there’s isn’t much beyond that. Few of the words were anything new, and some were plain ridiculous- like they ran out of ideas or something.
