Mrs. TNTBS speaks with Karen Edwards Editorial Director of Educational Resources at Workman
I was excited to get this interview because often the things that are promoted are by a paid spokesperson who may not know first hand if a product works. So instead of only looking good sharing a product, I can tell you that I have used these tools with my own children. I'm further excited because my grandchildren will have access to these as well. Tools that help bridge the gaps in learning for our children are gold mines. Here's to building stronger family bonds through learning. #brainquest30years
With more than 56 million copies in print, the Brain Quest brand has continued to touch the lives of children for 3 decades. Loved by kids, trusted by parents, and used and recommended by teachers, it is the curriculum-based brand that makes learning fun. And with the launch of My First Brain Quest, babies and toddlers finally have the opportunity to experience what has made this brand so beloved over the years!
