2-4 Boxes: Preschool Items

I discovered a new store yesterday, I am sure I am "late" to the party. Ollies had a couple of good shoebox items. 

I want to talk about this one. Price is great at 29 cents, dry erase maker and number cards. Yes, the numbers are in English but I think still good for the 2-4 boxes. They can learn to count the animals and learn to write the numbers. There is also a doodle sheet in the set. 

My daughter in law taught a Title 1 school in Charleston and her kids often weren't prepared for school. I imagine shoebox recipients have very little preschool prep. I think if we try to include some items that have a dual purpose of fun and learning, it could go a long way to help a child be ready for school
