Preschool learning has dramatically evolved over the years. Coming out of the traditional methods of reciting poetry and making kids write ABCD, more prominence is now laid on developing their basic creative skills.

Hence, preschool learning now begins with tracing a horizontal line, vertical line, curves, etc. This builds their ability to make strokes appropriately and thereon form alphabets like ABCD without much difficulty.

Keeping this very objective in mind, Publications present preprimary learning aids that cater to the present techniques of preschool teaching. For example - stroke books A, B, and C offer kids ample practice for writing the alphabet in a correct manner through the medium of strokes. The books cater to teaching kids capital letters, small letters and enhanced strokes in addition to introducing them to subtle shades of drawing using strokes. Activity books for kids include activities that keep kids engaged and instill creative skills in them, the play with dots book provides children with a platform to learn numbers by joining the dots.
