Ancient Egypt Dot-to-Dot (Connect the Dots & Color) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I ordered this book for my middle school classroom, hoping to have something fun for students who wanted to look deeper into Ancient Egypt, but also to provide something interesting for them to do if they wanted. The problem is that the puzzles aren't your typical dot-to-dot puzzles. Many of them have most of a picture already drawn and the dots just add details like hair to already drawn faces. In my opinion, most of the fun of a dot-to-dot puzzle is revealing the mystery behind the dots. Well, this will not give you that. I really don't know if there is any age where dot-to-dots are more enjoyable when you already know what you're going to get, but certainly the dot-to-dot puzzles here are for a younger age at best. Each page has a dot-to-dot and a bit of information about ancient Egypt. The information is decent, but it too is for a younger age. I would really suggest it for age 8 or 9, but certainly not up to age 12 as one of the book reviews said.

This is more than just an ordinary collection of dot-to-dots: thanks to the fascinating information accompanying each picture, it carries children back in time to the dynamic culture of Ancient Egypt. As kids connect the dots to see the great images, they'll also learn about the land and the people, the government, the groundbreaking inventions, the music and the art. They'll see what everyday life was like and how the Ancient Egyptians farmed, hunted, and traveled. And youngsters will love meeting such famous figures as King Tutankhamen, visiting the Pyramids, seeing the Sphinx, and even finding out about the pets the Egyptians so treasured.
