PALS at Home is designed for children aged 5 -7. It is more than just a book. It is a compendium of games. The activities are described and explained at the beginning of the book. The game cards make up the rest of the book. They are colour-coded and on perforated card for easy removal.
It is a recommended home supplement to the Grade R curriculum and it can also be used as an intervention support for children experiencing difficulty in this area.
Leading schools in Cape Town have seen the value of PALS at Home. They have either introduced it as the home literacy support programme or are using it as a supplementary tool in Grade R and 1.
