UnlikelyHomeschoolingMama Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 Has anybody here used MiniLuk? I'm looking at it for my 4.5 year old as something he can do somewhat independently while I do school with my 2nd and 4th graders. He is already reading CVC words and doing simple addition and subtraction. He won't be 5 until December, so I'm just trying to keep him busy and engaged. He seems to be teaching himself things, so I figure give him other "interesting" learning opportunities and not do anything formal for a while. MiniLuk looks like something fun and engaging. Anybody have any experience with it? Thanks! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HomeAgain Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 We used Bambinoluk and then switched to Versatiles. They were well loved here. I rotated through the books so only one or two was available at a time, and they were used while we had a different activity for the other child each week. We rotated through those, shape games, logic puzzles, pounding pegs in clay, stencils, and other things. I don't think I would use the books too frequently, each page only took about a minute or so to complete, up to maybe ten minutes for the Versatiles.

Rockhopper Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 BambinoLuk here too, and well enjoyed in the 3-4 age ranges. I'm planning to move to miniLuk once the Bambino ones sell, as they do a nice job of giving some engaged independent time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UnlikelyHomeschoolingMama Posted May 19, 2017 Author Share Posted May 19, 2017 Why did you switch to Versatiles? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HomeAgain Posted May 19, 2017 Share Posted May 19, 2017 Why did you switch to Versatiles? Because I was on a budget. I bought a large set for $20 at a used curriculum sale (and picked up FunThinkers, another similar program, for $5). I couldn't justify the cost of Miniluk when similar materials were available cheaper. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
