Preschool GHI Series: Going On Eagerly

This is the first book in the new Preschool G-H-I Series that is being developed. This series will extend the present Preschool A-B-C Series. When completed, it will provide six more books to help build a good scholastic foundation for the preschool child.

This new series uses a specific geographical region as a theme for each book, giving the added advantage of teaching geographical awareness by association, along with an awareness of God as the Creator.

Building a good foundation for our children's education is important. But still more important is building a solid foundation for their spiritual welfare. These books are designed to help in preparing the child for a good education from a Scriptural perspective. However, it is still the parents' responsibility to guide the child in the way of truth.

Going On Eagerly, with a polar theme, gives a basic introduction to the series. Exercises include using eight colors, working with four basic shapes, writing and counting with numbers 0 through 10, identifying sequence, drawing missing parts and simple pictures.
