Reading Kindgdom Computer Program Product Review


I received a free year of Reading Kingdom subscription in exchange for an honest review. I have both my 4 and 6 year old doing the Kindergarten Level 1 reading and writing program. The teacher or praent has a dashboard that you can click on each child and see their progress and performance. It leads them into the game using an owl character. Each lesson is about 15-30 minutes long. There have been 20 activities for each of them that practice one word in each of the 20 activities. As it goes up, I assuming it is sentences and writing, but mine are in the basics of reading. I am having to help my 4 year old with the mouse and clicking on answers. She is struggling some, but the games are getting predictable, so she is starting to get it without me. My 6 year old is understanding how to do it by himself. They both have very basic reading skills because they haven't started Kindergarten yet. For example, one section is spelling the word girl using various activities like spelling it with letter boxes, clicking on pictures, clicking on bubbles or blasting it with a rocketship using a keyboard. Lots of variety and animation. Everything moves at a healthy pace and nothing is flashy. The word is read to them or hints are given if they take too long. It will move on if they don't choose anything or get it wrong. Very simple and colorful.

QB Desing Headrest and Backrest Product Review

I received the QB Design Headrest and back rest for free in exchange for an honest review. Note: You will have to purchase separately. They do not come as a set. Because it is the same company and same idea, I thought I would put them together, so you can see what it would look like with both.
So they come in vacuum bags all tiny and shrunk up, but when you pull it out, within 5 minutes it is at it's normal shape and not wrinkly.  The backrest is very squishy and I found it quite comfortable on my back. I felt like it relieved pressure on my back, especially in the lower area and part of the upper area. I am short, so most of it covers my back. If you are taller, it won't though.  You can adjust where you want it on the chair with the string and little slider piece that comes with it. Just string it through the front two slots and it is ready to go. Put it over the head rest. I think it should hold up for quite a while.  It is thinner at the top and wider at the bottom to give more support.  The headrest is a little trickier for me to test because I am very short, so my neck doesn't reach the neck rest area.  I found that it was very cushiony though up against my neck if I placed it where it should be. For those of you, not height challenged, it has an elastic band with a clip that goes around the neck rest area and stays securely on it. So I would say both of these are very comfortable and are made out of breathable material.
