Find and fill your mind with NEW WORDS :)

Word searches are hypnotic little hunts that expand a child’s vocabulary, word fluency and spelling ability. Very young children are usually given Dolch Sight word searches. Sight words are frequently used words in oral and written English.

Sight words are the glue for sentences.
Words such as – and, all, away, go, help, it, is – are all sight words. They are critical to sentence building.

Many kids pick up on sight words quickly. Age appropriate books are filled with sight words. But age appropriate books also have many new words. Providing word searches for these ‘new’ words can turn a competent young reader into a sophisticated young reader.
Fujimini Island provides a word search on their website. Let your child hunt for words and watch their vocabulary grow quick and strong.

Have Fun! Play Games!

ONCEKids has several games that provide an opportunity for readers of the Fujimini Island Adventure Series to deepen their experience and, for those who have yet to read the books, explore the world of Fujimini Island.  

Fujimini Island has a word search, coloring sheets and a build your own sushi game.

For the ‘build your own sushi’ game kids learn about food, a predominant cultural motif, they expand their vocabulary and improve hand and eye coordination. They also get to be creative. Plus, the game is fun and a fun game ensures the greatest learning.

Go to Fujimini Island to play games and build your own sushi.
