GROLIER INTERNATIONAL-DISNEY BOOKS

[Charmaine_chong]

Grolier books


My personal opinion is education needs not to spend tons of $$$$.

Do visit library often enough and should you really want to buy, go for used books, cheaper and might be still in new condition.

For encyclopedia, it updates regularly, please dont’t buy and wait for your kids to get ready to read. Do look for real pictures should you need one. Anyway all these information are readily available in library or Internet.

I agreed with Charmaine_chong. I spend few thousands on a entire set of encyclopedia for juniors to advance learners, history… and younger readers to advance reader…(thinking I will make full use of them since I am a stay home mum) In the end, they are now white elephants! There are plentiful of resources in library, bookshops, internet…need not spend so much $$$. Don’t be like me, very KS, buy everything I can find but never make full use of them as new/updated materials are available easily.

Absolutely Amomm.


I have a lot of materials downloaded from internet eg: phonics, lapbook,funfoldersnd tons of books inclusive Grolier set, but not making full use of it.

I will advise parents to save $$ on trips, 读万卷书不如行万里路。

Hi mummies,


I have just paid $2.5k for Grolier International books & CD for my 2 young children age 1 and 3.

It is expensive investment. This price consist of

words vocabulary
a story a day
i wonder why,
logico
magic english
story book with cd
bookcase


Just wondering can anyone share with me your experience either positive or negative about using this education system?

How well is this education system prepare your child for his/her euducation journey?

How do you make full use of it?

I keep asking myself whether i have made the right choice.

Hi, after so many years, are you still using the books? I met a salesman myself who tried to use some hardselling tactics with me. I said I need more time to think - he said the offer ended y'day but he was happy to stretch the offer just for me, just for one more day.

Is such a heavy investment really worth it?
