Editor's Notes

June 07, 2020:

To the untrained eye educational posters may seem like they all look and perform the same. However, for kids, the layout of a page and how visually attractive it is can alter the way it's perceived. Many of the options in our list reflect good examples of brands that have found a balance between being informative and aesthetically pleasing.

Whilst prioritizing packs that are useful for preschoolers, our list includes some options that are also beneficial for elementary school children, such as The Poster Shed Wall Charts and the Palace Curriculum Learning Charts. Similarly, whilst the Hubble Bubble Kids ASL Charts are useful for youngsters with hearing difficulties, they are also great to encourage their friends to utilize sign language when communicating.

We know that keeping a child's attention for long periods of time can be tough, so the Purple Dolphin 2-in-1 Interactive is a great selection as it works well by promoting learning through play. It not only voices the associated words of each letter, but it has a fun A-Z and number quiz game. Unfortunately, it has occasional technical errors whereby it says correct answers are incorrect, although it is usually accurate, this has affected its ranking on our list.

Our top pick, the Simply Magic Double-Sided, was chosen based on its content and display. The fact that this option doesn't capitalize common nouns is a great attribute, as children will often visualize and copy words they have seen on the wall.

It's important to remember that kids don't learn everything in the classroom, in early development many skills are acquired through recreational activities. Therefore, it's not only important to have appropriate school materials, it's also essential to pick the right playthings, ones that encourage dexterity and coordination, as well as promote cognitive development. Check out our list of educational games and toys for preschoolers to give your little ones the best start.

Special Honors

Lakeshore Learning Basic Skills The Basic Skills Poster Pack actually uses photographs rather than drawings to demonstrate the meaning of certain words. This can help young learners to utilize what they have studied on the chart in everyday life, for example, a cup of coffee is hot, or a pizza is a circle. lakeshorelearning.com

The Scholastic Alphabet This colorful poster grabs the attention of young kids without being overwhelming. The letters are displayed in individual boxes with a corresponding picture for clarity. This is a good option if you only want to purchase one piece rather than a set. They also have other single posters available to suit each teacher's individual needs. supplyme.com
