Quick answer

The Problem Solver Play Kit Book Bundle includes two hardcover books—'Measurement Day' and 'You Decide'—that help toddlers navigate conflict resolution and cause-and-effect thinking.

Why these two books work together

Both books in this bundle target social-emotional skills that are central to the Problem Solver Play Kit. 'Measurement Day' presents a sibling disagreement over a measuring tape, giving toddlers a model for compromise. 'You Decide' uses a choose-your-own-path format to show how choices lead to different outcomes. Together they cover two distinct but complementary skills: resolving conflicts and understanding consequences.

What you don't get with the bundle

The book bundle is a standalone add-on—it does not include the main play kit items like puzzles, stacking blocks, or the activity guide. If you are considering the bundle as a gift or supplement, note that it works best when paired with the full Problem Solver Play Kit or as a focused literacy purchase for a toddler who already enjoys interactive stories.

How to decide if this bundle is right for you

  • Your child is 3–4 years old and working on sharing: The 'Measurement Day' book directly models how two characters resolve a dispute over a toy. If your toddler struggles with turn-taking or sibling arguments, this story gives them a clear example to discuss.
  • Your child enjoys interactive stories: The 'You Decide' book lets your child pick what happens next. If your toddler already engages with lift-the-flap or choose-your-path books, this format will hold their attention and reinforce cause-and-effect thinking.
  • You already own the Problem Solver Play Kit: The bundle is designed to complement the main kit. If you have the kit, adding the books deepens the theme. If you don't own the kit, the books still work as standalone reads but lack the hands-on activities that reinforce the same skills. Consider buying the full play kit first if you want a complete problem-solving experience.
