Hi all-
My 31/2 yr old son is completely loving Fireman Sam that plays on Sprout! Has anyone ever gotten any Fireman Sam stuff for their kids? I think it is a London based show.
My other question is how did everyone prepare their kids for the ERB's. Does anyone have any suggestions on workbooks, etc.
Thanks Moms

Hi,
I would google it, and you may find an online retailer who sells their merchandise. GL!
Try amazon.co.uk...the shipping and exchange rate will be pricey but they have a lot of books/toys/etc. In addition, if you have any friends in the UK, Woolworths (which is still in business over there) and Mothercare both carry a line of Fireman sam clothing....
Hi S.,
My 4 yr old nephew also loves Fireman Sam. I got him some stuff by going to the sprout website, ounce you are on that website there is a link for their shows.
I am sorry but i do not know what ERB stands for.
Good luck!

Hi,
The erbs are based on accumulated perception about the world and problem solving. It is important that your child be exposed to fine and major motor skills activities. Use of a crayon is important (my son did not do so well in this area). I got books on mazes for my kids, they also did some puzzle games. Other than that, I fed them well the day of the test (it is best if it can be done on site of nursery school, I think). I told them that someone would be playing special games with them and that it was important that they try their best to be cooperative. The test is also about how well the child transitions from one task to another. I tried not to be stressed out for my children when they were so little and it worked.
Good luck,

Hi S.,
My two boys - 4 yrs and 6 yrs LOVE Fireman Sam and anything that has to do with firefighters and trucks. We go to the Sprout website and Fireman Sam website for games and activities. The Fireman Sam site has an online store with everything Fireman Sam and they take PayPal.
I am not quite sure what ERB's means - I am not quite up to date with the shortened lingo. ;-)
Good Luck,
A.
