About Clear Start Books

Simple practice for the skills that come first.

Clear Start Books creates focused, age-appropriate activity workbooks for young children—and makes it easy for families to understand what each book helps them practice.

Little steps can build real confidence.

The preschool years are full of firsts: first pencil marks, first letters, first numbers and first attempts at cutting along a line. Clear Start Books turns those early skills into approachable practice children can enjoy with a parent, grandparent, teacher or caregiver nearby.

From letter and number tracing to pencil control, scissor skills, counting, matching and early math, every workbook has a clear purpose and room for children to learn at their own pace.
