By now you would have noticed that during the 11+ preparation, kids would have written lot of  notes/ tips / creative writing exercises on loose sheets or on notebooks, soon this would overrun and would be very hard to manage, search and revisit. we got this Rocket Book as a gift, and I was initially reluctant to use it as I dint see a proper use case for it. During lockdown when I had to take hundreds of print outs a week I felt embarrassed to waste lot of paper and resources. First I though I could ask my kids to directly write it on the computer, later I realized that it could back fire as they might loose the writing speed / handwriting during the exam, also writing directly on the computer could strain their eyes and causes lot of distraction.

I was blown away to see how it woks and kids were super excited as well. since then we have been using this every time.  You can but this on amazon https://amzn.to/2OVaCnj Disclosure: som...
