Parents don't usually make the effort to seek out WPPSI testing for their child unless they have reason to believe that their child is cognitively advanced and need test results for a reason (like an application to a specialized school program). The products suggested here were chosen under the assumption that you've got a highly capable child.
The BambinoLUK system is an excellent choice for a young child. So long as your child is physically ready to manipulate the pieces they can work independently on the activities. Static and animated demonstrations of how the system works can be found in the LUK area of our website. The SpecialLUK Primary is specially designed for very young children to introduce them to the system. When your child is ready move on to the miniLUK and miniLUK Advance levels in the LUK system.
Your able three year old should be ready to tackle any of the products listed here. We recommend the bundles because of the breadth of the WPPSI but the most applicable individual titles are also listed below and other titles from the bundles are available for individual puchase (click on the bundle for links to individual products). Young children learn through play which is why we've included the manipulative block set in our recommendations below.
Don't expect your child to be ready to write answers to all the questions or to be able to read problems independently. What's important is the thinking that goes into finding the solution. Read to them, scribe for them and discuss with them as necessary. Have fun.
