If you have a little one who is learning how to use scissors, this printable will be handy for you. Madeline, 4, enjoyed cutting out the different bear faces and matching them up to the heads. This is especially great if you are doing a bear-themed week. Check out our bear printables here, as well […]
Printable Letter Match Flashcards
Flashcard games and activities can be a fun way to introduce a new learning concept to your child. Whether your child is just now learning the alphabet, or is an old pro, doing a match-up of upper and lowercase letters is good fun. We are visiting family out-of-state right now, so I don’t have access […]
Printable Playdough Mats: C & D
Playdough mats are a fun way to introduce letters to your child(ren). If you have an older child (like me!) then they are great for just providing a backdrop for playough play. Think: coloring with playdough! I don’t have any action shots of these being played with. I’m saving them for when I have a […]
Scavenger Hunt Activity with Printable
Spring is officially here, and here in Houston, the weather today was BEAUTIFUL! 65 degrees and sunny – I couldn’t have asked for a nicer day. This afternoon, Lorelai and I headed to a local nature sanctuary and walked the trails while looking for items on our scavenger hunt list. This particular park is an […]
Sink or Float Experiment with Printable
Science Sunday! Okay, that’s not really a thing here, but it sounds good. I meant to get to this yesterday but we had a whole lot of nothing going on…. you know how that is. Lore was hopping up and down when I mentioned doing an experiment. She followed me around like a little duckling […]
Turkey Learning Activties & Printables
Lorelai was so upset to miss school yesterday. We had some car trouble in the morning on the way to school and she wasn’t able to go. So I made a point to do some fun learning activities with her today. We went out on the patio since it’s so beautiful outside. She was chipper […]
Practice Your Address Printable
I made this printable practice worksheet for Lorelai. She’s learning our home address and I wanted something a little more fun for her to practice it on. I plan to laminate it so that we can use a dry-erase marker; that way we will get more use out of it! Open Practice Your Address Printable […]
Sight Word Magnets with Printable
This project has been in the back of my mind for weeks now. Lorelai is really great about sounding out words, but she has been struggling with comprehending the sentences she reads. There are also some words that can’t be sounded out correctly, that she struggles with. Flashcards aren’t her forte, so I made some […]
Missing Letters: ABC Apples
I made this simple worksheet to test Lore’s ability to figure out missing letters in the alphabet. There are only 15 apples on the printable, but instead of printing two, I just did little sections of the alphabet wat a time. She flew right through it! I also tried her on numbers and she […]
A Butterfly’s Life Cycle – Printable
In case you haven’t caught on yet, today’s theme is the life cycle of a butterfly. Yes, a theme for the day, since we’re stuck inside waiting for our service guy to come fix our refrigerator door. I knew last night that I would have to dig deep and find a bunch of stuff to […]
Polaroid Word Activity with Printable
I finally had a few minutes to make this polaroid word activity that has been bouncing around my head for ages. Remember in school how the teacher would give you paper that had a box to draw in, and underneath there were lines to write a story? Same concept, but on a much smaller scale. […]
Printable Alphabet & Numbers Worksheets
Lorelai has known the alphabet (upper and lower) since she was two, but every now and again she’ll get tripped up on a letter if she doesn’t use/see it for a while. I made this very simple printable sheet with all of the letters in ‘bubble’ form so she could color them in. There are […]
Word Practice: Zoo Edition
I made another beginner word practice sheet for Lorelai, but this time Zoo-Themed. Instead of restricting it to certain word group (like with the Pirate Printable), I left the entire thing blank. Laminate or stick in a pocket protector sheet to use many times. 🙂 Lorelai and I did “at”, “an”, and “it” words today. […]
Practice Cutting: Zoo Edition
Zoo week is here! So so excited about this one because we’re ending the week on Friday by visiting the zoo, something we haven’t done in over a year (oops). Neither of us were in a crafty mood this morning so we did our regular homeschool thing in the morning and added in this cutting […]
{ Oceans of the World Printable }
{ Download & Print: Our World’s Oceans Printable } This is another printable I made. Not as colorful and fun as most, but it does get the job done if you don’t have a globe handy – which we don’t yet. (It’s on my list!) We went through the different oceans and Lorelai currently knows […]
Ocean Worksheets
I made these two ocean-themed print-outs for Lorelai to use for practice. The first one is a tracing sheet with ocean-themed words. She went over them in marker. You can laminate the printable or use a sheet protector to get more than one use out of it! Sorry, the quality isn’t the best in the […]
Beginning Blends Printable
I wanted to incorporate some actual learning into our theme this week, so I made a transportation-themed printable. This one focuses on blended letters that come at the beginning of words. For instance, as shown above, FL ~ flower. My goal was to put a consonant blend in front of Lorelai and have her sound […]
Learning About Rainforest Animals
Lorelai learned all about the animals of the rainforest today. We watched many videos on Youtube and the one above was definitely my favorite. I love how she went through each layer and gave examples. I made this cute printable this past Sunday when I was planning for the week. Each layer of the rainforest […]
Layers of the Rainforest Printable
Open Layers of the Rainforest Printable This week, Lorelai is learning all about rainforests. She got really excited when I told her about all of the crafts and activities I have planned for the week ahead. It’s going to be busy, but lots of fun! Starting off Monday morning, I showed her this printable I […]
