Printable Playdough Mats: K & L

July 8, 2013 by Kimberly Leave a Comment

Learning through play is like sneaking vegetables into your meatloaf – it’s sneaky, and it works. For the children who won’t sit down at the table and practice their letters over and over again, a playdough mat might just come in handy. The way we use the playdough mat is simple. Stick it in a […]

Printable Playdough Mats: I & J

May 31, 2013 by Kimberly 1 Comment

Playdough mats are a fun way to teach letters to young children. They are also great for review for those who already know their letters (like my daughter). Up next are letters I and J. I did plain cones for “I is for ice cream” so that Lorelai (and your kids!) could make their own […]

Printable Letter Match Flashcards

May 29, 2013 by Kimberly 7 Comments

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 […]

{ Patterning with Foam Stickers }

May 24, 2013 by Kimberly Leave a Comment

I have mentioned this before, but I have a serious foam sticker problem. If I see a tub on sale, I have to get it. I mean really, who can pass up a 100-count foam sticker bucket for only $2? Not this girl! Anyway, I am always looking for a way to use our foam […]

Printable Pretend Play Set: Restaurant

May 7, 2013 by Kimberly 12 Comments

Pretend play is my five-year-old’s favorite way to play. Ever since I made the Pet Adoption & Vet Clinic Pretend Play printable sheets, she has requested again and again for more. I finally got around to making this Restaurant set last night, with her glued to my side and making suggestions here and there. There […]

April 27, 2013 by Kimberly 1 Comment

Playdough mats are a fun way to learn while playing! Whether your child is now learning his/her letters, letter sounds, or you are just in need of a fun diversion, these playdough mats can help.

Scavenger Hunt Activity with Printable

March 26, 2013 by Kimberly 10 Comments

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 […]

Reading Challenge with Printable

March 19, 2013 by Kimberly 5 Comments

My daughter is a reader. A beginner reader, but a reader, nonetheless. She has gotten more and more confident in her sounding out abilities as of late, that I decided to give her even more incentive to pick up her books and dive into them. I created a reading challenge for her. Once she hits […]

Printable Lined Story Paper

February 18, 2013 by Kimberly Leave a Comment

I love seeing Lore’s little imagination come to life. She has gotten so creative lately – both in her drawings and her independent crafting. She made a crown today out of construction paper… all by herself, and it turned out really cute! Then tonight she asked to write a book. I had made this lined […]

{ Shaving Cream Marble Painting }

January 21, 2013 by Kimberly Leave a Comment

What a fun project for a quiet afternoon at home! I heard about this project ages ago from a friend (Hi Manda!) and finally got around to doing it with Lorelai today.

{ Balloon Experiment }

December 17, 2012 by Kimberly 2 Comments

Experimenting with Baking Soda and Vinegar is definitely a favorite activity here. In the past, we’ve done a BS&V Volcano, and BS&V Food Coloring Fun. Today, after picking Lorelai up from school and eating lunch, I gathered the materials for today’s experiment. We hadn’t been out on the patio in a few weeks, so everything […]

Sink or Float Experiment with Printable

November 18, 2012 by Kimberly 1 Comment

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

November 17, 2012 by Kimberly 3 Comments

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

October 22, 2012 by Kimberly Leave a Comment

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

September 17, 2012 by Kimberly 2 Comments

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 […]

{ Bottle Cap Counting }

August 6, 2012 by Kimberly Leave a Comment

Today we worked on counting by 5s and 10s by using bottle caps. Bottle caps can be used for many things – sight words, letters, numbers, etc. It’s inexpensive and a lot more fun than just writing the numbers down on paper. Lorelai lined them up, counted, and made up her own little song. So […]

Missing Letters: ABC Apples

August 4, 2012 by Kimberly 2 Comments

  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 […]

{ Baking Soda & Vinegar Experiment }

August 2, 2012 by Kimberly 1 Comment

It has been a pretty busy week around here, and we haven’t much free time for crafts. Today after my lunch meeting and errands, Lorelai and I came home and did a fun science experiment with baking soda and vinegar. While we were in Maryland a couple of months ago, Lorelai made a volcano with […]

{ Marshmallow & Toothpick Fun }

July 31, 2012 by Kimberly 1 Comment

I have been wanting to do this activity with Lorelai for a while now, so when we had a few spare minutes this afternoon that needed filling, we got right to it. Lorelai really enjoyed this. Probably because she got to eat little morsels of sugar throughout the entire activity without me screeching about it […]
