Happy Birthday, Bert!!

 

Today, is Bert’s birthday.  Bert is best known as the best friend of Ernie on Sesame Street.  He likes to collect paper clips and bottle caps.   Bert has a pigeon called Bernice.  He has a twin brother, Bart, who’s a salesman. 

To celebrate Bert’s birthday, I’m offering a couple of printables featuring our serious friend from 123 Sesame Street.  First is “Bert Label the Color Cards”.  These cards feature Bert’s face in many colors and each one is to be labeled with the corresponding color word.  There’s also “Bb for Bert” sorting mats.  Items are sorted by objects that start with “Bb” or don’t start with “Bb”.  There’s a worksheet that accompanies this game for when the sorting is complete!!

Here’s a collage sample of some of Bert’s pages….

If you’re interested celebrating Bert’s birthday, please just…..

Winnie the Pooh

 

 

In my group, we recently did an author study of A. A. Milne, which meant doing all things Pooh!!  I felt really creative with Winnie the Pooh and I made several items to go along with this theme.  And if you love Pooh, you of course, have to love all his friends too!!

Included in this Winnie the Pooh & Friends folder are “Pooh & Friends Letter Tile Mats”.  Kids can spell out each of the characters names.  There’s also some “Winnie the Pooh & Friends Cards” and a storage box.  These can be used for concentration, Go Fish, or even Old Maid as there’s an extra card to be the “Old Maid”.  You’ll also find a variety of Winnie the Pooh shape jigsaw puzzles.  These are great for any age and so fun with all of the favorite characters!!

I also made a board game or file folder game (ffg) called “Hundred Acre Wood”.  This one features Pooh & Friends in scenes on the game board with hunny pot spaces to add your own skill.  Can also just be played on family game night!!  This is a compete game with a die, player tokens, and blank cards with optional card backs.

You’ll find some “Winnie the Pooh & Friends Copy-a-Picture”.  What a fun way to work on art skills!!  After the picture is copied, it can be colored for added fun.  There’s some “Winnie the Pooh & Friends Complete the Pattern”.  These strips are in AB, ABC, AAB, ABB, AABC, ABBC, and ABCC patterns.  Finally, I’ve made “Pooh’s Hunny Pot Shape 2-Part Cards”.  Pooh is looking in his cabinet for his shape hunny pots and the shape word in the cabinet has to be matched to the shape hunny pot!!

Here’s a collage sample of some of the materials in this folder….

Let’s Have a Picnic!!

July is National Picnic Month.  It starts off the perfect way and the perfect time for a picnic.  And that great start is Independence Day!!  What’s better than celebrating the 4th of July with a cookout or picnic by the lake.

I’ve created a couple items to help celebrate National Picnic Month and get us ready for bbq-ing this summer and church picnics!!  First, there’s Ants on a Picnic Number Mats and we all know how pesky those ants can be!!  Ants are sorted onto the mats by the number indicated on the picnic basket.  You won’t be annoyed by these cute little ants though!!

Next, there’s 2 sets of Picnic Alphabet Writing Strips.  There’s a set for upper case….and a set for lower case.  I also made a sequencing puzzle called Sequence Teddy Bear’s Picnic.  It’s made from an adorable picture and they place the strips in order to complete the puzzle.

Finally, there’s some shadow matching cards.  These are What’s in the Picnic Basket? Shadow Match Cards.  There’s an image on the plate and it must be matched to the shadow of that image on the picnic basket.  What do you think it inside the picnic basket??

Here’s a sample collage of some of the pages….

Superman

 

Superman first appeared was June 1938.  His first appearance was in Action Comics #1.  If you’re intrested in learning more about Superman, check out Wikipedia and Superman Homepage.  

In celebration of his “birthday”, I’ve created a couple printables.  These could easily be used in the classroom, homeschool, or gifts and games for a party theme.  There’s a set of jigsaw puzzles that vary in the number of pieces and some really great images were used to create these.  There’s also a set of cards with a storage box.  These cards can be used for memory/concentration, “Go Fish”, “Old Maid”, or other games!!

Here’s a sample collage of some of the pages….

Let’s Have a Luau

Summer is the perfect time to have a luau!!  I’ve created several printables that can be used in the classroom or at a party. 

This set includes several puzzles with various number of pieces.  The main object of the puzzles is a tiki.  There’s also an old Hawaii map postcard and other luau related items.  There’s also a full set of cards that feature tiki art and they can be used for memory/concentration with a storage box.

There is also a Tiki Tango Game.  This is a game that can be mounted inside a file folder and used as a file folder game or it can be laminated together and used as a game board.  It’s a word game with all the words having –ANG- in them.  It includes the cover, directions, tab label, die, player tokens, and game board.

Here’s a collage of just some of the luau/tiki items available ….

Tiki art from internet sources.  Box background from Vecteezy and tiki head from Creative Clips.

If you’re interested in these tiki printables, please just…..
