I’ve decided to go with 2 previous printables that I created for today’s freebie.  The first is The Colors of the Lorax’s Truffle Trees.  Yes, I know they’re truffula trees, but I just happen to like truffle better and I went with it!!  HAHA  This is a set of 2-part cards where the color of the truffle (truffula) tree is matched to the Lorax’s color word. 

The second item is another set of 2-part cards.  These are The Shape of Thing 1 and Thing 2.  Thing 1 has a shape and it’s matched to the shape world of Thing 2.  Both sets of card come with a storage envelope for the cards.

Ernie in Color

I’ve had this Ernie printable done for quite some time now.  I kept meaning to make more items with him….and perhaps do some Rubber Duckie too.  Their “birthdays” are quite close to each other and I’ve been trying to make printables for their special days.

I never got that far, so all I have to offer you today is Ernie Label the Color Cards.  They color word is places on the card that matches the color of Ernie’s cute little face.

Here’s a peek at some of the cards….

President’s Day

I thought that I’d get this one out early so that there’d be plenty of time to use it!!  Unfortunately, I haven’t been able to create anything new for Valentine’s Day which is tomorrow.  That’ll have to be my goal for next year!!

This is President’s Day Sort and it includes the ffg (file folder game) and a worksheet to complete after the game is played.  Actually, I think I geared the worksheet to an older age group than the ffg, but it’d still be a great review.  Also, some of the images, little ones might not recognize.  You can just use the parts that work for you though!!

There are 12 images to sort for each President by placing the image on either the George Washington or Abraham Lincoln mat.  As it’s played, one might notice many similarites between the 2 presidents.  There’s also a worksheet that uses the sorting mat for answers, but also relies on how much the player knows about each of the presidents.  The last one is an essay to tell about similarities or differences between Washington and Lincoln or just to tell what the player knows about them.  The worksheet also has some true/false, short answer and knowledge.  I did include an answer key for the worksheet as well!!

Here’s a thumbnail view of some of the parts of this ffg and worksheet set….

Sharing the Love

I know, my posting is few and far between.  Since my surgery, I’m just so much more active and don’t spend the time at the computer that I used to.  Plus with the GigaTribe mess, I just didn’t feel like sharing, much less creating new materials.  I gotta admit that I miss it just a bit though!!

Today, I have a folder of Valentine’s Day printables.  Most of these were made last year.  Some of you might have them, or they might be new to many of you.  Either way, it’s a great set of 9 fun activities for the kids!!

First up is my oldest one in the batch.  It’s Valentine Stamp Pattern worksheets and there’s about 3 pages of pretty stamps to complete the pattern on.  Next is A Heart of Many Colors and it’s a set of 2-part cards for color matching.  Then, I have The Shapes of Love 2-part cards for matching the shape to the shape word.

There’s 2 sets of clothespin cards.  One is Have a Heart and that’s for counting numbers 0-20 and Sweetness & Love is for matching upper case to lower case letters.  I also have a set of Have a Heart mirror cards to work on symmetry and just fun play with a mirror!!

A Time for Love is a set of 2-part cards for telling time.  They are for 5 minute times.  There’s a flipbook called Count on Love for matching the number of objects, the numeral, and the number word from 0-20.  Finally, there’s The Price of Being Love Birds which is a set of 2-part cards for money values.  It’s matching the value of a Valentine’s gift to the correct amount in coins.

Groundhog Day

I’m finally back with some printables to share.  In honor of today being Groundhog Day, I thought I’d break out some of my older creations for this event that haven’t been shared in quite some time.

There are 2 puzzles.  The “Daily Nooz” is 9 pieces and the groundhog puzzle is 24 pieces

There is also a groundhog memory game that includes clipart and images of groundhogs and Groundhog Day.

Finally, there’s Groundhog Playground, which is a file folder game (ffg) that can be played just for fun on Groundhog Day, or even all winter long.  If you swap out the cards that are included and replaced them with some of your own, you could use the game to work or review a certain skill that the kids are working on.

All clipart and images are from internet sources and believed to be public domain.

Here’s a thumbnail view of some of the elements of the Groundhog Day printables….

Winter Freebie Printables

I’m sorry that I haven’t posted since the new year.  I’ve just been crazy busy getting ready for a big event in my life and I’ve had so much to make sure was ready for my family and my group.  But I’m back for tonight and I’m not just going to share one, but several!!

First up is Winter Kids 3-Part Cards.  These are sort of like a puzzle where you match the number word, the number of snowflakes, and the numeral.  These cards can be found here.  If you click here, you can find Snowflake Shapes.  They’re a set of 2-part cards to match the shape and shape word.  There’s also a storage envelope included.

I also have 2 sets of mirror cards.  The kids will hold a mirror up along the dotted line to finish the image.  This teaches symmetry.  They are Signs of Winter and Winter Fun.  I also have a checkers game that I call Snowball and it’s played just like regular checkers is, but it has a fun winter theme.

There’s Snow Fun Magnified which can be found if you click here.  They will use a magnifying glass to identify the miniature images, then place the full size image of that miniature in the box.  6 Coins Winter Fun can be found in this folder.  This is a set of puzzle cards where the kids add the amount of 6 coins, and then match it to the puzzle card with that amount. 

That’s it for now, but that’s a lot of fun and games for the kids on these cold winter days.  That is, unless you’re warm for this time of year!!  I hope that you and the kids enjoy them.  I’m not sure when I’ll be back with more printable freebies.  I expect I’ll be away for a week, but if all goes well, maybe sooner.

If you use my FREE printables, please leave a comment and let me know how you and the little ones like them….or don’t like them. I’d also appreciate it if you’d click the button below once a day to vote for my blog. I love feedback and create by the input that I receive….thanks!!

Lil Eskimos Calendar Set

I’m finally back with a new printable to share.  This is a calendar set that features the most adorable little Eskimos.  It was really fun to get back creating again and I hope that you can use it.

Who Is Watching Baby Jesus?

Today is the 20th and final posting of Nativity A Day.  It looks like I missed 3 posting, but I might not be finished for today yet!!  I really enjoyed this challenge, and I hope that you did too.

My offering for today is Who Is Watching Baby Jesus? and it’s played like Who Took the Cookie? and Who Stole Santa’s Elf? that I posted after Thanksgiving.  Players are dealt cards face down and flip one at a time over.  If the player doesn’t have baby Jesus, they say “NOT ME” and play continues on in this manner, one player at a time.  If they do flip over baby Jesus, then they say “IT’S ME” and the game ends.  In this case, the one “watching” baby Jesus is the winner!!  This also includes the box to store the cards in.

Nativity Alphabet Writing Practice

It’s the 19th posting of Nativity A Day and it’s almost at it’s end.  Tomorrow will be the final day that I offer a nativity freebie for this holiday season.  I’ve had so much fun with this.  I’ve stressed over it a few times, missed a couple days…..but no matter what, I enjoyed it!!  I hope that you did as well and that the kids benefit from this in so many ways.

Up for offering today are Nativity Alphabet Writing Practice cards.  These tracing cards are a good size cards that could easily be laminated and written on with dry erase marker or they could just be printed out and used with any writing instrument.  Each card contains the upper case and lower case letter, with a cute nativity scene.  Also, there’s 2 sets, in case some of you use ZB or DN (labeled in the file name).

The Nativity Cards & Box

So it’s finally back to The Schoolhouse with Nativity A Day.  This is the 17th posting and there’s only 3 more to go in addition to this one.  That means that I missed 3 postings!!  What do you think of that??  Do you think that I completed my personal challenge??

Today I have a set of nativity cards to offer.  These are large cards and can be used a number of ways.  If you only print one set, you could use them for flashcards, sequencing, or retelling the story of the nativity.  If you print 2 copies, they could be used for “Go Fish”, concentration/memory, or “Old Maid” (but don’t forget to pull one card so you have an odd one).  They could be used for so much more too!!  It also includes a storage box to keep them in.

MERRY, or Christmas Bingo!!

Unfortunately, there is no Nativity A Day again today.  It’s just been too busy of a weekend and I didn’t feel that I could properly do what I needed to do for a nativity printable.  Nativity A Day will definitely return tomorrow (over at Commotion from the Ocean of Life) and barring any unforeseen issues, will post everyday until the 23rd as planned.  Thanks for sticking with me and all the holiday craziness!!

I don’t post empty handed though!!  I have a game called MERRY, which is just a fun Christmas word for bingo.  There’s a big variety of cards, so you can have from 1-12 play.  That means that you can use if for all those fun holiday parties and family events this week!!  The clipart is some really cute Christmas curls and I just think they’re so fun and interesting.  I’ve had them a year and finally decided what to do with them!!  I did include calling cards that can be left as is, or cut apart to draw which object will be called next.
