    Praying Mantis Life Cycle Games Activity Booklet

    January 13, 2021 / No Comments

    What do you know about the praying mantis or the praying mantis life cycle? It is at once one of the creepiest and also one of the coolest bugs going. That’s why I thought it would be fun to share this praying mantis life cycle games booklet with you. Post may contain affiliate links as a service to readers. I receive a small commission via purchases made. There comes a point in every elementary school curriculum when they teach life cycles of animals, plants, humans and insects too. So, whether you are doing remote learning, or in person school this crazy pandemic year, you can probably use this educational booklet…

    Easy Christmas I Spy Game for Preschoolers

    December 17, 2020 / No Comments

    Bring on all the Christmas Word Games. We love them. True story. I printed out a couple of these for my youngest daughter yesterday. Maybe not this one, but the Christmas crossword and the Christmas word scrambler. She loves those kinds of word games. Counting Plus Sorting This Christmas I Spy game is a little bit different in that it is more about math and counting and numeracy. That would definitely not appeal to a few of the kids that I know, but even so, it is important to start learning these concepts and to keep it fun at the same time. Also here’s the thing. At that age, you…

    What Does Your Child Need to Know About Bus Safety?

    August 12, 2019 /

    If your child is starting school soon and they are bused then you need to teach them how to ride the bus safely. Both of my kids rode the bus for years and we know a thing or two about busing. I will never forget how nervous I was that first year my daughter started riding the bus to her French immersion school. Because it was a French immersion school out of our neighbourhood all the kids were bused. I had so many bus safety concerns. Ride the Bus Safely In Junior Kindergarten we walked down the street to the neighbourhood school. But when she was six actually she made…

    Talk Like a Pirate Day – Preschool Pirate Treasure Crossword

    September 12, 2018 /

    Word games can be such a great way to build early literacy skills with children. This simple pirate treasure crossword is fun and easy for kids who are just learning to read and write. They need a basic understanding of alphabet, spelling and printing to figure out this adorable pirate treasure crossword, but they don’t really need to be fluent readers yet. So here’s a cute Pirate Treasure Crossword for your kids. If you homeschool, or have a daycare facility you can help with the printing if need be. Argh Matey, I thought this year it could be fun to run a couple of pirate themed games and colouring pages…

    Dora The Explorer Live in London #ldnont Save with this Presale CODE

    January 27, 2015 /

    Dora The Explorer Live is coming to London, Ontario soon. My kids loved Dora when they were small. I loved her because she was educational and fun. What’s not to love about your child learning another language? Plus Dora is a fun, smart, quirky girl who solves small puzzles and repeats words often so that everyone learns something from watching her. This was one of our first live shows that we ever saw, and it was also one of our first TV shows that the kids watched. In celebration of this upcoming show I wanted to share an exclusive Dora presale code with my readers so that you can get…
