    Happy Birthday Colouring Pages Package

    May 1, 2026 - By 

    Birthdays are unique marker in our lives. And I mean generally speaking there are two camps around birthday celebrations. Love them or hate them and try to ignore. Either way, this year I am sharing a birthday printable package because I love to share and I adore word games and birthday colouring pages as many of you do too. My Hot Take I am not a massive birthday celebrator. It is often one more day of the year. For a time I worked at a spot where it was your job to bring in treats for everyone else on your…

    Earth Day Word Search

    April 15, 2026 - By 

    Earth Day is an annual reminder that our planet’s health is a shared responsibility. But it is also a celebration of the incredible natural beauty surrounding us. From the rugged coastlines of our favourite travel destinations to the crisp air on a mountain peak, nature is the ultimate backdrop for our lives. Which is exactly why we need to care and take care of the planet. As we look toward more sustainable ways to live and explore, Earth Day serves as the perfect moment to pause, appreciate the environment, and recommit to protecting the ecosystems that sustain us.

    Keep Kids Busy with This Free Easter “I Spy” Printable!

    March 21, 2026 - By 

    We’ve all been there: the Easter dinner is almost ready, the eggs are hidden, but the kids are starting to get that “pre-chocolate” restless energy. You need about fifteen minutes of peace to get the ham out of the oven or finally finish your coffee while it’s actually hot. Enter the Easter I Spy! This is one of my favourite types of printables because it’s a “quiet” game. It challenges the kids to hunt for hidden bunnies, decorated eggs, spring chicks, rainbows and baskets tucked away in a festive scene. It’s like a mini scavenger hunt they can do right at…

    Easter Word Scramble

    March 19, 2026 - By 

    This Easter Word Scramble is my way of saying to you, enjoy the spring months while they are here. They certainly do not last long. After months of heavy coats, salt-stained boots, and that perpetual grey sky that seems to settle over Ontario, seeing the first hint of green can be basically a religious experience. Between the mud (so much mud!) and the birds finally making a racket again every morning waking me up, the signs of spring are hard to ignore. Listen, everyone here knows I love winter. It is my favourite but I might be in the minority…

    Easy Christmas I Spy Game for Preschoolers

    December 17, 2020 - By 

    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…
