I don’t anticipate my kids will get bored over the break. I mean, my kids never nag, whine, or tell me there’s nothing in the house amongst the dolls, puzzles, books, crafts, legos, and two thousand dinosaurs to do.
But just in case, I made these.
There’s an All About Me page, with questions to capture what kids think and who they are during Winter 2013.
There’s a place to write and illustrate a story about a snowman (or snow lady).
We have a big cookie plate and cookies to decorate.
Or maybe they want to try baking cookies. There’s a little compare/contrast activity for that, too.
Hadley loves writing letters to her friends, and I know she’s going to go through major withdrawal when she’s on break and can’t see them every day, so I made a little letter writing activity.
And Harper loves decorating things so I punched out a bunch of snowflakes for her to fancy up.
There’s a make your own memory game.
And a design your own bookmark page (perhaps to give some away as gifts?)
I have another story prompt, this one, about a boy (or girl) with a scarf on. The girls can create a character sketch before they start to write their story. And of course, there’s a spot to illustrate it as well.
But like I said, it’s just in case they get bored. Which I’m sure they won’t. Just like I’m sure they won’t fight. So just in case you’d like one too, they’re available in my shop.
Just in case.
