Weather Tracing Fun

Learning about weather is a daily activity for many early childhood classrooms! We always tracked the weather on our daily calendar and in our daily calendar notebooks. A weather theme is fun with young kids. We have a fun new Tracing Fun pack for you featuring weather! See more Tracing Fun sets here!

Why Tracing Fun?

Tracing is a great way to develop fine motor skills while doing something fun! Many young children won’t enjoy tracing letters but might enjoy tracing the lines in these activity pages! Pencil-control skills are a skill that needs to be practiced, why not have fun doing it?

Is your Kindergartner having trouble holding a pencil correctly? See our post here about pencil grip and the simple tool we found very effective!!

Want to reuse these pages over and over again? Slip them into sheet protectors and use dry erase markers or crayons with them!

In this free printable tracing set you’ll find the following activity pages:

Winter Fun Q-Tip Painting Printables

I have a new set of Winter Fun Q-Tip Painting Printables for you! This set has a simple sentence describing the picture, so you could staple them all together to make a book! The focus letter comes from a word in the sentence. Lots of fun winter printables to keep little hands busy.

S is for snowman, A is for angel, B is for Ball, H is for hill, G is for gift, T is for tree, S is for skiing…lots of alphabet fun, painting fun, and winter fun all in one! Winter Fun Q-Tip Painting

WHY use Q-Tip Painting Printables?

The big answer is fine motor skills! You’ll notice how we focus on not only the tiny dots, but also using small items in painting or adding to the dots. All of this works on hand-eye coordination and fine motor skills

The letter identification is a secondary bonus!

See ideas for using these here!

Draw, Write Now Book 8 Printables

I am finally done with all 8 sets of Draw, Write, Now printables!

Draw, Write, Now Book 8 Printables

Book 8 features Animals of the World, Part 2 ~ Savannas, Grasslands, Mountains & Deserts. If you aren’t familiar with Draw, Write, Now, you can see the post I wrote when we gave a set away and learn more about them!

You may remember me sharing Book 1, and the printables to go along. These printables are exactly the same, two different options. One for tracing, one for copying. Both have the same drawing space.

Click here to download this set and sets for books 1-7 also.

Thanks to Barker Creek Publishing for their permission to share these with my readers!

School Supply Labels ~ Free Printables

I have wanted to make new school supply labels for years, and make a set I could share with others! Finally I have them done and ready for you and for me! These can be used in home or for a classroom, and include real photographs of the items. I tried to include anything I could think of, even my kids helped me! There are 42 labels in all {not all are shown above}.

They were created one label per page, so you can choose which labels you need AND choose the size of the labels! Not sure how to do this in Adobe Reader? Here’s a simple tutorial below {this page is also in the PDF file itself}

I hope many homeschool and classroom teachers can use these labels!

Download your school supply labels here!
