Kid Friendly Frozen Treats

During the summer, I like to keep some frozen treats on hand. 

 It's a great way to cool down and your kids will 

love eating fruit filled frozen goodies!

You can easily adapt them using what you have on hand

I try to avoid dairy, so I was happy to find a recipe that 's dairy free!

February Valentine Literacy & Math Center Fun

I'ts been awhile since I've created any literacy & math centers. 

 February is one of my favorite months, so many fun ways to teach. 

So, I decided to get back in the swing of things and create a few Valentine Activities.

First, I headed over to Scrappin Doodles and I found a really cute Valentine Train!

 I couldn't resist making a cute Valentine Express Train Activity.

Valentine Express Train Fun

Beginning Sound Sort

Memory Game

Let's Count!

I really love how it turned out!

I also revamped my Valentine Heart Bingo

Now, it is available with 4, 20 or 30 boards!

Valentine Heart Bingo is perfect for your class party, everyone loves to play Bingo!

I found some really cute chocolate & candy kisses graphics, so I decided to make a cute math center:

Valentine Counting Kisses

Here's another Cute Valentine Addition Kisses Activity:

Froggy Fun Printable Thematic Unit

Here are some pics of my new Frog Unit. 

It has lots of hands on learning activities

This is my Feed the Frog Game:

It's great hands on fun and focuses on counting 1-5.

Players each receive 20 flies.

Take turns turning over a card and "feed" the frog the correct amount of flies.
First player to feed the frog all of their flies wins!

Interactive Five Speckled Frogs Book

I love this book! Another cute way to reinforce numbers 1-5 and the concept of taking one away.

Frog Letter Sort

Reinforces recognition of uppercase/lowercase letters.  Place the frog on the matching lilly pad.

You can also use the frog cards for putting the letters of the alphabet in the correct order.

Or, put 6-8 letters in order in a row.  Remove 2 cards and have student find the missing letter.

Frog Life Cycle

This set contains a cute life cycle puzzle as well as sequencing cards.  I found the plastic life cycle frogs at Oriental Trading.

Clothespin Color Word Match

Fun way to reinforce color word recognition.

Ribbit! Ribbit! Math Story Problems

Great hands on way to learn addition and subtraction!

This set is also available ready made in my Ebay shop.

If I don't have one available - just email me and I will be happy to make one for you.

Enjoy!
