FREE PRINTABLE DOLLHOUSE
.
We all know that in the realm of toy potential, cardboard boxes rank pretty high. They can be turned into just about anything. Dollhouses are my favourites. Several times, when a suitable cardboard box has come into my care, I have simply tipped it on its side and drawn - windows, doors, and picture frames. And with the help of this free printable pack, you don’t even have to do that - just print the templates, cut, and paste!
.
You can do it with any old cardboard box, but if you are feeling crafty, you can go a step further and use the included plan for building a dollhouse from cardboard. It is scaled for playing with Calico Critters or similarly-sized dolls.
.
The best part? After the children are done with decorating and playing, you can easily recycle the whole thing!

Having already tried winter and spring/autumn clot

Having already tried winter and spring/autumn clothes, our paper dolls are heading into summer with a new set of free printable clothes.
.
Our paper dolls now have two sets of swimming wear – and a ball to boot! They also have a pair of binoculars for bird watching and two hats for keeping cool in the sun.
.
A new free printable available on the blog!

In July 2011, NASA sent their last shuttle mission

In July 2011, NASA sent their last shuttle mission to the International Space Station. Since then, no launches have carried humans into space from the US soil.
.
The long drought should soon be over though, as SpaceX prepares to send two NASA astronauts to the ISS inside a Crew Dragon capsule. This launch is scheduled for Wednesday, May 27.
.
While it is a big event for the USA, it is also a historic mission for anyone interested in space. It is the first time that a private company will put humans into space. NASA has called the mission "a new era of human spaceflight."
.
Could we miss this event? No, especially not when we saw how amazing the new space suits are!
.
We've updated our Astronaut Paper Dolls pack with the SpaceX suit. If you got it last year, you can log in and download the updated version. If not, you can check the whole pack - with eight space suits from the 50s to present days - on the blog.

Celebrate the 50th anniversary of Earth Day ‪o

Celebrate the 50th anniversary of Earth Day ‪on April 22‬! We've made a new printable board game to mark the occasion.
.
Many animals that live on Earth right now are considered endangered. There are currently more than 31,000 species on the red list! That means that, without additional intervention and protection, they will soon join the ranks of the mammoths and become extinct.
.
Our Endangered Animals game introduces kids to the topic of endangered species, threats to their survival, and efforts being made to protect them. We created this board game to encourage children to get to know these animals and to raise awareness of the various threats they face. It is based on the principles of STEM and integrates science (biology) and math (logical thinking and deductive reasoning).
.
We hope that it will encourage children to take further interest in learning about nature and conservation! #earthday2020 #stemeducation #stemforkids #homeschool #homeschooling #bravelearner #homeschoolfun #gameschooling #printablegames #boardgamesofinstagram #boardgamefamily #kbnmoms #stemactivities #earthdayfun

DRAWING IN THE SNOW. When life gives us lemons, we can make lemonade. What can we do when life gives us yet another dump of snow in April?.. We can make snowmen, snow lanterns, and draw in the snow!
.
I don’t know how many of you can expect a dump of snow any time soon, but we discovered, just today, that solid paint sticks, also known as gel sticks, work very nicely for painting in the snow! And afterwards the paintings can be displayed outside. .

ROLLER SKATE... INSIDE. During winter months, the kids often entertain themselves by putting all of their roller skating gear on and skating around the living room. There is just enough space for them to move around, but it entertains them for a while.
.
It is -10 and snowing hard today, so April is officially a winter month, and therefore that’s what they did. #kidsactivityideas #indooractivities #playideas

Celebrate Women’s Day playing a board game, dedicated to famous women from history. Featuring Frida Kahlo, Marie Curie, Rosa Parks, Agatha Christie, Sacajawea, Amelia Earhart, and many more!
.
The game plays similarly to a classic “Guess Who” game, however the players aren’t encouraged to ask about appearances. Instead, they ask about each woman’s accomplishments, based on the icons featured on the cards.
.
“Did she contribute to science?” “Art?” “Did she graduate from university?” “Did she write a book?”
.
Available as a printable on the blog!
