Thanks to one of my favorite crafty blogs - The long thread - I stumbled upon some really neat web sites that offer free printables. Since my daughter is recovering from pneumonia, I wanted to spice things up and make it extra fun around the house. We printed out some paper dolls and had fun dressing them up!
These paper dolls would make a sweet last-minute stocking stuffer too.
*Note: I did print these out on card stock, which I recommend doing so that they are sturdy.
Here's the links:
Plus we printed some lovely gift tags:
And from The Toy Maker, we printed out these butterflies. Simply tape two pennies in the circles on the butterfly and ta-da! They will balance on your finger.
And then I found a web site called First School. I love it. There are so many great activities to print. Our favorite is the Christmas Tree Colors and Shapes Activity. I cut out the shapes and my daughter glued them to the tree, matching the shape to its place on the tree. We talked about shapes and colors. We also did the Santa Wreath Shape and Color Activity.
