Most everyone probably had a short week and fun making lots of Thanksgiving crafts, but we’d still love to see them, so be sure to link up below. Hope you all have a wonderful time with your families!

Here are a few ideas shared during recent link-ups.

Jamie from Coffee with Us 3 shares the Advent calendar that she made {on the cheap}. Super cute idea and really simple to put together with the kids.

Lindsay from One Beautiful Home shares some Duplo Number cards that she created for her son. This is a great hands-on way to learn about numbers with your kids!

Deb from Living Montessori Now shares over 40 Christmas sensory tub ideas. There is definitely something here that you can use with your kiddos!

3 Dinosaurs shares a fun watercolor wheel that her family worked on based on the book Monsters Love Colors. I love that they use watercolor pencils {a different medium than watercolor paints} for this activity!

Motherhood on a Dime has an amazing preschool curriculum called God’s Little Explorers. This 28 week curriculum is normally $14, but through December 1st you can pick up your copy for $10. ALL of her profits are being sent to an orphanage in India to help raise the $38,000 they need for a building project. Use the coupon code givethanks to save $4.00!

And don’t miss the December pocket chart calendar cards that are free to download! The set has three color and graphic choices so you can work on patterns with your children while working on calendar time.

November is bringing in some much cooler weather in our parts and the leaves are almost all off the trees now. It’s hard to believe that we are just a short time away from Christmas already {ack!}.

Last week there were some fun link ups with the Preschool and Kindergarten Community. Here are a just a few to highlight…

Thanksgiving is just a few weeks away and this fun feather matching game from Teach Beside Me would be so much fun to put together! There is a free printable to download to go along with it.

This little caterpillar from The Fantastic Five is so cute it makes me want to pull out a stash of Eric Carle books. Spelling out your kiddo’s names with the pieces makes it extra fun!

There are so many kids in our home that would LOVE the Glowing Shaving Cream that Where Imagination Grows shared! There may be a ‘dark party’ in our house soon!

If you are looking for a few Thanksgiving printables, grab a copy of the Thanksgiving Printable Pack {for Preschool and Kindergarten} and also the Thanksgiving Number Sort.

 

That’s it for this week. Thanks so much for linking up and sharing your ideas with others!

For the most part, it’s been a little bit quiet on the site and in social-media land {and may be for the next little bit}. You can read more about that here.

BUT – you all are still linking up some great ideas and they definitely are fun to share and highlight. Here are a few from last week’s Preschool and Kindergarten Community link-up.

Magnetic Activities

Living Montessori Now shares a roundup of activities for learning about magnets. She includes links to free printables and fun ideas, and be sure to check out her new site design {the trays at the top are too cute!}.

Painting with Tea Bags

There are always random tea bags around our house, so painting with tea bags would be a activity that would clean a few things from our cupboard, and it would smell great! Check out how Teaching 2 and 3 Year Olds worked on it with her kids.

Seasonal Snow Globes

Learn about the four seasons and make some fun snow globes at the same time. This is such a fun idea from Life with Moore Babies!

Link up your learning fun below and share what you’ve been doing together. Don’t forget to stop by and visit a few other people linky up too – encouragement and comments are always appreciated.

Sometimes there are things you all share that make me want to run to the Dollar Tree, grab a ton of supplies, and start creating. I LOVE that feeling! Here are a few ideas from last week’s Preschool and Kindergarten Community that you need to check out.

These Monster Munch clips are great for fine motor work, and Lalymom included some other fun ideas with this activity. And she is right – googly eyes make EVERYTHING cuter!

Pebbles and a sharpie are all that Racheous used to make these CUTE little story stones. They are super simple to make and will keep your kids occupied for a long time to come!

Do all pumpkins need to be round? Why not upcycle a shoebox like Life is Peachy and put together a few shoebox pumpkins. Remember, googly eyes make everything cuter!

A few items from the Dollar Tree are what you’ll need to put together these cute little leaf clothespins and a tree to pin them on. Stir the Wonder will show you how she put her together in this post.

And just in case you missed them, be sure to download the November pocket chart calendar numbers to use this upcoming month. There are 3 different colors and patterns to choose from or use together.

That’s all for this week. Be sure to check the links below and visit a few other sites linking up today {and say hi too}. Thanks so much for sharing your ideas with us all!
