With St. Patrick’s Day coming up soon, here are some fun ideas to get your lesson plans rolling in the next few weeks. Rainbows and shamrocks just make me smile – and also make the house so bright and cheerful!

Shamrock Stamps

With a pipecleaner, paint, and clothespin you are well on your way to making this cute shamrock stamp from Sunny Day Family.

Rainbow Busy Bags

Rainbows are one of my favorite activities. The colors just pull you in, don’t they? Visit Powerful Mothering to see how to make your own Rainbow Busy Bag.

Watercolor Shamrocks

Head over to 3 Dinosaurs for a quick and simple tutorial on making watercolor shamrocks.

Shamrock Pretzel Pops

These shamrock pretzel pops from Mommy’s Bundle would be a yummy treat to make for your fun celebration. Yum!

Anyone else ready for some WARM weather? The temps have been crazy in our parts and I’m ready for a little bit of spring to start peeking through! In case the crazies are setting in where you live, here are a few ideas to keep you busy this next week…or two!

Celebrate Dr. Seuss Day

Sheep Crafts to Help Think Spring!

Think spring and start planning some sweet sheep crafts to work on together. In the Madhouse shares 35 Sheep Crafts that are just so cute!

Get Messy with Shaving Cream

Even though she shows some outside fun, this would be a fun indoor activity on a patio door as well – as long as there were towels on hand for clean-up! Visit The Practical Mom to see how they had fun with shaving cream.

Visit Asia with Your Kids

It’s so much fun to travel the world with your kids and have them experience different cultures – from your home. We’ve enjoyed using Little Passports over the years with our kids, and Natural Beach Living shares some fun ideas for learning about the continent of Asia with your kids.

Learning About the Weather

Lindsay from You are the Roots shares a unit that she and her son worked on all about the weather. She has some fun experiments and crafts to share – love it!

That’s the roundup for this week! Link up your learning fun from this past week and be sure to visit another mom and say hi!

Time for some more learning ideas! Last week there were some great ideas linked up to the Preschool and Kindergarten Community linkup, and a few of them are featured below. While being inspired is important for teaching, encouragement is needed so very much for each of us. Be sure to look through the links today too – stop by, read a few links, and encourage each other with comments.

Conversation Heart Printables

It’s time for candy hearts!! Download these conversation heart printables from Tot Schooling to use with your kids and have a little fine motor fun.

Thrifty Art Storage Ideas

Sometime I think that our art supplies multiply when we turn the school room lights off. Tiny Tot Adventures share some thrifty art supply storage ideas you can gather from around the house (or put aside and use later). If the craft collection is going to grow, keep it organized!

Raspberry-scented Playdough

This raspberry-scented playdough from Dabbling Momma would be SO much great for Valentine’s Day. Take your red playdough up a notch – and have some fun filling your kitchen with amazing smells!

February Pocket Chart Calendar Pieces

Hopefully, February will be a bit warmer than the month of January has been for us! If anything you can warm up your laminator and get ready to print and laminate the February pocket chart calendar pieces. {Psst —> Here are some cheaper laminating pouches we use and LOVE!}

 For Mom: Daily Planning Pages

And since each one of us might need help with a little organization, don’t miss this free daily planning pages for the month of February.

Parenting Webinars

If you missed the parenting webinar earlier this week, there are several more coming up this week that you may be able to fit in your schedule. I’d really encourage you to carve out an hour to listen in – and just remember, you are NOT alone in this parenting adventure.
