We've got lovely, simple mazes for younger kids and a couple of really fiendish mazes for older kids (or adults) here, covering cars and trains and planes and trains and buses ... perfect for summer holiday journeys perhaps!
More alphabet fun this week with another set of playdough mats - this time asking children to think of things they can model with their playdough with beginning letter sounds to match the letter on the mat.
31st August 2017 will be the 20th anniversary of Diana, Princess of Wales' tragic death in a car accident in Paris.
Learning symmetry was very dull when I was at school! I certainly didn't get the chance to play with symmetry worksheets like these ones, which ask the kids to reflect half of a butterfly, spider, grasshopper and ladybird (ladybug)!
We've got quite a good collection of animal fact finding worksheets at Activity Village - well over 50, actually, now that these new minibeast fact finding worksheets have been added.
We have five new simple dot to dot pages with a transport theme, perfect or younger children. Click through to find a ship, aeroplane (and an airplane version), car, lorry and bus.
Just print, cut out and assemble these gorgeous new teaching clocks ... we've designed them to be bright and cheerful and appealing and fun!
Learning to tell the quarter hours - quarter past and quarter to - can be a little confusing for kids. You can give them plenty of practice with our newest set of telling time worksheets though!
I've just added 8 new mandala colouring pages to the website. This set - which can be downloaded in one pdf file - are quite a bit more detailed than our last mandalas, so everyone can really enjoy colouring in the intricate designs.
... and set of "round the clock by quarter hour" packs of posters which can also be used on your desktop, tablet or screen as a slideshow.
The kids (and maybe even an adult or two) can have a go at these fun new word puzzles based on a transport theme.
... with a transport theme! The pictures vary in difficulty so you should find something to suit various ages and abilities. Some tie in with other topics too - the fire engine or tractor, for example.
If you are heading for the seaside this summer, or looking for ways to decorate the classroom ready for the season to change, you might want to have a look at our latest collection of photographic posters.
We've got some simple transport pictures (like our car and aeroplane) and some quite tricky transport pictures (like our old-fashioned caravan and steam train) in this new collection of "complete the picture" puzzles.
Anything you can do to help children learn to recognise the shape of letters, both upper and lower case, is well worth it - but if it is as fun as a playdough mat, too, well that's a bonus!
These are part 1 of a Member request. Part 2 (colouring bookmarks for the Months of the Year) will be coming soon.
Whether you use these playdough mats as an extra activity when studying animal habitats, or you bring them out for some fun creative modelling, they will provide a fun backdrop to the animals, birds and other creatures that the kids create.
... including upper case and lower case, plain and patterned or outline font for finger tracing, with pictures and without, large and small and in-between, double-sided and single-sided!
Here is our second big batch of telling time worksheets - this time "drilling" the half hours. We have 6 different types of worksheet to choose from, using the time in words, on analogue clocks and on digital clocks.
A few of our Members requested more photographic posters, so we are rolling out more throughout out Topics as we revisit them.
