Guest Post - Roald Dahl Activities
Over the summer holidays we borrowed a few Roald Dahl books from our local library and both my kids loved them. They found the characters so magical and the stories sparked their imaginations.
Guest Posts
Since August 2017 we have featured a weekly guest post, sharing ways in which Activity Village resources can be used for learning at home, crafts with your own children, or group craft activities. There is lots of inspiration here!
Guest Post - Colour Mixing Activities
There is something about being out in the garden in the late summer and seeing all the vibrant colours that makes me think of colour mixing.
Guest Post - September Goal Setting
It’s September. The time of year where beach towels are being washed and stored away, and school books are being taken out and dusted off. The time of year where back to school sales mean cheap shiny stationary.
Guest Post - Ideas For An "All About Me" Topic
I was actually not planning on doing any All about Me activities with the kids but I spotted the Things That Make Me Happy Journal Page
Guest Post - Paper Chain Ideas
I have always liked having visual reminders of what the kids are learning pinned up around the house.
Guest Post - Simple Animal Crafts
As part of our home education work we have been looking at rainforest animals, and my daughter is preparing a project on big cats and their habitats.
Guest Post - Making Mobiles!
My daughter and I recently spotted the Twirly Heart Mobile on the website and thought it looked so sweet so we just had to give it a go.
Guest Post - Enjoying Activity Village's Illuminated Alphabet
Illuminated manuscripts have always held a fascination for me. They are beautiful, lavish pieces of art.
Guest Post - Keeping Records of the Books We Read
Both of my two kids love lists.
Guest Post - The Summer Reading Challenge!
Many local libraries are taking part in the summer reading challenge and my local library is no exception.
Guest Post - Our Puzzle Basket
We are loving the stunning warm summer weather but as much as the kids enjoy being outdoors they also need breaks from the garden and insect hunting.
Guest Post - Flower Collages
We love creating collages. Ever since the kids were little we would select a bunch of items out of the cupboard a basic colouring sheet or template and the kids would create whatever they wanted.
