Halloween Grid Games from Teach Mama

You'd better hurry for this if you want to make some good use of it for Halloween!

Amy over at Teach Mama has created a variety of Halloween themed Grid Games for her children and is happily sharing them with you.

What's a Grid Game? I'll let Amy explain it to you, The premise of this game is super-simple, but the early literacy skills it reinforces are really worthwhile. The goal is just to fill your board with small objects--that's it. The way players do that is by counting their way through each row, depending on the number rolled on a die or the number flipped on a playing card. There's lot more detail about ways to play on the Teach Mama blog too.

Not only are there pumpkins but hats and cats as well. So go grab these and have some very spooky fun with your little ones.

Transportation Card Game from Monkey See Monkey Do

Sandra from over at Monkey See Monkey Do has these Transportation Cards available for free download.

You could always print 2 copies of the 12 cards, depicting various modes of transport for a match up/memory game or you can use the name cards to match the correct name to the images.

As a third option Sandra has also included a set of questions that you could use as discussion starters with your preschooler.

Questions like, 'Which one travels on tracks?' or 'Which one travels on the ocean?' will be sure to get you and your preschooler talking about all things transport.

Jump on over to Monkey See Monkey Do and grab yourself a copy of these now.

Label The Flower Matching Game from 1+1+1=1



Carissa from over at 1+1+1=1 has created this cool tool for labeling the parts of a flower. It would be great to go along with a Plant/Flower Study. Use it as one off and have your child glue the lables on or laminate it and they can use it over and over again.

There are 3 parts to the download, the labeling mat, the cards and the answer sheet. You can download them all at Carissa's Flower and Plants Lapbook Page.

3 Letter Word Game From Homeschool Creations

Jolanthe from Homeschool Creations has just uploaded a cool 3 letter word game that she created. The game includes 20 pictures and the matching uppercase and lowercase word tiles.

I'd recommend to print this on cardstock and laminate it so that it stands the test of time. Great for those beginning readers and spellers.

Go visit Homeschool Creations for your copy of the game.
