and that means kids are home from school and family road trips!!! I've just compiled a set of pencil and paper games perfect for those older kids who are "bored" or while you're on the road or even while they're waiting for sister's soccer practice to get over!
Several of the games in the file are already set up and I've put them in two formats, one to print and use as is with a pencil or pen, the other to put in a page protector to use over and over again with a dry-erase marker.
When we go on our road trips, I put these games in a three-ring binder that has a clear plastic sleeve on the cover. The kids slip the sheet of paper that has the game they want into the cover and pull out their colored dry-erase markers. The binder provides a hard surface for writing and its easy for them to pass the binder back and forth to take turns.
The file also has some suggestions for games that you can play with plain paper (great for re-using all those school papers coming home this time of year-just flip 'em over to the back) and even some game suggestions that don't need pencil or paper at all.
You can get the file here.
I also wanted to give a quick update on the status of Little Pumpkins Preschool. As many of you know, I had decided to take a break from the subscription format of the curriculum. I hope to come back this fall with a new fun format...keep watching the blog!
