📌 General Organization and School Supplies:

- 📝 Buy a notebook 📒 or composition book 📓 for a new journal. The Dollar Store has tons of really good journals this time of year! You can also get stickers to decorate the front if you can’t find a journal you like enough on its own (or if you do and just love stickers, like me).

- 🗂️There are also many options at the Dollar Store for organizational items, especially at back-to-school time: binders, folders, lap tables, pencil holders/bags, and book holder things. You can use these to store crafting supplies, and to organize workbooks, picture books, coloring books, and the like. I wouldn’t recommend getting pens at the dollar store, but they have cute pencils and crayons! ✏️🖍️

- 📖 School workbooks for whichever grade level feels akin to your little age. You can also find some worksheets for free online that you could print off and store in a folder.

- 🧱 Counting bears, counting blocks, or a toy abacus for mathematics. If there’s an education store near you for teachers, you can look for these there. I’m sure you can buy this stuff online as well.

- 📏 A ruler for measuring and drawing straight lines.

- ✂️ Scissors, glue, construction paper, blank paper, and crayons/markers/colored pencils for making crafts.

- 🎼 An instrument you want to learn or pick up again. Ones from Elementary school like a recorder, or ones that are just smaller and could be easier to learn like a kazoo, kalimba, calypso drum, or other types of percussion.

- 🌎🌍🌏 Children’s atlas for learning geography.

- 💳 Library card, for checking out all sorts of books.

📱 Helpful Apps and websites:

- 📚 Hoopla and/or Libby for ebooks and audiobooks, free through your local library.

- ▶️ Youtube—you can find lots of educational stuff here!

- Puzzle Page (has a lot of the math games I mentioned)

- Lumosity (different word and math games)

- NYT games (lets you play a daily wordle, mini crossword, and a few other games for free)

- Sudoku (there are multiple free options for apps or just online)

- Storygraph—log books you read and write reviews of them.

- https://www.multiplication.com—math games for kids

▶️ Educational Shows and Youtube Channels:

- Scishow kids

- Arthur

- Sesame Street

- Cyberchase

- Word Girl

- Story Bots

- Nat Geo Kids

- Daniel Tiger’s Neighborhood

These are just a few suggestions! If you have any other ideas of educational apps, websites, or shows, feel free to comment on this post!

1 YEAR OF ACTIVITY NIGHTS IS THIS SUNDAY!

A simple night where we played discord activities on launch has transformed into a biweekly VC session full of sus jokes and trying to breathe through laughter, and I felt it was fitting to do something special... So I'm hosting a very special 1 year anniversary! It's got everything:

We play notable activities and games from across the year (Putt Party, Amogus, Mario Vs Luigi, Gmod)

I'm hosting a competition where we play 5 randomly selected games from across the year (a list of 20), the winner will receive a special prize I will announce on the day!

Plus tons of other games and activities that we feel like playing

The night begins at 6PM BST and will run until we get bored, usually around midnight. Other timezones in event description!

Hope to see you there!

This Pom Pom Painted Easter Egg activity is a fun way to get in some fine motor practice with the kids, and to explore painting with different materials.

Materials

•   White paper shaped as an egg template

•   washable paints

•   pegs

•   coloured pom poms

Activity

·      The children colour-matched the pegs which made the activity into a simple colour recognition exercise before using them to paint.

Using the pegs to hold each pom pom, the dipped a pom pom in the corresponding paint colour, then use the pom pom to make a polkadot on their Easter egg.

I've seen these all over Twitter and Tumblr so why not give it a shot. From now until January 15th, reblog and like this post and I will write your URL on a piece of paper and tape it around my city! There is NO boundaries to where I will put these papers. Here's how it goes, If you like this post you get 1 piece of paper with your URL on it. If you reblog this post you will get two. If both, you get 3! If you're following me, the numbers are doubled! The more pieces of paper, the more likely someone with a tumblr is going to find your URL and follow! I will ALSO be randomly messaging(on anon) everyone who likes and reblogs this! I don't care if this get's 1,000 notes. I don't care if this gets 5 notes. I thought it would be fun! Let's play!
