Preschool file folders

There are so many great file folders games to help your young children learn. I have printed out several but I love creating my own things as well. Here are some of my own file folders games I wanted to share.

Baseball themed family reunion shirts

This summer we had a family reunion with my family. It has been about 2 or 3 years since all the siblings have been together. My older sister joked about making matching t-shirts but I thought it was a great idea. I had already made matching skirts for my niece so I decided it would be fun to have matching shirts not only for them but for everyone. We also bought matching basketball shorts for all the nephews.

I decided on a baseball theme and color coded the shirts.
Each color represents a family. 

I designed the shirts in Word and then printed onto heat transfer paper. On the back of the heat transfer package, there are directions for how to print your image and how to transfer your image onto the shirt.

For the grandchildren shirts, I had their birth order and names on the back.

On the back of the shirts for my parents it says Coach Papa and Coach Monga; these are the names the grandchildren call them.
Then for all the siblings and spouses it says Assistant Coach.

This is the skirt I made for my nieces.

The grandchildren loved their shirts. I think one of my nieces wore hers almost everyday. It was a great family reunion and was so fun to spend time with all of my family!

Fun Toddler activity with flip books

  

 My little boy likes to flip through things and I needed something to keep him quiet during church so I came up with these toddler flip books. They were so easy to make and he loves looking through them. They are so many different themes you could do and it is great way to keep a little one distracted for awhile, even more four year old likes to look at them. I first laminated them, did a single hole punch in the top corner and them put all the pictures on a single binder ring. Below you will you find a link for some of the flip books I put together as well as a link to the clip art website I used.
