Easter Bunny Puppet

, by . Leave a Comment

Puppets are a lot of fun in the classroom or at home for storytime or just creative play with little kids.

This Easter bunny puppet from Red Ted Art is super cute and simple to put together. The only sort of specialized equipment you need to put it together is some brads so that the limbs can move independently.

I love that there are printables where the bunny is different colours, as well as a plain one to save ink and so kids can color and decorate their bunny themselves. There are also printable accessories for the bunny or to use in storytelling, making this a great simple activity to keep on hand for your kids.

Grab the printables from Red Ted Art. The set is $3 on her Teachers Pay Teachers page.

Earth Day Printables and Activities

I know doing printables for Earth Day doesn’t sound very eco friendly, but it does give you a chance to talk to kids about how you can make the classroom or the home a little greener by only printing what you need, using low ink or only black and white printing, printing on the back of other pages, using recycled paper and recycling what you can when you are done.

These Earth Day printables help kids learn about Earth Day or use earth designs.

Pre-K Pages has Earth Day math printables, including a dice rolling game with a recycling theme, graphing, number grouping and sequencing activities.

123 Homeschool 4 Me has a variety of printables for Earth Day including writing prompts, plant life cycle worksheets and links to other activities.

A Dab of Glue will Do has a little printable emergent reader book that explores the basics of Earth Day and some things we can all do to be kind to the planet. You can print it in color or black and white and have kids color it themselves.

Speaking of coloring pages, Preschool Mom has a collection of coloring pages with color versions that you can use as posters in the classroom as well as having kids color the black and white ones.

I love all the printable hands on activities from Differentiated Kindergarten, which help kids build fine motor skills with an Earth Day twist. You’ll find printable mats for use with playdough, geo boards, snap cubes, pattern blocks and Legos, as well as a Q-tip painting activity. You can get these when you sign up for emails.
