Here’s a great collaborative art project for a classroom or a family. Hattifant has a Christmas tree winter activity printable that’s a whopping 18 pages.

Inside the tree is an elf factory with a bunch of elves getting set for Christmas. Print it out, assemble and color, or you can give different pages to people and assemble it once it is colored in.

Either way, the finished tree is so cute and will be a great activity for a class or even just to color by yourself.

You can get the download from Hattifant on Etsy.

Coloring in sheets are a great way to calm the busy mind, as you focus on the coloring techniques your brain is actually able to calm itself and focus on less. Coloring is used to help relax and calm anxiety and stress. Coloring keeps our mental health in check and allows us to develop parts of the creative brain. We highly recommend Scrapbook.com for quality marker pens.

Christmas coloring in pages are a great way to keep everyone occupied during the holidays. Not only are they fun and engaging for all ages, but they can also provide a plethora of benefits for their participants.

For starters, Christmas coloring in pages are a great way to encourage creativity and promote self-expression. By providing a variety of different designs to choose from, children and adults alike can explore the limits of their imagination and create unique pieces of art. This can be a great way to help build confidence and boost self-esteem.

Christmas coloring in pages can also provide an effective way to relieve stress and anxiety. The act of coloring in can help reduce levels of stress hormones, such as cortisol, while also inducing feelings of relaxation. This can be a great way to help everyone unwind and enjoy the holiday season.

Finally, Christmas coloring in pages can help to foster family unity and connection. By sitting down at the dinner table and coloring together, family members can enjoy some quality time that is both fun and productive. This can be a great way to build bonds and create lasting memories.

All in all, Christmas coloring in pages are a great way to keep everyone busy at the dinner table. They provide an effective way to boost creativity, relieve stress, and foster connection and unity. So why not give it a try this holiday season? You’ll be glad you did.

Resources for Learning about Squirrels

Did you know that October is Squirrel Awareness Month? I didn’t know we needed more awareness of these little creatures, but let’s take it as a sign to learn more about squirrels!

Let’s start with some fun facts via Kids Konnect: did you know there are five subfamilies and more that 280 species of squirrels? The smallest are pygmy squirrels and the largest, the Bhutan giant flying squirrel, can be longer that 4 feet (1.2 meters).

Tree squirrels can climb down trees so fast because their ankles can rotate 180 degrees, allowing them to grab the tree bark as they go down. While most squirrels don’t survive their first year of life, they can live five to 10 years in the wild and squirrels have been known to live up to 20 years in captivity!

Rhythms of Play has more fun facts and tips for observing squirrels if you want to add some real life nature to your nature study.

We always like to start these collections with life cycle and parts of the animal printables, so let’s grab the squirrel life cycle an parts of a squirrel worksheets from Montessori Nature. (It doesn’t look like these are free any more but they have a whole unit study on squirrels you can buy that includes life cycle and parts activities, characteristics of different kinds of squirrels, a printable poster, information about predators and more.)

Grab the squirrel lapbook printable (free with email address) from Homeschool Share to learn the parts of a squirrel, where they live, what they eat, whether they hibernate and more. There’s also a nut taste test printable, a place for making observations about squirrels, life cycle of an oak tree, games and more.

Simple Everyday Mom has some cute squirrel themed worksheets including tracing the letter s, labeling the parts of a squirrel and a letter s maze. She also has more activity pages with a squirrel theme, including matching, a more traditional maze and a counting and graphing activity.

Work on letter recognition with this squirrel and acorn game printable from Teaching Mama. I love the idea of hiding the letters in a fall themed sensory bin for kids to find, identify and match to the letter on the worksheet.

For older kids you can do this “if I were a squirrel” writing prompt from Lesson Planet.

And throw in a little counting with these squirrel and acorn tens frame printables from JDaniel4’s Mom, which you can use to count real acorns or any other little fall themed thing you have handy.
