Printable Spring Bingo Cards

Bingo is a fun game to play with a group of kids at just about any age. These printable bingo cards from Crafts on Sea have spring images and only use pictures, not words, so they’re great even for kids who can’t read.

The cards have grids of five images in each direction, and there are 10 different cards you can print to use with a small group. If using in a classroom you can have kids pair up to play together if needed. Or just make more than one copy and you’ll have more than one winner (or test how well people are paying attention!).

You can even use spring-themed markers like tiny chicks or pastel colored buttons. Or jelly beans or M&Ms if your players can be trusted not to eat their markers.

All About Sudoku for Kids

I’m in deep denial about the fact that new year is almost upon us again! It’s been the fastest and the longest year at the same time, and I can look back and see some good things as well as some things I wish had gone differently.

Doing a year in review with your kids — whether in the classroom or at home — is a good way to capture some of their memories and the things they really liked about the year gone by.

There are a lot of different printable year in review worksheets you can use if you want to make this super easy. Here are links to a few (often part of larger posts about NYE celebrations with kids that are worth a read, too):

Teach Beside Me has lots of fun printables fro the end of the year, including a year in review that covers favorite memory, funniest memory and the best book they read, among other topics.
NurtureStore‘s version has space for a self-portrait and prompts like favorite toy, best day out this year and future dream job.
Remember favorites, their “best idea” of the year and have room for setting goals for next year with this one from The Keele Deal.
The year in review from Yes We Made This has room for drawing or writing and includes things like something they learned, a memory they made and a place they visited.

Of course you could pretty easily make your own year in review for the whole family to do that asks questions based on what you most want to remember. (Favorite video game? Best friend? Favorite family memory?)

And if after the year in review you’re ready to look ahead a bit, Mrs. Merry has new year’s resolution printables to inspired kids to look ahead and set goals for things they want to try. You can totally fill this one out as a grownup, too.
