Ideas and resources
Kid Giddy is such a great resource for parents out there! Here, they’ve posted great Sudoku-kids printables…I love that they use shapes, I have never seen that before. They even mentioned possible holiday versions…so fun to use with children.
Looking for something ready made? Check out this Sudoku for kids books. 
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.
Here are a few more quick printable Earth Day activities for your kiddos:
Wow – you guys don’t waste time getting the word out. Thank you so much for featuring my Sudoku Printables! I will indeed have some holiday ones soon and will also have some Alphabet and Numbers pages too in the near future!
Thanks again for sharing my website! You guys rock! -kg
That looks like a great sudoku game for kids. I love the use of shapes.
I’d prefer the shape Sudoku be made with the shapes and colors used on the pattern blocks we already have in our rooms.
How can I get these puzzles?
The link in the post still works, but when I clicked over I couldn’t see the images there. If you click on the box that looks like it should be a photo, it will take you to the PDF you can print out.
