Fill in the Shape with Pattern Blocks
Today’s pattern block activity templates consist of a fun fill in the shape activity. I made them just by putting random pattern blocks on a piece of paper in such a way that all the pattern blocks were touching. Then, I traced around the outside edges of all the pattern blocks. After I made a… Continue reading Fill in the Shape with Pattern Blocks
Spring Pattern Block Templates
This is week 3 of our pattern block series and Little Bear has really been enjoying the activities.

Both sets of our tot trays in March were for holidays (St. Patrick’s Day and Easter), so it was exciting to put together some tot trays that weren’t related to a holiday. We did a space theme for tot school and I have to say, these were some of my favorite trays to put together. I’m pretty… Continue reading Space Themed Montessori Tot School Trays

Snowflake Pattern Blocks Templates
I recently made these snowflake pattern blocks templates as part of a new “school” system I am going to do with Smiley Man. Since Smiley Man is still pretty young (20 months), I don’t think he will be able to use these pattern blocks templates the “regular” way. However, he loves to play with pattern… Continue reading Snowflake Pattern Blocks Templates

I just love Christmas! Sometimes I’m just a tad overexcited about it. So, naturally, it’s my job as a mother to make my children a tab bit MORE overexcited about Christmas. After all, that is what mother’s do. :) A little while ago I found a free font called Xmas Lights BRK. I downloaded it… Continue reading Christmas Lights Preschool Activities
