C is for Construction printables

Do you have a kid who is super into constructions sites and vehicles?

Our son loves Melissa and Doug reusable sticker pads.

At shower time and sometimes outside the shower, we play with ALEX Beep Beep Bath Stickers. 

I made these fun printables that include a Dot a Dot C is for construction page, letter C maze, and word search.

We recently got a Scholastic book order in and my son just had to have the following:

Good Night, Construction Site!

Mighty, Mighty Construction Site

Diggersaurs is one of my son's new favorite books. It has a cute rhyme scheme.

Check out the book trailer here:

Is Rubble a favorite Paw Patroller in your house? 

Here's a video of his Construction Truck Rescue Game!

If you've got a Blippi fan, here's a construction video. 

If not, skip that one (we did!) and check this more country themed one:

P is for Pirate printables

Are you learning about the letter P and pirates?

I created a few fun printables for classroom or home use.

 

This pack includes: 

P is for Pirate Do-a-Dot and pom pom page

P is for Pirate letter maze

Pirate word search

Download the pack here.

We dressed like pirates and used our Melissa and Doug reusable sticker pad to put ships in water,

This Peg + Cat pirate Hungry Pirates game is fun to play on the iPad and keeps my son busy during remote learning. It's a great way to practice fine motor, map skills, and counting up to 3! I suggest using a desktop as you need to use the arrow keys. 

We read pirate books and did a pirate search and find in our Disney Junior Fun with Friends Look and Find (check out this Jake and the Neverland Pirates one)

We practiced coloring pirate ships different colors and used our Do a Dot markers to make gold coins in a treasure chest, too!

My son just loves this pirate themed take on the Three Little Pigs. 

He sings along with the video every time!

Here is another pirate video / song that he loves.

Want to learn how to talk like a pirate? Go on this virtual field trip where you will also learn how to read a pirate map, use a sword, and name the parts of a ship! 

 

Finally, who could forget the Jake and the Neverland Pirates? Visit the site here.

Music Mania

Music Mania was the choice for our little drummer boy today.

We played instruments from a kit we bought on Amazon

and made our own instruments using rubber bands and food containers, 

watched Brain Pop Jr. videos about instruments, 

played a Music Memory game, 

and sorted instruments by how they are played on BrainPop Jr. 

Daddy even got in on the fun! 

Like always, we listened to tons of music. Here is our "eating" playlist.

Ben’s Trumpet was our book of the day, 

we did Dot a Dot M to differentiate between upper and lowercase letters, 

and coloring wasn’t happening, but I did find this adorable M is for Music coloring page.

Another fun game we found is called Monster Music. Sesame Street characters explore real and created instruments.

We finished off the night with the Disney Family Singalong! It originally aired on ABC, but it's free in its entirety on Disney+ if you have it!

“Ernie Puts the Duckie Down” is a classic Sesame Street video and song. 

Look for some celebrity cameos!

“All You Need is a Song” is another favorite over here, especially with one of my favorite country bands, Sugarland. 

What are your favorite musical activities? We'd love to hear about them in the comments below.

Moose Muffin Monday

It's Mixed Berry Mini Muffin Moose Monday!

We read the If You Give a Moose a Muffin book

and made them with jam,

played with our moose and their friends while "camping."

We did Do a Dot M is for Moose with paint markers

and made letter M with pom poms.

We also made a moose

and took a virtual field trip to New Hampshire to learn more about them.

You can still visit our national parks virtually even though they're closed, and all fourth graders in the U.S. get a free national parks pass. Here is some info for you:

We don't have this kids' camping play set, but it looks adorable!

The t-shirt and campfire pillow are from Target.
