Looking for Dr. Seuss??

Are you looking for printables to use in your classroom, at home, or in your daycare to celebrate the birthday of Dr. Seuss??  Maybe you just want some fun activities to keep the kids busy on the weekend or after school.  No matter the reason, I have what you need!!

I have lots of free printables to share with you.  In some of the links that I’m about to post, you might find some duplicates, but many won’t be.  Just take your time and browse around!!

On my blog, Commotion from the Ocean of Life, you’ll find a bunch of stuff for “Happy Birthday, Dr. Seuss“.  Once upon a time, that’s where I used to share all my printables that I created!!

Next, some of you might remember the “Seuss-icle Followers Contest” that I held right here on this blog.  This contest lasted a week and I offered freebies each day.  Here you can find each of those posts and see just what I offered each day.

With luck and time, I’ll be creating some new materials this week.  Things have just been crazy busy and I’m barely keeping my head above the water right now!!  Keep your eyes open though and hopefully you’ll see something new featuring Dr. Seuss coming your way!!

Patriotic Calendar and Desk Sets

It’s almost time to go “back to school”, so this week, I’ll be creating and sharing things to use in the classroom (or at home) as we all head back in that direction.  Most will be calendar sets in a variety of color themes, but if time permits, I’ll also be making some other materials.

I call this first set patriotic because I used a red, white, and blue background.  It’s a great background with all the patriotic colors in a fun swirl.

The calendar set includes dates 1-31 with extras like “no school”, “birthday”, and a couple of others.  There’s also a set of numerals for 32-100 for those that use your calendars as a 100’s chart.  There’s also all 12 months of the year, as well as years from 2012 to 2017, so you can use this set for years to come!!  Finally, there’s a set of days to use on their own or use with the yesterday was, today is, and tomorrow will be cards.

In the desk set is a set of cubbie tags and desk plates.  Both include a blank for you to use as needed.  There’s also a 1-100 counting chart.  I also made a set of “home tags” which list several methods that the children go home.  These can be attached to the desk, used as a neck tag, or attached to the backpack.  Had my daughters teacher used these in 1st grade, I wouldn’t have had to be panicked when my daughter didn’t get off the bus!!  Finally, there’s some incentive sheets.  These are larger in size and can be used for behavior, reading, returning homework, or a number of other things.

Here’s a thumbnail view of what the calendar set looks like….

Clifford Calendar Set

I know it’s been forever since I posted.  Life is just busy and I have a lack of creative ideas right now.  I’m hoping with summer here that there will be a new flow of ideas that I can get hot on!!

One of the ladies in my group requested some Clifford – The Big Red Dog items.  One of the things that she wanted was a calendar set.  That’s what I’m sharing with you today!!  You’ll find calendar numbers with some extras, years to 2017, and all the months.  Also, there’s a set of “yesterday”, “today”, and “tomorrow” cards where the days fit in the blank space.

I’m finally back with a new printable to share.  This is a calendar set that features the most adorable little Eskimos.  It was really fun to get back creating again and I hope that you can use it.

The set includes dates, with a few extras and all the months.  There’s also years starting with 2012 and going to 2017.  Lastly, there’s “yesterday was”, “today is”, and “tomorrow will be” complete with the days to fill in the slots.

Cute Monkey Calendar Set

I spent today working on a calendar set off and on for most of the day.  This set is just so adorable, if I must say so myself!!  HAHA  It’s also an exclusive, just for you, my blog readers.  The calendar set would be perfect for a young preschool room as it’s very whimsical.  It’s also very well suited for a monkey or jungle themed room.  No matter what, I hope that you can find a place to use it!!
