  • Friday Freebie – Paper Dolls

    Happy Friday! I spent a lot of time in front of the computer this week, so I am looking forward to accomplishing some hands-on projects this weekend! Today’s freebie goes right along with all of the other doll posts that I’ve shared this weekend.  These adorable printable paper dolls are from Royalbaloo.com I know a lot of people who think that preschoolers are quite gentle enough for dolls, but I love to use paper dolls in the classroom. They teach children to treat materials carefully, and they offer far more opportunities to make choices because there are so many different pieces and I could never hope to have that many real…

  • Thursday Freebie

    I know, you’re used to Friday Freebies, but since this weekend will be so crazy, I didn’t want this to get lost in the holiday shuffle!
