Laminated Activity Pages

Once again, it has been a while since I've posted anything. I've been keeping myself busy lately. This time of year when things are starting to cool down, I get sooo excited because autumn is my favorite time of year. Since I plan on cramming my calendar full of fall activities, it's time to get my house organized so that I don't feel depressed looking around at a cluttered house when I come home from a fun day of fall stuff. Anyway, more on that later...

I have a confession, many of you may not know this about me, but I am a celebrity grandma. My grandchildren's names are Milli, Geo, and Bot...you may know them better as Team Umizoomi :)
My little one LOVES Team Umizoomi! For her birthday, she wants a Team Umizoomi party, she has the Team Umizoomi dolls (which I purchased HERE), she wants to watch the show all the time, and wherever we go, Team Umizoomi follows, whether I see them or not. The other day I told my little one that Team Umizoomi had to go help other girls and boys, when I was told that Milli, Geo, and Bot are her children and need to stay with her. I suppose they are going to be with us for a while. So I decided it would be a good idea to go back on Nick Jr.'s site and see what kind of Team Umizoomi stuff I could find. They have a lot of stuff. Here are the links to what I printed out...Bot's Belly, Hidden Picture Pack, Puzzle Pack. I have also printed out a bunch of Peppa Pig stuff too. Sometimes I'm Mummy Pig, she's Peppa and my husband is Daddy Pig, her little brother is George and her little sister is Peppa too. Anyway, I printed everything out, well not really, there is a lot more on their site, but I had to cool it because I printed out a lot of coloring pages and stuff from Disney Jr. too. After all of the printing, I decided to start laminating some of the stuff so it can be used over and over again. Here is a sampling:










 
And there is plenty more where that came from :)
 
I also found something that I thought was kind of cool. It's called "Counting the House" I found it here. So what you do is give this to your little one and have him or her go around the house and find and count all of the items on the page. I think it's a fun way to get little ones to grasp quantity and counting, so it also got laminated.
 

 
So anyway, that is a little of what I've been up to lately, but there is more to come.
