Ah, the grey days of January. The holiday fun and chaos is over. Here are a few links for coloring pages and other east activities to do with your little ones.
The Responsibility Project--free pdf guide and dvds with tips for teaching kids responsibility (It seems to be sponsored by Liberty Mutual.)
I also have links on my website at An Enchanted Lett, on the Freebies page. Here's a sampling"
Wuzzles and Puzzles--free printable puzzles and mazes
Seussville--games based on Dr. Seuss
Kaboose--online games, crafts, contests, downloads, more
Dover Publications--free clipart, coloring pages, more
J's Magic--free clipart and backgrounds
Plus I found several interesting sites listing out-of-the-ordinary "holidays" to celebrate almost every day:
Dailyholidays.net
List of January Holidays and Special Days
January Bizarre and Unique Holidays
2009 Holidays and Observances
Did you know January 8th is Bubble Bath Day? It's also National Joy Germ Day--as in spreading the joy! It was founded by Ms. Joan White in 1980 to promote a positive outlook on life, and to encourage everyone to spread joy, something the world sure needs more of right now. Who knew being contagious could be a good thing?
Lastly, the week of January 8-14 is Universal Letter Writing Week. What better way to spread some joy than to write a heartfelt letter to someone you love, admire, or are grateful for?
Have a good one!
