I had gotten a few requests for a printable of the little yoda file so here you go!
printables, room, star wars in printables, rooms If you want to have your own pirate party ( or just have cute lunch bags for field trips) I thought I'd share with you my printed pirate bag file.
I printed straight onto the paper bag from my regular printer. To do this you'll need to tape down the bottom and the top together so it doesn't get caught.
Put the bag in your printer according to directions and print! I changed the settings to match the size of my bag in my printer dialog before I printed. I didn't have an issue with any of them. You could use these for popcorn, chips, nuts, goodie bags etc!
If you want to print these pirate bags you can download the files here!
diy, inspiration, party, printables, theme weeks in DIY, Pirate, food, inspiration, parties, theme weeks Every spy needs a way to send messages to his partner. The circle decoder is the perfect tool!
You can have your kids make their own or print out this one
Cut out the circles
Arrange from smallest to biggest and use a brad in the center to attach them together
Now you're ready to create a message and decode!
You'll need to decide which code you're going to use. You line up the "A" on the smaller circle with the letter on the larger circle that you've chosen. Some do the first letter of the day of the week so today would be W for Wednesday. We wanted to be cryptic so I chose "V" for this one. When writing your message use the outer circle for plain english and the inner circle for the decoded message.
Once the message is written out - mess up the decoder so not just anyone can figure it out. The person decoding will need to match up the "A" with the secret letter (in this case "V")
You use the outer circle for the plain english message and the inner circle for the decoded message. So in this case he found the "O" on the inner circle and change it to "I" to decode.
Now you have a way to send special messages. To make it harder you can run all the decoded letters together!

activity, holiday, inspiration, play, playtime, printables in activities, holiday, inspiration, play, printables My youngest really wanted to do Cookies + Milk Valentine cards this year. We didn't find much in the way of printables and he wanted something very "grown up" looking (not babyish or "girlish") so I whipped up a quick printable for him and thought I'd share it here as well!
We have to do pre-packaged tag still on treats at our school so we still need to buy individual packs of cookies but I wanted to package one up so you could see how the printable came out. We got swirly straws at the party store - they had really cute heart ones but not enough for the whole class.
You could even pop a Valentine joke in there too!
CLICK HERE to download your own Cookies + Milk printable, they are 2 per page, just trim and staple.
