Christmas Bingo & Books

One of our Christmas advent activities was to play Christmas bingo.  I found these cute printables on Pinterest and thought we could incorporate our Christmas books with our bingo game.  

Each person got a bingo card and then either Daddy or myself read one of our Christmas books.  After we went over all the pictures on the bingo card together, we listened for the words in our stories.  Just like in regular bingo, we used little counters to cover the words we heard while listening.  

It was so much fun to sit around the table, read books and play a game that my 3 1/2 and 2 year old can actually "play".  Anna "got" it much more than Drew, but he stuck right with us playing with his counters and listening to the stories!  

Print some off and play with your family tonight!!  Make some memories!!

DIY Sea Shell Matching and Memory Game

This is a super simple activity to put together for preschoolers.

We used some of our beach shells we collected and some colored star stickers to make a matching and memory game.

So easy and so fun!!  Makes we want to sink my toes in the sand right now!

Family Memory Game

This family memory game has been on my to-do list since I saw this post from Charla Anne.

It took a while to find all the right pictures, print them and cut them out, but the finished product is so seriously awesome.

My daughter loves playing this game and it's really neat to see all the pictures.  I bet it will be even cooler in a few years when my two kiddos are older.

It would be an awesome birthday or Christmas gift too!
