Activity Bags

I love putting activities in bags to take on vacations. I was excited that I was able to fit 19 small, paperback books in a zippered pouch! We don't have to worry about not having enough to read next week :)

Most of the books are free books that came in Cheerios boxes, a few are from Chick Fil A, and the princess series is from Avon.

Here are a few more activities that we'll take with us on vacation. I also plan to add a sewing cards bag.

Tangram Activity Bag

I'm still here, and here's my 1st post bloggy drama post :)



Thanks to Amy at Let's Explore for this great tangram activity and links! To make this activity I printed the small tangram pattern and used it to cut tangrams out of craft foam. I put magnets on the backs of the pieces, so they would stay in place and be less frustrating for my girl. I printed the animal tangram pics, laminated them, cut them, and hooked them together using a book ring. Everything fit nicely in a zipper pouch. O is a little young (almost 3) to do tangrams on her own, but we've had fun doing it together. I'm planning on taking this activity on our upcoming beach trip.



Also, check out Let's Explore for free shipping on orders more than 25 dollars! I love a good deal on shipping :)
