A set of cards showing Thanksgiving images with an optional tab which can be folded before lamination for extra strength and to obscure the face of the card when turned over. These cards are designed for the purpose of playing a ‘Picking up Pairs’ memory game to match the pairs, however they may be used in other ways such as part of displays, feely bag activities, etc.

Thanksgiving Pictogram Chart pictures designed for children to not only think about their favourite Thanksgiving object, but also realise that others may not have the same favourite. In addition, children begin to learn about simple graphs and charts. Ideal for use in a classroom, preschool, nursery or childminder setting. Children do not have to necessarily complete the activity at the same time, but a chart can be added to a display and individual children can add their own favourites at appropriate times.

These sheets are made for children to think about the characters from the story and record their thoughts.
These thoughts can be written around the pictures by the children if they are able but equally valuable if scribed by an adult.
The discussions and ideas are the most important part of this activity!
At the end of the pack is a short question idea card to get the discussion started but add as many other questions as you like and encourage the children to ask their own questions too!

Have fun with this set of ‘Little Red Hen’ Activity Challenge cards. Great for exploring the story further! The suggested movement activities will bring elements of the story to life and embed ideas securely through active learning.
Perhaps children could stand in a circle around the pile of cards and take turns to pick one for everyone to do. Once the children get to know the cards they will be able to relate the action to the picture without necessarily needing the card read to them...For example an adult may be able to simply hold up a card and everyone will be able to do the activity together!
Great for physical development, descriptive language, sequencing, understanding the world, number recognition and turn taking.

Great activity to inspire sequencing and listening skills.
Why not start by describing the pictures? Encourage your children to describe what they can see. Do they recognise the characters and objects from the story?
Can your child(ren) help you to place the pictures in the order they happen in the story?
Once your pictures are in the right order, perhaps you could read one of the story segments. Can your child(ren) indicate which picture they think it matches with? Continue to do this until you have the outline of the story.
The amount of adult involvement in this process can be determined by the age and level of your child(ren).

Set of 20 cards. Use appropriate number of cards for your children in an invitation to play or adult led activity. These cards may be used in a number of ways. Placed facing up on a table, children can simply match up the pairs placing them next to each other or alternatively, they may want to collect them as they go. A further challenge could be a memory and turn taking game of ‘Picking up Pairs’. The cards are made with a tab which can be folded before lamination in order to strengthen the final product. This also means that when turned over, the pattern on the front can not be seen.

‘Our Favourite Toys’ Pictogram Chart pictures and banner designed for children to not only think about their favourite toy, but also realise that others may not have the same favourite. In addition, children begin to learn about simple graphs and charts. Ideal for use in a classroom, preschool, nursery or childminder setting. Children do not have to necessarily complete the activity at the same time, but a chart can be added to a display and individual children can add their own favourites at appropriate times. Simply place any of the eight large toys on the first page in a horizontal line to form the base of the chart and children can add their own favourite smaller toy above to create the vertical lines of a chart. The lengths of the lines can be compared and number of toys on each can be counted to find totals. Questions such as ‘How many children like toy cars?’ may be asked. To really extend mathematical thinking, questions such as ‘How many more children like playing with footballs than marble runs?’

Set of toy themed picture cards with matching description cards. Descriptions intended to be read by adult role-playing as a customer in a toy shop, e.g. “I would like a small toy with wheels.” Child(ren) can then look at the cards in front of them and decide which one best fits the criteria. In this case there are two toys with wheels, the smallest of which is the toy cars. Great for listening, observation and problem solving skills.

Have great fun with your children whilst all acting out different weather with this set of 6 Weather Activity Challenge cards. Perhaps children could stand in a circle around the pile of cards and take turns to pick one for everyone to do. Cards could equally be shrunk down and placed on a key ring to take out on adventures or featured on an indoor or outdoor display board and referred to with everyone carrying out the activity on floor space in front. Once the children get to know the cards they will be able to relate the action to the picture without necessarily needing the card read to them...For example an adult may be able to simply hold up a card and everyone will be able to do the activity together! For those children who are exceptionally engaged, these cards explored in sequence could even be set to music as a dance performance! Great for physical development, descriptive language, understanding the world and turn taking.

Have great fun with your children whilst all acting out Winter sights with this set of 8 Winter Activity Challenge cards. Perhaps children could stand in a circle around the pile of cards and take turns to pick one for everyone to do. Cards could equally be shrunk down and placed on a key ring to take out on adventures or featured on an indoor or outdoor display board and referred to with everyone carrying out the activity on floor space in front. Once the children get to know the cards they will be able to relate the action to the picture without necessarily needing the card read to them...For example an adult may be able to simply hold up a card and everyone will be able to do the activity together! For those children who are exceptionally engaged, these cards explored in sequence could even be set to music as a dance performance! Great for physical development, descriptive language, understanding the world and turn taking.

Have great fun building your own stories! Simply select 1 of the 3 differentiated template sheets. Then select a character (6 to choose from), a setting (6 to choose from) and an object (6 to choose from). Stick them into the appropriate boxes at the top of the sheet and let your imaginations run wild!
How much input is required from an adult will depend on the child. The ideas vocalised by a child could range from simply telling you what the items in the boxes are to a fragment of an idea about what might happen with the character and the object in the setting, to a fully fledged story with a beginning, middle and end.
A child’s thoughts can be scribed by an adult or drawn/written by the child. Ideal prompt for story ideas/ writing/ mark making.
Why not use in conjunction with our ‘Lollipop Puppet Set’ or ‘Character Building Pack’?

Sound cards with individual imagery and lettering to enable quick recognition in pre-reading children. The cards are designed to encourage the children to have fun exploring vocal sounds they could use to make distinct sounds for each one. Alternatively you could explore objects in the world around which may make these sounds. Once sounds have been assigned to each card, games can be played such as ‘Call and Response’ where an adult may hold up the card to create the sound and the children copy. With the most engaged children you may wish to make more than one sound to create a rhythmic pattern for the children to copy and then encourage them to investigate their own rhythmic patterns!
