Students create a Waterfall Craftivity for the holidays. The waterfall makes up the front page - writing activities are included on the 2 inside pages and the back cover. This craft includes graphics for boys and girls.
Watch the video to see how it is made ...
What is included:
A total of 11 templates for students to choose from:
- 3 base templates (with writing activities about Santa, elves, Rudolph, etc.)
- 3 waterfall templates
- 4 sets of pictures for waterfall templates (presents, wreaths, candy canes, stockings, etc.)
- 1 glue template
Students create the Waterfall Craftivity using 1 base, 1 waterfall, 1 set of pics and the glue bar. So, there are lots of options for everyone. The Waterfall Craftivity closes for easy transport home.
Note: It is so much easier to watch the video than to try and follow written instructions so that is how you will learn to make this product.
What you need:
Just photocopy on regular photocopy paper. Students will need coloring pencils, scissors and glue.
Students will be proud of this craftivity because it really is unique and fun. Check out the video and have a look before you purchase to make sure you love it and that it is right for your students!

Two really simple Easter crafts! Easter Sunday - pictures of a church, the cross, a bible, a family and room on the craft for students to write something. The second craft entitled Everything Easter contains pictures of bunnies, chicks and eggs.
Students will color, cut and then glue together these Easter crafts! They are two great Easter keepsakes. Have your students make the craft ahead of time and use them to decorate the classroom. Best of all, the Easter Boxes are large enough to hold a treat or two from their favorite teacher!
Made from regular photocopy paper (8 1/2 x 14), all students require are coloring pencils, scissors and glue (glue sticks recommended).
Included are two versions of each craft - a smaller and a larger version. You decide which version will work best with your students.
Suggestion: You can try using cardstock instead of regular paper for a sturdier finished product. As well, I bring in colored straw and a treat for the inside of the boxes! Students love this!!!!

This is for MOM / MUM or a generic banner students can use for a gift for Grandma, Aunt, etc.
These MOM Banners are a great Mother's Day craft that your students will love to create and the Mom's will love to receive. I made sure to create a template that is generic for students who want to create for a female other than Mom.
There are 7 banner options to choose from. I have included step-by-step directions and visuals to help you create these banners. I have also provided a template for students to write a message to a loved one.
All students require are scissors, coloring pencils and glue.
You need to have 1 1/2" ribbon for each student and a hoop to hang the banner. I buy bracelets at the dollar store. They come 4 or more in a pack for $1. And, they are large enough to fit around most door knobs so MOM can hang her banner on her office door. You do need to cut squares (4 x 4) ahead of time for students or bring the heavy cardstock to class and have your students cut those squares. All other templates are included in the package, all you have to do is photocopy.
Note: I think this is a great craft for most / all grade levels. The one you see in the preview is the one my nephew (grade 4) made for his 48 year old mom. She loved it!!!
I know how difficult it is to find something to make for Dad's on Father's Day ... well, here is something unique! And, it's not all about ties!!!!

This is a really great Mother's Day craft!
Includes step-by-step instructions and templates to create three unique Mother's Day Crafts - Tea Pot, Tea Cup and Saucer, Tea Sachet.
Each product is made from just one piece of paper! I have created these products on legal sized paper so that each teapot stands about 6" tall and cups and saucers are sized accordingly. The Tea Sachet pouch fits a standard sized tea bag.
Light card stock, glue and scissors are required. The Tea Sachet will also need some ribbon and tea bags as inserts. Of course you can make all of these products with regular paper but light cardstock just makes a better finished product!
Some templates are pre-decorated and some templates have been left blank for students to decorate as they desire.
