Interesting craft/visual aid idea for teaching/supplementing language arts/history.

It started with the paperdolls I had bought my daughter and grew. I had figured out how to add accessaries to my daughters paper doll collection by printing out pictures onto Avery Labels and sticking them onto thin cardboard.

Now it has birthed up to creating entire scenes of what we were learning about at the time. We are printing out pictures of scenery (doing Alaska now), downloading and doctoring pictures of eskimos, animals indigenous to Alaska, tools and things like Kayakes, printing them onto Avery Labels, sticking them onto cardboard and cutting them out.

My boys even are trying to make igloos with packing peanuts.

Say goodbye to your dining room table; but I'm seeing excited interactive results.

That sounds like a fun activity for a cold dreary day!!
I love to hear about your home activities with your children but ..... how do you find the time for all you do?
