Printable sails
Ice Boats

To make ice boats freeze water in a muffin tray, cover in cling-film and create a slit in each one to slide a popsicle stick in. The cling-film holds the popsicle stick in place whilst the water freezes.

Whilst the water is freezing cut out and laminate the sails. Use a craft knife to cut two slits- one at the top and one at the bottom. Also prepare a tray of water.

Once frozen remove the cling-film from the muffin tray, slip on the sails and remove the boats out from the muffin tray. You are now ready to play!

'In the Garden' Pre-Writing Cards

Pre-writing shapes and lines are an important pre-requisite to letter formation and useful to practice in playful, non-pressured ways.

There are many different mediums for mark making other than pen and paper that kids will enjoy. Some ideas include dying a tray of salt with a drop food colouring, using coloured rice or oats, or squirting some hair gel into a Ziploc bag before sealing.

penguin-ice-rink
Penguin Ice Rink

This is such a fun activity for kids! If you don't have the PlayTRAY, any smooth surface will work to skate your penguins. To make the skating penguins snap some lolly/ popsicle sticks in half, stick them to the base of a mini muffin tin with a bit of blue-tack and fill up the holes with water. You might want to add a tiny bit of food colouring too if you like.

Put them in the freezer overnight. Once they are frozen and you are ready to play, pop them out of the tin. You should now be able to peel the blue tack from the bottom so that they glide smoothly across your tray. Then stick the penguins to the lolly/ popsicle stick with a piece of tape.
