First Freebie

If you subscribe to my blog I will give you the link to this printable I made the other day.

I'm starting pre-school with my 3 1/2 year old this year, so I'm making file folders like mad. So much so I thought about investing in a laminate machine. Then I realized I can have anything I want laminated from my local AEA (Area Education Association) for just $.50/foot! File folders work really well on their big machines, and I'm not running to the store all the time to buy lamination supplies (which would probably make us broke!).

I went last Friday and dropped off a whole folder of stuff for the gal to laminate, and by the time I got back from running my errands it was done! All I had to do was cut, cut, cut! I've made 4 file folders- 2 regular and 2 tot lap books. My son loves using the dry erase marker on them and then erasing it! I've made Robots, Word World, Thomas and Chicka Chicka Boom Boom folders.

I found my great lap books and file folder downloads over at http://1plus1plus1equals1.blogspot.com/
The other blog I'm using is: http://totallytots.blogspot.com/ . Starting with these two blogs has given me a lot of content and free downloads as well. Now I'm trying to keep them organized on my computer until I need to print them out. Hubby is going to be upset if I tell him we'll need to order ink cartridges for the printer every month- at $200 a round (we buy 2 sets of everything). It's just not something we can afford to do once a month, or even every other month!

This weeks' letter has been R... Robots, Rainbows, we even made this Rainstick from Enchated Learning. My son couldn't stop adding beans in ours, so it's a little too full!

Next week the letter is S... so I'm printing out file folders to make.... like Shapes, Seasons, Stars, and maybe even making a file folder based off the book of Stone Soup!


Which is why, if you email me at: sarah979c(at)gmail(dot)com and tell me you subscribe to my blog, I will send you the link to this download.


p.s. I have another free download for tomorrow- I made it last week- it's a simple Summer Banner!
