FREE Subtraction Booklets
Monday, May 4, 2015
I created these booklets a long long time ago when Mavi was just around 4 years old and when he was beginning to learn basic arithmetic. Unfortunately, I changed laptops so I was not able to share these and thought that I lost my files! Good thing Husband recovered it for me so I’m able to share this with you.
Vertebrate Sorting Cards
Thursday, April 2, 2015
Here’s one of my bestseller files, the Vertebrate Sorting Cards! Mavi loves using the files to create a chart of vertebrate animals. Six animal pictures for each animal classification.
You can also use animal figures for this. Our animal figures were from Schleich and Safari Toobs
See how Mavi put all of these into action.
Number Cards and Roman Numerals (with FREE Cards)
Thursday, March 26, 2015
As you all know, we are rowing books from Five in a Row (we are loving this so far!). This lesson in Roman Numerals is in line with the book The Glorious Flight (My son enjoyed every single page of this book! He even made a video narration of this book which you can watch here.). This is the first time Mavi encountered such numbers and he was surprised to learn that the numbers are represented by letters!
I made use of our wooden Montessori number cards for this lesson and roman numerals handwritten on a paper (I ran out of printer ink!). We started off with the units (ones). He got the pattern right away and continued working up to the hundreds.
We stumbled on the thousands as I myself was not knowledgeable of the the Roman Numerals in thousands LOL. We searched the web for the corresponding symbol for this.
He realized that he only needs to memorize a few letters because the representation is almost the same as counting 1,2,3. According to him, he just have to remember that…
He worked on the rest of the numbers with less assistance from me and here he is so proud of his work!
And now, if you are interested you can download your FREE printables of the Number Cards and Roman Numerals by clicking this link. Hope you find this helpful. Thank you! Don’t forget to like and pin this!

FREE Ikea Puppets Matching Cards
Monday, February 2, 2015
As mentioned in my Instagram, Vito (and Mavi!) enjoyed playing these cute puppets from Ikea. Because Vito is starting to appreciate pictures, and learning to identify them, I made each puppet a matching card so we can play a matching game in the next few days.

Learning About East Asia
Sunday, August 31, 2014
If you’ve been following my blog, we started our Asia Unit last month and so far we successfully completed our Southeast Asia Study. In this post, I present to you materials and activities we worked last week for East Asia.
Maps and Flags
As you all by now, we ALWAYS start our continent/country study with maps and flags. This will familiarize the child of the subject’s location and each of the country’s national symbol. For the East Asia, we identified three major countries: China, Japan and South Korea
Materials:
Again, we used Lego to recreate flags. This activity is similar to our Southeast Asia flag activity.
Famous Landmarks
We have painting/crafts activity and Lego play. Our tablet is very useful for this activity. We used it to view pictures (for clear view) and watch videos related to our study.
Materials
- Asian Landmarks Cards for other activities (3-part cards, fact cards).
- Lego
- Paints
- Pink Tissue Paper
Famous landmark for Japan is Mount Fuji
We chose Great Walls of China as our subject here. Here we use our fact cards, which Mavi reads while we view the bigger picture in our tablet.
Calligraphy
We are using the Japanese numbers in this activity. I painted the characters on papers and cut them for presentation. Now Mavi has to make the characters as well.
After the activity, Mavi was like “Mom it is so difficult!”.
Animals
We’ve studied Asian Animals previously, so in this activity we’re doing a Panda puzzle. I printed this from DLTK Kids, and Mavi has to color and form the Panda according to the cheat card.
Arts and Crafts
We made oriental fans and learned how to make origami items. For the oriental fans, we used paper plates, used watercolor for the background and black tempera paint for the details. Our origami papers are homemade because the real ones are so expensive in this side of the world. They’re colored crafts paper and I cut them to a size of 6 x 6 inches.
Books
We used lots of books, but here are my son’s favourites [aff.links]:
- Letters Around the World: China --->> OUR FAVOURITE SERIES!
- Discover Countries: Japan
