This Free Printable Teaching Placemat post is sponsored by Bounty Minion Prints. I'm a member of the #quickerpickerupper team, but all opinions are my own. Helping kiddos learn table manners is a great tool for life. This free printable teaching placemat is an easy visual aid to get your kitchen helpers learning to set the table for family meals. As the summer progresses, we're actually doing really well with our chores, y'all (nobody is more surprised than this girl). My older son gets up before all of us in the summer (he's one of those people who seem to require very little sleep...he did not get that from his mom). He has the dishwasher unloaded and a truckload of my outdoor plants watered before I'm even stumbling to the coffee pot. He's a dream. Not to worry, it's not all sunshine and lollipops 'round these parts. Brother bear sleeps until ten and then I become a teeth-pulling dentist trying to get him on the chore train (choo-choo...all aboard). After trial and error, we've learned that kiddo works better later in the day. So, table setting is his jam, man. He owns it. I put these placemats together to help him get all of the "tools" in the right spots. While the Emily Post etiquette book my mother gave me as a kiddo was fabulous for a preteen girl like myself, my lil' guy wasn't nearly as excited about that pass down as I *hoped* he'd be (a boy mom can dream, right?). *Side note, I still haul out that book when I set the table for fancier dinners, y'all...it makes my heart go pitter patter.* But, these simple placemats are perfection for my kiddo. We laminate ours to make them super durable and easy to clean up after each meal. To make things easier, I do grab the plates, silverware, and glasses for him (he truly can't reach them since they're in the upper cabinets). This is the queue that it's time for table-setting to commence, y'all. And he takes the job seriously, too. I like that this is a tool that will serve him well in life. Who doesn't love a man who knows which direction to place the blade of a butter knife when setting a table? You're welcome, future daughter-in-law. You're welcome. Besides the visual shapes of the plate, cup, and silverware, I included the sight words, too. This will be awesome for beginning readers to have the word-reminders right in front of them at meals. They'll be ready for those White House dinners in no time, y'all. Adding kid-friendly napkins to our table also makes the process super fun. And, just in time for the Minions movie to hit theaters on July 10, NEW Bounty Minions Prints are a fun and functional purchase for the whole family. And, I mean...who doesn't love a Minion, y'all? My kids are so excited for this one! These cute new Bounty napkins help reinforce a few key manners...one being to not use your sleeve. Ahem. Bounty Minions Prints are a must-have to make cleanup fun for the whole family. After meals, we can also use the Bounty Minion Prints Paper Towels for easy wipe up of our placemats (lamination=perfection). One towel is so durable that it can wipe up all four of our placemats in one go 'round. Like I mentioned above, I laminate our placemats for durability. I upload mine to my local print shop and then have them do the lamination, too. These are 11x17, so printing at a professional place is the way to go here. Mine were less than $5 each for printing and laminating. I've made similar mats like these for holidays and gifts over the years and they last forever with the professional laminating. Try NEW Bounty Minions Prints for the absorbency of America’s favorite quicker picker upper and the fun of Minions rolled into one. Available at a store near you.

Worst Case Scenario Survival Game This is based off the game from the store, but I made up cards that address the "Be Ready" requirements in the Bear Book for Achievement 11. The correct answers are in bold on the cards and their can be more than one right answer. We used the actual playing pieces, die and game board from the real "Worst Case Scenario Survival Game" but you could make your own simple board. To play, before you read the card, have the person whose turn it is roll the die. Someone then reads that person the information on the card. If the person guesses the right answer(s) they get to move ahead however many spaces they rolled on the die. Take turns with however many players you have or you can make two team to make it simple. Click to enlarge and then print the pages below and then cut out to make individual cards. You can also click HERE to go to GoogleDocs and get the PDF files. One of my blog readers created this darling game board for this game: She also wrote up these rules if you'd like to use them.: How to Play-The Worst Case Scenario Will YOU Be READY game Object: To be the first team to reach the Finish. Set Up: 1. Each team selects a playing piece and places it at START on the game board. 2. Place the playing cards face down next to the playing board. Question Cards: 1. Each Worst-Case Scenario Will YOU Be Ready Card has one question and three possible answers. 2. Correct answers are printed in bold Courage Steps: 1. There are 4 Courage Steps: Be Brave, Be Calm, Be Clear, and Be Careful One of the goals of the game are to memorizing the steps to help BE READY in case of a real emergency. 2. The Team who does not move their game piece forward decides which Courage Step the Question relates to and explains why they choose that Courage Step. Playing the Game: 1. The youngest player's team goes first. Roll the die but do not move the playing piece. 2. The other team (Team 2) to the right of the youngest player's team (Team 1) picks a Worst-Case Scenario Will YOU Be Ready Card and reads the question and the multiple choice answers to Team 1. · If Team 1 answers correctly, they move their playing piece ahead the number of footprints shown on the die. Team 2 decides which Courage Step the question related to and explains why. · If Team 1 does not answer correctly, they decide which Courage Step the question related to and explains why. Team 2 moves their playing piece ahead the number of footprints shown on the die. 3. Play passes to the left. Winning the Game 1. The first team to reach Finish wins the game. 2. Teams do not need an exact roll of the die to land on Finish. 3. Winning team gets to decide which scenario from the requirements the den gets to act out while using the Courage Steps
