Introduce your students to what scientists do and have fun creating a Funky Scientist with a printable template.

Lorelai recently caught a few old episodes of Meerkat Manor with my husband and has been asking for a meerkat craft ever since. She decided to paint her meerkat pink with a glittery belly. Your little

I'm a bit late on the Trolls train, but I just had to make this troll craft when my youngest, Maddie (2) became obsessed with the movie. This template is pretty basic- it's just the troll head with

Cheetahs are such incredible animals. I was a bit hesitant to make another big cat craft right after posting the mountain lion craft. However, since its protective status is 'vulnerable' and we are

The last animal we will be doing in our Rainforest study is the capybara. This animal lives in and around the jungles of South America. It's actually considered to be the largest rodent in the world!

Wombats are cute, pudgy marsupials that are found in Australia. My daughter, Lorelai, enjoyed learning about this animal and making the craft to go with it. Looking for another common marsupial

A raven craft was requested when we were doing our desert animal crafts. Lorelai loves ravens -- mainly because she was born in Baltimore, MD, home to Ravens football team. She crafted her raven with

Q is for... quail! A big thank you to the reader that requested this AGES ago. We are just now getting around to it, but better late than never! I love getting suggestions from you. When I'm drawing

We seem to be on a sea animal trend lately! I've recently posted a hermit crab, a crab, and a lobster. Lorelai used to be TERRIFIED of squids, but she was all giggles when making this one (she thought

Having grown up near several farms, there was never a short abundance of opossums. They were the stuff of nightmares to my 10-year-old self. Of course, I only saw them threatened and scared - hissing

I'm writing this post with my eyes closed, and I'm assuming you're reading with your eyes closed, too. Doesn't everyone dislike (um, hate) spiders as much as I do? Yes? No? Ha! It was pretty difficult

I said last week that we were finished with our Endangered Animals unit, but I was wrong. I decided to re-make a few crafts because the originals were cartoon-y and Lore had forgotten about everything

This little guy turned out so cute! This was another request of Lore's from her animal encyclopedia. She saw the picture and immediately wanted to do 'one of those lizard things that Rapunzel has...

I made this printable over a week ago, but we just got around to doing it this afternoon. Lorelai was excited about her "boat" craft and just plowed on through it. The story behind the craft wasn't as
