Activity / Extension for The 50 States

August 06, 2018 in 50States Resources, Activity

"Happy Presidents Day!!! How I am celebrating with a toddler & preschooler: a U.S. Presidents scavenger hunt & bingo game. I did this last year & it was a hit — I illustrated portraits of a variety of past Presidents using the artwork at the back of the “50 States” book as a guide (link in profile). I laminated the cards and made a bingo-type reference sheet. I hid the cards all around the house and the kids hunted for the Presidents with their Easter baskets. This year we also have President flashcards scored from the #targetdollarspot this summer ///// George and Abe peg dolls available over at my Etsy shop ❤️" -- @the.silvan.reverie always has incredible ideas for her homeschool projects that combine art and exploration and lots of other things, too. https://www.instagram.com/p/BfYUrqfnMOI/?hl=en&tagged=50statesbook
