Ladybug Picnic

At our first attendance to our new little playgroup last month, the other moms were talking about "file folder games." I had absolutely no idea what they were talking about, but was quickly caught up on the conversation by a sweet mama. We concluded playgroup with the decision for everyone to make three file games to share with the other moms at our next meeting (tomorrow). They would be kindergarten level and could cover any skill or topic.  My little sparkler came up with the theme of "Ladybug Picnic" and "we can count ladybugs". So.... here's what I made. It's a counting and categorizing game. Two games in one. :o)

Clicking the link will take you to GoogleDocs. Click on the name of the file to open it. Then use the google docs navigation bar (blue) to select print. This will open the file as a PDF. Then you will print from the Adobe navigation bar.

*** Whatever you do... do not use your computer's navigation bar to print. It will not print correctly.***

Title Page - is glued to the outside front & tab of the file folder
Picnic Board - is glued to one of the inside flaps of the file folder
Number Board - is glued to the other inside flap of the file folder
Ladybug Spots - each ladybug is cut out individually. These are the game pieces that the child uses to place on the Number Board
Picnic Foods 1 & 2 - These foods are cut out individually and the child will categorize them into the four food groups (no sugar)


Let me know what you think. Any improvements?? Enjoy.
