Princess Unit with Free Printables

A few months ago I promised Princess that we would do a Disney Princess Themed Learning Time.  

This week I made good on my promise with a full Princess Unit with Free Printables.

Next week we'll be studying Knights to balance things out for the boys.  

I really had a fun time planning this unit and today, it seemed the kiddos really liked it too.

A Princess Race

The kiddos will race their princesses to see who finds their prince first.  

Using the cup of sight words, matching those on the board game, they will move their princesses ahead, drawing one word out at a time until one reaches their prince.

Source: I created this activity, but was inspired by an activity we did during our transportation unit a while back.  For your free copy of the printable, click HERE.  

There is a blank template available as part of the printable if you'd like to write something else in the blanks besides the sight words given.  The printable could be used for math facts or whatever.

Princess Patterns

A Princess' Daily Schedule Telling Time Activity


A Princess' Daily Schedule Telling Time Activity

Princess and Bulldozer are ready to learn how to tell time. Dinomite can always use a refresher.  

I created different time cards sharing different events in the course of a Princess' day. 

All of the events are on the hour or half passed the hour to make it easy for the two little ones. 

The kiddos will match the time on the clock to the time on the cards.

Adding with Ariel Invitation to Play


Adding with Ariel Invitation to Play

This is one of my most favorite activities of the week. Doesn't it just look beautiful?  

The kiddos will take the beach play dough in the middle and divide it into two parts.  

They will then roll the dice, finding the matching numbers to place next to them.  

Next, they will use counters of choice and place them in the "beach sand" to determine the answer to the addition problem.

Castles Around the World


Castles Around the World

The kiddos are super into learning about real life queens, kings, princesses, princes, and castles, so I developed this activity to expose them to all types of castles around the world, but to also review continents. 

Dinomite and Bulldozer loved looking at all the castles today.  

The continent each castle is located on is written on the card, along with the country, for when we're ready to go one step further.

Pocahontas' People


Pocahontas' People

I wanted to expose the kiddos to Native American culture in a safe way, as we've just learned about colonists and they are all familiar with the story of Pocahontas.  

The kiddos will study the pictures, making observations using the magnifying glass provided.  Pictures include clothing, ethnic objects, scenes, and more.
