File Folder Fun: Noah's Ark Multiplication

I want to start doing some multiplication memory work this week with Sir N and found this great File Folder Fun game. The goal is to match the multiplication sum rainbows with the correct answer in Noah's ark.




I sourced this File Folder Fun game from Bible Story Printables

Download from:


To print black and white versions you can find the links on Noah's Ark File Folder Fun page, there are also blank versions available in colour and black and white on the same page.

Have fun playing

Winter Colour

I was feeling very cold yesterday and longing for spring when I looked out my kitchen window and saw this show of colour.

Once I had photographed it I decided to go for a walk through my garden to see if there was any more colour about?  I was quite surprised at the amount of colour there was in winter.




 When last did you stop to see what was in your garden ?

This engaging book will keep your children busy for hours.  Each page is filled to over flowing with information.
From the back of the book:
This entertaining book is all about the work people do in different sorts of jobs. Set on an imaginary island called Banilla, it introduces a crowd of interesting people and shows some of the events that happen in their daily lives. There is Mayor Naze, the mayor of Banilla; Ivor Hose, the fire chief and Penny Sillin, the doctor, as well as Manuel Laber, the builder; Honor Toze, the ballet dancer; Phillipa Pale, the dairywoman and lots of others.

Have fun exploring the island of Banilla and carefully examining each page to see the different jobs that people do in and around town.
