Round Robin: St. Patrick's Day Lapbook

Amy is hosting Round Robin today. Stop by her blog to check it out!

Here is a link to a great St. Patrick's Day lapbook.

My 4 year old niece is coming to visit this week so we are going to introduce her to lapbooks. :)
I've printed one of these out for her and my daughter. Since they are different ages, I have different stuff for each one. I also printed out coloring pages for them to color and put on the front. In art class they are going to make a watercolor rainbow and put that in there as well.
If you've never tried lapbooks check it out. They are a fun way to learn! I even make my own. You can also add things to customize it for your child.

Coloring pages & activities:

I use coloring pages and activities that I find online to add to the lapbooks sometime. Since my niece is only 4 I got some "trace the letter" coloring pages for her. I just saved the coloring page and then inserted it into Word and changed its size to fit in the lapbook.

I'll post pictures of them when the kids finish them so you can see how they turned out.

You can read my other post about lapbooks here. It has a picture of one in case you've never seen one and want to know just what I'm talking about. I used to hear people talk about them all the time and I had no idea what they were!
