Free Printables Set for a Fun and Organized Thanksgiving

By Dana

Thanksgiving day is just around the corner. Everyone is looking forward to seeing their loved ones from near and far, and spend time together. If you’re hosting a Thanksgiving dinner, you’ve probably already started the preparations. But if you haven’t, there is no need to worry. There is still enough time to set everything right for the big feast. We’ve prepared some helpful tips and free Thanksgiving printables that will surely make your family’s celebration run smoothly this year. 

Thanksgiving is a food-focused holiday and planning out the menu is very important. Since even the main cook should get to enjoy a stress-free Thanksgiving, preparing some of the food in advance is always a good idea. Frozen desserts and side dishes are especially easy to make before the big day, so you can sit back carefree, eat the delicious food and enjoy your company.

Decorating the house prior to Thanksgiving day will also help you have a relaxed holiday. These printable labels will help you put some finishing touches to your festivities. For example, you can use them to make a welcoming Thanksgiving banner and hang it at the entrance. Just print the stickers, cut them out and attach them to a thin rope in front of your house. Make sure you write appropriate text on the stickers, wishing everyone a happy Thanksgiving.

You can also decorate the table with these multipurpose stickers. Use them to mark which guest is sitting where, to label the food or make an interactive Thanksgiving craft where each guest will write a blessing or thankful note on a sticker and apply it to a board you previously prepared for that purpose. 

 

Print some extra stickers for Thanksgiving, so if kids get bored before dinner, you can let them make festive creations to keep them entertained until turkey time.

Since Thanksgiving dinner is always a gourmet feast, leftovers are inevitable. Re-packaging Thanksgiving goodies in food boxes and using colorful stickers with nice notes to decorate them can be a great ending to a great holiday. Everyone loves tasty Thanksgiving leftovers. This special gesture to send part of the delicious feast home with your guests will surely impress them.

Happy Thanksgiving and enjoy the holiday!

Spring Time Bingo

I'm so excited to be here! I'm Krista and I blog over at While He Was Napping. It's been my little corner of the blogosphere since 2010. I have three little boys that keep me busy and a husband that keeps me sane and grounded. I am usually wading around in a sea of Tonka trucks, Thomas trains and Hot Wheels. While He Was Napping is my little island in that sea of testosterone where I get to escape into fun recipes, kid's activities, digital design and maybe even a sprinkle of glitter.

It's been getting warmer around here and the trees are even starting to blossom. This is my favorite time of year in the desert. Everything is pretty and green... well, there's a little more green and a little less brown. The temperatures aren't so high that you have to stay inside during the day; the evenings are a nice mix of chilly and just right while the mornings are just brisk enough to make you grateful for the sunshine. Spring. I think this is probably my kids' favorite time of the year too. We get to play outside: ride bikes, go to the park, eat ice cream on the porch swing. We are gearing up for Spring Break and I can't wait to have less structure in our lives for a few days to just enjoy this gorgeous spring. We also love games. So, to combine two of our favorite things of the moment, I made up a game for my kiddos. Spring Bingo. We've been playing it the last couple days and it's perfect for my 3 and 5.5 year olds. Because it's picture matching, my 3 year old can play by himself and my 5 year old still enjoys the game too. If you would like to get your own copy of the Spring Bingo game, you can download the PDF, save it to your computer and then print. The files are formatted to 8.5x11" and you'll need Adobe Reader to access them. Don't worry it's free and you can download it if you don't have it already. There are three different game board styles and a sheet of bingo cards. Print all the pages, cut the cards apart (laminate them, if you want) and then find some fun markers to use. We used cheerios and my boys played for about 20 mins in an endless version of the game. They loved it!

Turkey Table Fun Coloring Page

Adrienne from Free Time Frolics

Hello Dee Dee Followers my name is Adrienne and I blog over at  Free Time Frolics. I am super excited to share with you my Kids Table coloring page today! 

 Every year when I was little, my grandmother would set up a kids table for all the grand kids at Thanksgiving and Christmas. We would all sit around and wait for dinner to be served. I would have loved having a coloring and puzzle page to color while I waited for dinner to start.  So for my kiddos this year I made them a coloring place mat.  Just like the kids get when you go to a restaurant.  I added this adorable turkey crayon holder for the table decorations and voile. Your kids table is ready for those hungry kids!

 For added decoration you could make my Turkey Crayon Holder. Give your kids a little something to do while you get Turkey dinner on the table!

Spring Fling: Easter S'mores

Hello! Sara from the Homespun Hostess here with a quick Easter treat. I have included both the

EASTER S’MORES and the HOPPY EASTER 5” wide bag toppers free so you can create these too. I like to shop the dollar store for treats that can be repackaged. I found these adorable white chocolate bunnies and with just a little green “grass” and a cello bag made it look a little more like a boutique treat. Another fun one is Easter S’mores….because kids like s’mores all year long! We make our s’mores with bunny peeps as our marshmallows and chocolate eggs as our chocolate. They are cute as can be with all the goodness of a classic s’more. I hope you enjoy these easy treats for classrooms or the special kids in your life.

Spring Fling: Printable Spring Banner

 Hi everyone! I'm Holly from Paisley Petal Events where I like to share stylish parties, fabulous printables, crafts and food ideas to give you unique inspiration for EVERY occasion. I'm excited to be here on Dianna's fun blog to share a colorful Spring printable with you! I'm just like everyone else on this planet who's soooo looking forward to Spring. We keep getting hints of Spring here in Utah and then it gets cold again....I'm ready for the warmer weather and sunshine to stay! Now that St. Patrick's Day is over it's time to pull out all your Spring decor and brighten up your space. I'll admit, I'm a total printable junkie...I LOVE printables! So today I'm sharing a bright colored Hello Spring free printable banner. I love using banners for holidays, decorating and parties of every kind and I especially love pretty printable ones where all you have to do is print, cut and hang. I'm all about quick and easy!
In case you haven't made a printable banner before, here's the quick rundown: 1. Download your PDF file and save to your computer. 2. Print the pages you want on heavy cardstock. You can either do this from your home printer or send the file to a local print shop like Office Depot (my fave!) or Staples, FedEx Kinkos, etc. 3. Cut out the banner shapes with your paper trimmer or scissors. 4. Use a hole punch to make 2 holes in the top 2 corners of each banner shape. 5. Thread your banner shapes onto ribbon or twine and hang. I usually just use some clear tape to hang my banners. If you need your banner to have a little more weight or oomph, I sometimes back my banner pieces with cardstock, as I show here. To make your banner you will need some coordinating ribbon or twine and scissors to cut out your banner pieces. Click HERE to download your free Hello Spring printable banner. Depending on how big your space is, you can either print both words or just 'Spring' if you want! I hung mine from my sofa table in my family room, but a mantle or mirror are both great places for seasonal banners as well. Thanks for having me Dianna! I can't wait to see what everyone else is sharing! For a cool Easter idea, check out this pretty Easter placecard holder:

Brody has a new favorite game that I want to share with you. This is a great game for the family or for preschool age children. It's simple to put together, helps kids practice drawing, it's free and your kids will have a blast playing it. It's called snowman race. Each player rolls the die and then draws the part of the snowman pictured. Whoever finishes their snowman first wins.

 I got the snowman race printable for free at Education.com. They have loads of free coloring pages, games and more. All you have to do is register and you will have a ton of great printables at your finger tips.
