FREE Draw the Other Half Symmetry Sheets
Did you enjoy doing "Draw the other Half" Sheets as a kid? For some reason, I really loved drawing symmetric images when I was in elementary school. There was something very satisfying about carefully creating matching mirror images. So today, I'm sharing these FREE printables with you. :) Hopefully, your kids will enjoy observing the picture, counting the different parts, making measurements with their eyes, and drawing. Have fun!

How to Build a Paper Air Skimmer Sleigh (FREE Printable included)
Looking for a really neat winter STEAM activity to make with the kids? A few months ago, my eldest son came back with a really cool paper skimmer that he made at school. They followed this paper skimmer tutorial on YouTube. The directions were great for older kids, but my youngest wasn't able to make one easily. So I came up with an easy printable that we could print out, color, fold, and race. :) Both boys loved using it so much that I'm sharing it here! With it being so close to Christmas, we called them our paper skimmer sleighs.
