Christmas Word Ladders

A friend of mine that is a teacher told me recently how much she loves giving word ladders to her 3rd grade students. I didn’t realize teachers would prefer them over word searches because they are better teaching tools. Since then I’ve found that they are a little challenging to put together! It’s not easy having to run through the alphabet 30+ times trying to put together a string of words that work!! So that’s why I’m really happy I was able to come up with these Christmas themed word ladders – with Christmas words, no less! Trust me, it wasn’t easy!!

Thanksgiving Word Puzzles

I always think that getting ready for Thanksgiving will be the calm before the storm of the holiday season. Then somehow the month of November whizzes past me and I wonder what the heck happened to my supposedly calm month? This year should be even crazier with everything I have on my plate, but I honestly wouldn’t change a thing. I don’t need Thanksgiving to be grateful for all the wonderful things in my life!

Thanksgiving is a special time of year, especially this year. I started Animal Jr. right before Thanksgiving in 2008, not having a clue as to how huge of a network it would turn into just a few months later! Here are some of my very first printables from that time, Turkey Coloring Pages and these Turkey Printable Masks.

Here is a post of Thanksgiving word puzzles, too!
