Play it again. You could pause it while you're watching, if you like. And you might like to watch it again more than once.

Each time the counters are moved, what is the same? What is different?

Imagine you are making a similar video but with twelve counters.
What would it look like?

We would love to see your ideas - you could make a video, or you could take photos, or you could draw pictures, or...

Shape Patterns is a sequencing game where you need to complete the pattern of different coloured 2D shapes. It is a multiple choice game with three levels of difficulty. It is excellent for shape recognition and for problem solving.

In the easier levels you need to continue the pattern, but in the more challenging level 3, you are presented with a sequence with the missing element in different positions. This level in particular, is an excellent problem solving activity.

As with all of our games, Shape Patterns works well on an interactive whiteboard.

Ready to make yourself flat and go on an adventure with your students?

This activity is based on the Adventures of Flat Stanley where a flattened little kid goes on adventures around the world.

1. Download the file as a PDF to print off a better quality. Go to File-Download-PDF. If you have a Mac, you will most likely get black squares printing around your Bitmojis as some computers do not like when pictures are cut and pasted. To fix this, save your file as a png and print that instead.

2. I am having my students post their pictures on Flipgrid (which is amazing!) but you could always have your parents email you pictures.

We create Guided Meditations for Kids (and Adults!) of all ages using Guided Imagery to take your child away on adventures near and far! These Kids Meditations are ideal for Relaxation, Sleep, Stress, Anxiety and building a calm and peaceful inner life. Our Meditations are used in schools and homes throughout the world and can be listened to on our App, YouTube channel or purchased for download from our Store.

Guided Meditation and Guided Imagery helps children to tune into themselves, nourishing their inner life which often gets neglected in this fast-paced world. It allows their tremendous imaginations to run free! Our sleep meditations for kids encourages a better sleep, which in turn helps them to be more focused during the day. It also helps them to develop better social skills with their peers and the environment around them.

Today's kids are facing a sensory overload from a very early age from the television, video games, mobile phones and the internet. All of this to some degree can over-stimulate our kids and make it difficult for them to ground themselves again. We aim to teach kids to meditate; to teach them that it can be fun and relaxing and to help them unleash the power of their own imagination. This allows them to go on many exciting adventures from Flying with Unicorns to visiting their Secret Treehouse!

Guided imagery is a very simple and highly effective relaxation technique. It teaches our kids to imagine beautiful and meaningful images that are symbolic to them. These Images can help them feel peaceful, calm and above all: safe. This can have a significant improvement in alleviating anxiety and stress. Guided imagery works on any age group without much effort and is fun to do. Just let your imagination run free!

Our Guided Meditations for Kids are designed specifically as "Interactive Story" meditations, which gives the child the option to choose what they do and where they want to go; to be whoever they want to be. We guide the way but ultimately it is the child who really decides what they would like do and where they would like to go. We act as a calm and gentle assurance who is with them every step of the way. We will keep your child safe at all times and ensure that they have a happy and peaceful experience.

Many studies have been compiled on the benefits of Kids Meditation. Here is a list of just some of them:

I have fond memories of making boats as a child. I remember designing them, creating them and testing them out on the boating lake near where we lived. I want to my children to have fond memories too with these fun and creative boat crafts for kids.

I don't know about your children buy my boys have always been obsessed with water and things that float and boats are no exceptions. We have spent many an hour making our own boats and one of our favourite crafts and activities were our surfboards and windsurf boards for LEGO mini figures.

What kid doesn't love designing, creating and trying to float a boat a that they've made from scratch? It's just one of those classic summer activities that every child has to try! We have a great selection of 20 fun and creative boat crafts for kids to make with things that you have around the home! Your kids will love building these boats, and then the best part - seeing if they float.

Just a heads up, if you are planning to use your boats on open water make sure you attach a line to them, so you can pull them back!

Starting A Gratitude Journal with your child

What if there was a daily practice that could help your kids be happier throughout their lives? In fact, there is! It's called gratitude journaling, and it's a simple practice that leads to increased happiness.

Studies show that practicing gratitude makes you happier. People who intentionally focus on recognizing people and things that they are thankful for-on a daily or weekly basis-report feeling happy for up to a month after the positive affirmations.

Expressing gratitude is also good for relationships. If we focus on the positive things about a person and acknowledge his or her kindness, it can improve our relationship with that person.

Plus, journaling is an authentic writing opportunity that also helps children academically with handwriting, spelling, and sentence structure.

As parents, we can help kids notice and seek out the positive things happening around them. This practice can become a habit that will hopefully follow them throughout their lives.
1. Share Inspiring Read-Alouds
I find discussing a topic with my children is always easier with a good book-and that goes for gratitude, too. Here are two picks to read together with your kids.

Thank You, Mr. Panda by Steve Antony works particularly well for younger children. Mr. Panda is on a gift-giving mission for all of his animal friends. But his friends don't seem very grateful for the presents they receive. Little Lemur helps them to understand that it's really the thought that counts.

The award-winning The Last Stop on Market Street by Matt de la Pena is a beautiful choice for children of all ages. A young child travels with his grandmother on a bus, across the city of San Francisco, contemplating why he doesn't have things that others have. His wise grandmother points out the beauty of what they do have. Once they reach their destination, being thankful for what you do have sinks in deep.

A gratitude journal can be very basic-just a sheaf of paper stacked together and stapled-or something more formal, like a spiral notebook or a more elaborate bound journal. The only other supply that's needed is a writing utensil.

Once you've read a few books about gratitude and have discussed what it means to be thankful, you're ready to introduce the journals.

I like to date each journal entry. Down the road, it's fun to look back and see what we were grateful for at different ages.

Then, the kids are ready to reflect and write down three things they are grateful for that day. This is best done at the end of each day. I like to use gratitude journals right before bed. It's the perfect ending to a day.

Here are a few prompts to help kids phrase their grateful thoughts.

It can take some time for gratitude journaling to become a habit for your child. So, have a set time and place for them to journal each day. Also, you as a parent can model this positive pasttime by keeping your own gratitude journal. The routine will help a journaling habit begin to form-and can help lead to a lifelong practice of thankfulness.
