Free Downloads - The Idea Room

Hey! It is time once again for our Monthly Printable Blog Hop. 12 creative bloggers including me are sharing our free printables with you. To get them all you simply need to head on over to everyone’s site to see what fun item they are sharing with you this time! There are some really great ideas out there!

Here is what I am sharing as part of my contribution this month!

For the Summer version of our Printable Blog Hop Club, I decided to come up with some fun and simple ideas for the kids to do this summer when you need to entertain them.

I thought it would be fun to have a Summer Advent Calendar or something similar so that the kids can see what they will be able to look forward to doing once they get their morning chores all finished up.

You can display them on an Advent Calendar and set them up for each day…or you can put them in a jar and have the kids pick one out for the day.

Or you can use them as special rewards for kids that are making good choices towards their siblings and following the rules at home. Whatever way you decide to use them, they are a fun and colorful way to be sure you get the most out of those summer days with kids.

Patriotic Hot Dog Trays

3 Comments

I just recently shared these Patriotic Hot Dog Trays as a guest post over at Lil Luna and wanted to share them here with you in case you missed them.

These hot dog trays are so easy to make and they make it easy for the kids (both big and small) to eat their hot dogs while containing some of the messy drips.

The hot dog trays are simply made out of some colored scrapbook paper. The paper is a little heavier weight so that the trays have some stiffness to them. Thinner paper will make it so they are not as sturdy, which may lead to dropped hot dogs and tears.

To use the pattern, simply print and cut out the pattern. Trace around the pattern on your scrapbook paper and then cut out and fold where the dotted lines are. Then simply place some glue on the 4 tabs and glue the tray together. I glued the end tabs to the outside, but either way will work.

And…you can make these for any activity or party where you will be serving hot dogs. You could even use them to serve nachos or sub sandwiches. The possibilities really are endless.

I will be sharing some more 4th of July printables with you for some of the other items you see pictured here…because really…who doesn’t love free printables? So be sure to come back!
