Christmas is coming… ever so quickly!

There is always so much to do leading up to Christmas, and so much to think about, but hopefully you haven’t been getting stressed with Christmas shopping, menu planning, or packing bags for a trip! In the next week, we won’t be doing any of that, but we will be busy packing boxes to move house!  Not an ideal time of year to move, but sometimes that’s they way things happen!

Have your children finished school for the year and are on holidays?  If so, you are probably keen to keep them busy while you are busy preparing for Christmas, or writing Christmas cards if you haven’t done so already!  We do have a great solution for you!  Subscribe to our Imagine. Make. Believe activity magazine… today!  It will keep the kids out of mischief for many hours, and the projects are easy enough for children to do themselves, although younger children will need some help.  There is even a play and finger puppets to keep them entertained!  Games, puzzles, recipes, craft, sewing and lots more… 70 pages of fun!  Once you subscribe we will send you a link, and all you have to do is download your family’s copy!  At $4 an issue*, it is great value, and as cheap as cup of coffee!

Our cute Christmas Nativity Scene Colouring Picture will also help the kids sit quietly for 15 minutes as they colour in.  Just click on the Nativity Scene Colouring Picture button below, print the file, and grab 15 minutes of peace in the craziness of Christmas!

Do you love playing with paper?  We do!  We are always amazed at what you can do with one piece of paper.  It is such a versatile material!

Today we introduce you to our new Free Play with Paper series!  Free Play with Paper are free printables that you can print off and the children can cut out, glue together, and play with.  They include stand up people and animals, buildings, and other props, and can provide hours of free play, as well as help children make up their own stories.

From each issue of our Imagine. Make. Believe magazine, we will have a set of Free Play with Paper printables.  They will be available in a coloured version, as well as black and white, perfect to colour in!  Keep an eye out for our Royal Set, available soon.

Do you love nativity scenes? We love the Christmas story – the birth of Jesus, and all the miracles that surrounded his arrival into the world, and so we love nativity scenes too, as they remind us of this precious story.  If you don’t know the story, head over to this link for the historical account.

JJ, our 11 year old team member, and Janelle have been hard working behind the scenes to bring you a very cute set of nativity scene printables!  

All you need is a printer connected to your computer, scissors and glue (we used a glue stick), and if you choose the black and white version, coloured pencils, felt tip pens or crayons.

With our nativity scene printables, we have tried to include all aspects of the Christmas story, with the Magi (wise-men), the star, the shepherds and the angels that appeared to them, the animals, the manger (feed trough), Mary, Joseph, baby Jesus and a background scene.  That means your children can act out the whole Christmas story with all the paper pieces, but they can also use them with our other Free Play with Paper sets once they are available.

To get started, click on one of our nativity scene printable buttons below.

We would love to hear what you think of our nativity scene printables, and it would be great if you could send us a photo if your children do anything super creative with them!

Free Fun Friday – Royal Colouring Picture

Royal Picture - Imagine. Make. Believe, magazine, children, activity, colouring, coloring, theme, carriage, castle, prince, princess

Royal Colouring Picture, children, royal magazine, colouring sheet, royal, carriage, castle, prince, princess, free This week’s Free Fun Friday is a tiny sneak peek into the first issue of our Imagine. Make. Believe digital children’s activity magazine!  In each magazine we include a colouring template, that can be used for colouring in, but it can also be used to decorate with collage, make a card, use in games, and decorate presents, gift bags and envelopes, among other things.

Also in our magazine we have some very cool themed drawings and pictures that help build the theme of each magazine, and give inspiration to the children beyond the activities that we have provided.  It helps stimulate their imagination!

We have included most of the drawings from our Royalty and Castles Issue of the Imagine. Make. Believe magazine, into our new Royalty and Castles Colouring Book that is now available in our shop.

JJ is our main illustrator (and yes, he is only 11), with ideas also coming from the rest of the team, but mostly from Annie and Janelle.  We decided to share with you one of the pictures from the magazine that is not included in the colouring book,  but it is such a great combination of ideas, and a combination of drawings.  Here it is in the magazine:
