As a mom, packing for a vacation can get those stress levels rising! Not only are we packing for ourselves but we are also responsible for the kids and sometimes, the fur babies. Now that my kids are a little older, I thought it was time to pass some of the pre-vacation responsibilities to my boys.
I needed a system that was simple, straight forward, and easy to read and explain to my kids. This "Pack Your Bags!" free resource, provides written text for readers, pictures for non-readers, and gives them the control of checking things off the list as the get things done.
If there is one thing I have learned from my background in child development, it is that kids love multiple forms of sensory input. This resource provides, visual cues as well as the gratification of a check box using a marker or pencil to mark completion!
This resource provides kids with the opportunity to:
-Work on their counting skills
-Work on identification skills
-Learn the written word for the objects
-Provide a sense of responsibility
-Provide an opportunity to work with colors if you want to get more detailed. My kids need all the help with matching they can get!

I can't wait to hear how you use this resource.
