Now that spring is on the way (at least in here in the northern hemisphere), maybe it’s time to get active. Or perhaps you’ve been struck by a sudden need to clear away the cobwebs and spring clean the house. Either way, if you’re hoping to enthuse the kids, you could try rewarding them with one of these fun certificates. If schoolwork is more your child’s thing, there are a couple of certificates for that too. Everyone likes to see their efforts recognised, just print them out and stick the to the wall or fridge.

With the summer underway, (at least in the northern hemisphere – apologies to those elsewhere!), we thought we’d post a short list of our most popular summer printables. We hope you find them useful:

BEST FROM THE WEB:
For anyone looking for more lovely summery resources, here are a few of our favourites from around the internet:
Printable Masks – This site has a great collection of masks to keep the kids entertained this summer, or indeed at any other time of year.
Hidden Pictures – This selection of charming pictures with things hidden all over them is great for keeping children busy over the summer. Like hide-and-seek on the page! They can also be coloured in for extra fun.
The Queen’s Platinum Jubilee is coming up and celebrations are taking place throughout the UK between 2nd to 5th June 2022. It commemorates her being on the throne for seventy years, which is the longest of any British monarch, and no doubt there’ll be street parties aplenty.
If you’re having a street party and want it to look extra pretty, you might like to make some of these cute paper baskets and fill them with treats such as sweets, raisins and peanuts or popcorn.

If you’ve ever felt that you want to add a bit of verse to your Easter card to let that special someone know how much you care, then this post might help. We often get asked for Easter poems for cards, so we’ve created a handful below.
Oh, and if you scroll down you’ll see some printable cards as well, interspersed between the rhymes. We thought they’d be handy for anyone who hasn’t had time to get to the shops and needs something to write in.
Easter Card Rhymes:
Easter Blessings
Gone the winter’s cold and gloom,
Here’s the sun to fill your room,
Here come flowers, here comes spring,
Here come birds that chirp and sing,
Here’s a card to bring good cheer
And Easter blessings to your year!

Oh what fun each
Easter brings!
Chicks and rabbits,
Cute and small,
How we laugh and
Love them all.

Aside your cares,
Time for joy
And peace and prayers.

A Magical Time
It’s that magical
Eastery time,
So I thought I would
Send you a rhyme,
To wish you a
Wonderful day,
Full of dreams that
Will take you away
To a daffodil house,
Or a chocolate sea,
Or a chicken who lives
In an Easter egg tree,
For the very best way
To be clever and smart,
Is to always stay young
In your head and your heart.
With Christmas over and the new year at the starting block, we thought we’d list a few of our favourite printables for January. Some are new and some are old favourites but our site is getting so big that we thought a little list might help make sure there’s no mid-winter magic you’ve missed.
Are you looking for our latest Christmas printables? Well, you can find them on the Christmas area of our site, or just click on the links which interest you below.
Yay, it’s that spooooooky time of year again and time to decorate accordingly! Here are our fave decorations from around our site. Hope you and your family have a scarily good time.
If you don’t happen to live deep inside a magic forest, you can still get that enchanted autumn look with these printable paper leaves. They look gorgeous in any room and are useful for any festival in fall, including Halloween.
Up next are these fabulously witchy pantry labels, for all your potion ingredients. Print and stick on jars and bottles all around your home to turn your house into a veritable witch’s hovel!
Good old-fashioned bunting is always a great fallback for Halloween. By all means print ours – it’s al free – or just use it for inspiration to make your own.
These fun poems with a witch’s spell theme make a lovely addition to your Halloween decor. Just print them out and pin them around the house. Or you could write some of your own!
Are you making jams, jellies or preserves? We’ve added these pretty labels to our pantry label range, and you’re welcome to download and print them for free. We’ve only put the name of the fruit on each label, so that they’ll do for jam or jelly or anything of that kind. Hope you find them useful, and good luck with your jam-making project! x
Ah summer… and colouring. Two of our favourite things rolled into one! Our colouring is aimed at children rather than adults, although grown-ups are welcome to do it too, of course. After all, studies have shown that simply colouring in a picture is good for your mental health – a relaxing pastime no matter what age you are.
We’ve put all our summer colouring faves together below, so they’re easy for you to scroll through. We hope you enjoy them. x
