Creative Ways To Use These Printables:
Here are some fun ideas on how you can use all of these fun math game printables …
Use On Non-school Days/School Breaks or for Homeschooling
There are PERFECT activities for your kids to do at home when they are out of school or if you homeschool.
These take away sums will help keep your kids in the learning mindset to be ready and prepared when they go back to school! But they won’t feel like it’s “homework” because homework doesn’t look as fun as these printables! 🙂
You can also help teach them about different things. For example, for the weather math game, have them tell you the different kinds of weather they see. Double learning!! Or maybe you can bring out the pizza party printable and serve pizza for dinner. 🙂
Use As a Teaching Resource In The Classroom
These printables will make great teaching aids for teachers and homeschooling parents!
Teacher friends, you can use these to help encourage learning subtraction in your classroom! Use the colorable options to make this activity even more fun. 🙂 Or you can leave these as an activity when utilizing a substitute teacher.
Put Together a Learning Binder
Something super fun and easy to do with these – make a fun learning binder for each of your kids!
Print off some or all of these and add them to a binder! I would laminate each printable (or use page protectors) and use dry erase markers, that way they can be used again and again + wipe clean easily.
Here are some other free learning printables you can add to your binders as well:
I hope your child has lots of fun learning and using these fun math printables! 🙂
• Other printables are either functional OR cute. I bridge the gap between the two. Since I'm a single mom and don't have time to mess around and am a kid at heart, I love something that actually propels me forward and gets the job done quickly, while still having that super cute vibe I'm known for.
• I'm a graphic designer FIRST. This means my printables, whether free or paid for, will always be of the highest quality and print crisp and clear on any printer.
• I love what I do and I do the work myself. I'm not hiring these out. This is my life, my hobby, my passion, my heart.
• My fans are obsessed with my work. To date, I've made over $23M on printables alone (organically) in the past 8 years.
Yes! Except for some large binders, all printables on the blog are 100% free for personal use. I make these because I genuinely want you to have something cute and helpful right now without having to spend a dime. You deserve a life that feels more peaceful, more organized, and more you, and if a simple printable can make your day feel lighter, I am so happy to give that to you.
