Find and Color Holiday Printable

Looking for something to keep your child busy as you wrap things up for the holidays that also can improve their speech, language, vocabulary, comprehension and math skills?  I stumbled upon this great “I Spy” printable on Pinterest yesterday.  This sheet has a lot going on in terms of visual sensory input, but if your child is okay with that, then this is a must try.  

I set both my 3 and 6 year old up with it.  Can you guess from the pictures which one belongs to my wild three year old as opposed to my very neat 6 year old?- LOL!  Thomas loved this and enjoyed visually scanning through the pictures to find what he was looking for.  He had trouble with some of the words, but we sounded them out together and he also was counting a lot as he looked for specific numbers of items.  I helped my three year old for a few minutes, but once I got busy with a few things, he began doing it “his way.”  This was fine by me though, because it kept him busy for a good 15 minutes, which is a huge success in my book!
