What is a Busy Binder?
- A busy binder is an interactive "binder" of activities for young learners to complete again and again.
How can I use the Busy Binder?
- Morning work
- Morning Basket
- School Work
- Supplemental School Work
- Quiet time
- Traveling
- Something to keep little ones occupied while at the doctor's or a restaurant
- Etc.
How Do I Set Up the Busy Binder?
Supplies
- Binder or Binders or if you choose you could bind with a binding machine and spines
- Velcro Dots: thinner vs. thicker (I have used both and while I love how much cheaper the thicker ones are, I LOVE how much less space the thinner ones take up.)
- Laminator
- Laminating sheets
- Hole punch (if using binders)
Prep
If you are putting your activity pages in a binder, simply print, laminate, and hole punch each of the pages and add to a binder. Each of the files come with directions for prepping each individual activity (ie what to cut, where to put Velcro etc.)If you are using a binding machine, simply print, laminate, and then run the pages through your binding machine and snap them together with a binder spine. And as mentioned above, each of the files comes with their own individual activity directions.
