    This site is another of my favorites for great printables! She offers a number of themes, coloring pages, crafts and games. "L" also has a great section on Bulletin Board Ideas which you can't find everywhere. My favorites: Alpha Buddies and her cartoon and book characters because my Y5's get excited when I turn them into a skill sheet, bingo dot activity, or use one of her other activities that features one of their favorite characters like Dora or Curious George. If you want to get your little ones excited about a Table Top skill sheet just put a cartoon or book character on it!

    Although it's also a subscription site, there are many "for free" things to be had here. I get lots of ideas just clicking on the amazing amount of subjects offered. They have a terrific selection on every animal imaginable.

    Great site for historical information on famous US people, places, holidays, the 50 states and our presidents. Tons of coloring pages. I use these to make skill sheets from. For example, click on your state and you can print your states quarter when you study coins.
