As a childminder and having a 5 year old son who loves crafts, I was really excited to be asked to review the Mrs Mactivity website. Its full of fun, unique and creative resources you wont find anywhere else on the internet.
It’s always hard at Christmas as a Childminder (for 10 years) not to repeat activities from previous years, so when I found Mrs Mactivity I was delighted to see resources I had not come across before.
Most of the resources are free, however to gain full access to all of the resources its only £9.97 a year and trust me, that’s a fraction of what I have paid in the past for similar sites.

Kayden was keen to get creating, choosing which activity he wanted to do first.
He found a super cute 3D gingerbread house to make. There was an option to print a coloured one out, but he choose the one where he could colour it in himself.
We coloured it in together and talked about the Christmas details on the house and what he might put inside.
Kayden has been getting really good at using scissors by himself so he liked being able to cut along the lines without any help.
Once it was cut out he glued the clearly labelled tabs.
He needed a little bit of help putting it together but it looked amazing! It even had a little door what opens. Kayden was really pleased with it and said he will leave it out for Santa to show him.
We love Mrs Mactivity and will defiantly be creating more things from the tons of resources from the website.
I think £9.97 for the year is an absolute bargain! If you would like the chance to WIN a years subscription to Mrs Mactivity for FREE then click on my Instagram post below and follow the instructions on the post.
I was kindly given a years free subscription of Mrs Mactivity in exchange for an honest review.

Oh how cute is that Gingerbread house? I love doing activities like this where you can talk about the different aspects of it and the kids can develop their motor skills. Mrs Mactivity has so many great resources, and you’re right- it’s great value for money!
Ooooh this looks great my daughter loves making things so will have to check this out – love the look of the 3D gingerbread house printable will have to have a nosy for other gems!
What a lovely website. My three would love this. His gingerbread house looks fantastic and I could see us using this a lot
That’s a great 3D house. And it sounds like a brilliant resource, especially for us mums who have our kids home during the summer months. Handy crafting activities at the ready!
Mrs Mactivity sounds like such a great resource for ideas to entertain the kids esepcially during the festive period
What a great resource! I’ll have to go check it out for my boys.
Love that gingerbread house. What a brilliant website. I’m going to go and enter to win a subscription as I could really do with this x
Good luck
I’ve never heard of the Mrs Mactivity website and I love finding out about new activities online, especially when they have good printables. I agree with you: it’s a bargain at under £10
It really is a bargain I’ve paid that for one month else where
