Welcome to our pages of FREE resources...  
You will see a vast change from the previous format.  And make NO mistake this is a
VERY VERY busy page, as are the others which follow on...
All too often we were
requested to add links to free resources that were in fact not free at all... Please report
broken links and if you do know of a worthwhile site offering free teaching resources I will
be only too pleased to place it  in these pages.  Thank you :)

The pages are long so bear with them as they load... it will surely be worthwhile waiting :)
 Also please report broken links as these links are external and I cannot monitor each one
of them... I suggest that parents and educators review each and every site before
allowing their child to access it... Please read our
Terms of Use . Also remember that is
unwise to leave a child unattended when working with heat, matches, a stove or fire,
small objects, paints, scissors or glue.  A child should under every circumstance be
supervised by a responsible person  when attempting arts and crafts of any nature.

Here are the much promised free  & almost free resources !! :))
