![]() ![]() There are usually several things that I simply can’t pack until the morning we leave, so it’s nice to see those all at a glance. Here are the categories I typically use when we’re going on a family trip: Mom & Dad stuff, Kid’s Stuff, Things for the Carry On (or to keep accessible inside the car for non-airplane trips), and Last Minute items. I intentionally left those headings blank so you can categorize your list however you would like. There are four columns with four empty headings. This printable packing list is a little different than some you might have seen. Or worse – I’m not actually forgetting things we need. That way I’m not trying to keep all the random things in my head. I usually have a packing list printed 1-3 weeks in advance and start filling it in as I think of things that I know need to be taken on our trip. When I’m trying to get all packed and gather up everything for my husband and I, my 2 kids, and any gifts we need to take, having a list like this free printable packing list is essential!! ![]() Unfortunately, we live far away from our families so we always travel over the holidays. ) Our winter tree has been up for a couple weeks now, we wrapped most of our gifts last night, and I spent a lot of today baking gingerbread men and other cookies with my daughter. Isis's Naughty M.I’ve been in a holiday mood lately, so I created this free printable packing list for the holidays which might be a tad over the top, but I love it! (Sidenote: If you want a packing list that isn’t quite so festive, check this out. On Becoming a Domestic and Laboratory Goddess : Th.100 Things You've Done Meme: A Geologist's Version.I Blinded Me With Science! And other great shirts.Geology is learned through the soles of your shoes."How Cell Phones Can Help Paleontologists".Consider it my Christmas gift to all of you. I guess I will start with and post the others on days to come. So, instead, I'll just post the lyrics, and you can hum the tune in your head. I wish I could figure out a way to upload these songs for you to hear, but the anti-Pirate (yaarrr) people make life more difficult every day (you can hear clips here at least). The CD also has Al Roker reading the story from the Dinosaurs' Night Before Christmas. ![]() It contains five "Dinosaur-Christmas-Holiday" themed songs, set to traditional Christmas/Holiday tunes, such as: Hey, Duckbills! (Jingle Bells), The Allosaurus Chorus ("Hallelujah Chorus" from Handel's Messiah), Hark! The Pterodactyls Sing (Hark! The Herald Angels Sing), Deck the Halls with Stegosaurus (Deck the Halls with bla bla bla), and We Wish You a Dino Holiday (We Wish You a Merry Christmas). Probably the best (although best in a completely goofy and possibly eggnog intoxicated type of way - if you are into that type of thing) is the CD that comes with the book. Not to give anything away, but a fun sidenote - Santa-saurus is played by a ceratopsid - so that is worth something there, right?!? The back cover of the book tells me that "a portion from your purchase of this book helps support scientific and educational endeavors." And yes, that is Cryolophosaurus you see on the cover, although he is sadly missing from the rest of the book. It has some nice and colorful illustrations by Nathan Hale, with the story by Anne Muecke. This is a cute book for kids and entertaining enough for adults. ![]() John and I found a new book, the Dinosaurs' Night Before Christmas, when we were visiting the Sam Noble Museum of Natural History last month. ![]()
