Best of 2015
2015 is in the books! The year flew by while N turned 1, E turned 5, and we did lots of fun activities together.
Read on to find out which post was the most popular of the year and to learn about the top 5 new posts I wrote in 2015!
The Best of 2015: The Top 5 Most Popular Posts
#1: Painting Leaves
Painting Leaves was a super simple activity, but E had an absolute blast with it, and my readers loved it.
#2: Rainbow Art with Cotton Balls
Rainbow Art with Cotton Balls was the first ever activity we did that included all the colors of the rainbow. No clue what took us so long – we’ve since done several more rainbow activities.
#3: Printables for Kids
Another first for me: I started making my own printables in 2015! I’m pretty excited about their success with my readers because not only does E enjoy them very much, I absolutely love making them 🙂
#4: Farm Animal Patterns Printable
And in fourth place is the most popular printable of the year! This Farm Animal Patterns Printable features simple patterns your kids can complete with cut and paste images as well as an option of coming up with your own patterns.
#5: Farm Animal Counting 1-10
Farm animals are always popular {plus, I absolutely ADORE this cute clip art!}, and Farm Animal Counting 1-10 comes in as the 5th most popular new post of 2015.
Bonus #1: The most popular old (pre-2015) post
This year, the evergreen Shaving Cream Puffy Paint post {one of the first posts I ever wrote} did amazingly well and came in as the top most popular post of the year. Despite increasing competition from new posts (I wrote more than 250 posts in 2015!), it more than doubled its pageviews this year compared to 2014!
Bonus #2: My personal favorite
As I mentioned above, I wrote more than 250 posts in 2015, and it wasn’t easy to pick just one favorite. At the end of the day, I have to say that I had a BLAST doing the 24 Days of Christmas Printables series {even though I needed a week off afterward 😉 }, and my favorite activity from it was Day 4: Color Your Own Printable Christmas Ornaments. They turned out so cute, and according to E, it’s now her favorite way of making ornaments 🙂
