Hey, Y'all! Welcome to the Sunshine State!
Whether you are a fellow Florida resident or a visitor from another state, we Florida teachers hope you have an awesome time as you take a virtual tour of our state. We've got some fun educational freebies for you to pick up along the way, and a chance to win your very own "Bundle of Sunshine!"
I've lived in sunny Central Florida my entire life. Despite the occasional hurricane - and the never-ending heat and humidity - it's a pretty great place to live. Who wouldn't want to live in "paradise" year round?
Speaking of paradise, my hometown is a tourist's paradise. We live about 20 minutes from the beach, and about 45 minutes from Walt Disney World! I'm not going to lie, I'm not much of a beach fan, but I am VERY MUCH a fan of Disney! When I was younger, I was always disappointed by the fact that we never got the "big" Disney vacation that other kids got, but as an adult, I can definitely see the merits of being able to hop over to Epcot or the Magic Kingdom for few hours on the weekend. :)
Do you know another perk of living on the east coast of Central Florida? The Kennedy Space Center is practically in our backyard. We can see rocket launches (and previously space shuttle launches) from our driveway! It's also a great location for field trips!
Now, how about a freebie? I wish that I could send you all some of our delicious Florida oranges, but unfortunately that's just not possible! Instead, click the image below to download a {FREE} collection of orange-y clip art from my Citrus Sampler Clip Art Pack - but don't stop there - there are more goodies below! :)
I also have some sweet deals for you on paid products, too! Both the full Citrus Sampler Clip Art Pack and my Print 'n' Go Travel Journal are on sale this weekend for 25% off! The Print 'n' Go Travel Journal is GREAT for using with your kids on ANY family vacation. If you're a classroom teacher, you can also send it with your students as "make-up work" when they travel. :)
