Star Wars: The Bad Batch Printable Bingo Cards and Mobile Wallpapers

Exciting News! On this amazing “May the Fourth Be With You” day, Disney has released Star Wars: The Bad Batch on Disney+ and it’s now available to stream! We finally get to follow the story of Clone Force 99, better known as The Bad Batch, as they go on new missions that most clones would never want to take. The not-like-the-rest clones do have one thing going for them, they have a 100% success rate! Whether or not this success rate will stick with them through the series is something only time will reveal.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I say “only time will reveal,'” because The Bad Batch is being released weekly. The episode released today is called ‘Aftermath’ and it’s 75 minutes long. Basically it is an awesome movie to start the adventures. For someone like me who tends to binge watch entire seasons, this will have a tough waiting period…oh the impatience is growing. I will admit, I’m ecstatic that The Bad Batch is now streaming and that I can watch Hunter, Crosshair, Tech, Wrecker, and Echo as they learn to adapt to an ever changing galaxy and complete their crazy missions. I simply have to wait for episode 2 and beyond.

Official synopsis:

They call themselves the Bad Batch, but the motley crew that makes up Clone Force 99 boasts an astounding 100 percent success rate and skills unseen in any other clone troopers. Adept at working together, Hunter, Wrecker, Tech, Echo, and Crosshair use their unique talents and specialized physiology to execute extraordinary solutions on the battlefield.

Pony Life Printable Pony PlayDate Activities

Hasbro has a cute series called Pony Life, featuring the Mane 6 from the My Little Pony collection! I discovered this adorable series from a television ad where Pinkie Pie was trying a snack and her face started turning all different colors. It was absolutely adorable! I had to check it out and see what Hasbro may have to celebrate this new-ish series. Hasbro usually doesn’t disappoint.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The search was short and sweet. On the official Hasbro My Little Pony Site, there is a great collection of My Little Pony printable coloring pages and activities. Right at the top of their printable collection is the Pony Life Playdate Activity. This Playdate Activity features coloring pages, party decorations, recipes, and more. I knew my family and I would love these activities so I downloaded the PDF.

Here is where it gets weird; the printable pages have missing images. In the original printable pack Rainbow Dash, Rarity, and Twilight Sparkle are missing from the coloring pages and Twilight Sparkle is missing from the Photo Props. They are obviously supposed to be there because there are gaps of where they should be. I figured I could fix the missing images by drawing the coloring pages myself. However, when I placed the pages into my photo editor, all the missing images magically appeared. I figured, since this is the case, I would form a new printable pack and post it here featuring the entire collection of characters: Rarity, Fluttershy, Twilight Sparkle, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, and Applejack.

To get the full printable Pony Playdate Activity package, click the image below and save the PDF to your computer. Hopefully the weird magically disappearing ponies will remain in their designated locations and become fun printable activities. If they disappear, please let me know. It is sort of fascinating that such a weird error would exist…at least it is fascinating to me hahaha.

The printable Pony Playdate Activities include

  • Pony-riffic Zoom Background
  • Printable Pony Coloring Sheets
  • Style your pony cuuute
  • Dance Party playlist
  • Shine Bright Party Decorations
    • Printable Party Hat
    • printable Photo Props
    • printable Banner
  • Sugar Cube Corner Recipes
    • Snack Mix
    • Fruit Sticks

Zoom Background Image:

Download the Zoom Image by saving the image below to your computer. Then follow the instructions in the Pony Playdate Activities to get the image as a Zoom background.

A Printable Coloring Page of Suzani from The Princess Palace Pets

With the cancelation of Princess Palace Pets, there are a few palace pets that were never released. Suzani is one of those unfortunate casualties. However, she is still an adorable blue puppy that deserves her time in the sun. Thanks to a small random image of a possible Suzani toy, I was able to form a SKGaleana Palace Pet image and coloring page.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The Suzani picture I used to create the coloring page is a side view of a toy that never made it to development. The picture is somewhat hard to read but I was up to the challenge. From this small image, I was able to create what I think the Palace Pet would look like. The tiara and accessories are all a small guess based on this image. Because Suzani was never released in the Princess Palace Pet show, stories, or on Disney’s website, she is not canon, however, she is still absolutely adorable. Feel free to download the coloring page and enjoy this almost released Princess Palace Pet.

Suzani is Jasmine’s Princess Palace Pet Puppy. Suzani has blue fur with purple ears and a purple tail. Her accessories are gold and are very similar to the jewelry that Jasmine wears in the movie, Aladdin.

Suzani’s Story (written by Marissa Grubbs, an avid Palace Pet fan):
Suzani was a gift to Jasmine from Aladdin on their anniversary.

The coloring page features Suzani with her adorable Palace Pets paw print marking, bow, tiara, and necklace. To download the Suzani Coloring Page simply click the image below and save the PDF to your computer. Then print, color, and display. If you want Suzani to become a puppet:

  1. print the coloring page on thick cardstock
  2. Color the kitten to your liking
  3. Cutout the Glimmer along the outer solid black line
  4. make a kickstand out of cardboard.
  5. Glue the kickstand to the back of Glimmer (or glue Glimmer to a popsicle stick)
  6. Let dry
  7. Display

Blue’s Clues and You! Blue and Magenta Deviled Eggs – Recipe

Easter is this Sunday! Time to boil eggs, host an Easter Egg Hunt, and get a basket from the Easter Bunny. There are also Deviled Eggs, Egg salad sandwiches, and other egg-tastic recipes we all love to eat. This year, thanks to Nickelodeon, we can add a little color to all our egg recipes with the help of Blue and Magenta from Blue’s Clues and You! (affiliate link).

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

While this recipe can be used to color eggs in any recipe (imagine a pink and blue egg salad sandwich), this specific recipe is for Blue and Magenta Deviled Eggs. Deviled Eggs are delicious treats but they are also very repetitive with the standard clump of yellow mash on a white egg. By following some simple instructions and adding a bit of food dye, our Deviled Eggs go from a boring snack to a pink and blue party. Use a piping bag to create paw prints and our treats become a Blue’s Clue.

Here are the items and ingredients we will need to make these Blue and Magenta Deviled Eggs:

  • 6 Hard boiled eggs
  • 1/3 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tsp mustard
  • Pinch of salt and pepper
  • 1 cup cold water
  • Food Coloring, blue and pink
  • 2 icing bags
  • 2 medium round icing tips
  • wax paper
  • Slotted spoon
  • 2 coffee mugs

Sometimes boiling an egg takes some weird special skill and almost magic like calculations. It took me a while to find that perfect ‘goldilocks zone’ to cook the best hardboiled eggs. This is how I get mine nearly perfect each time. Of course there are days where the stove dislikes me, and/or the eggs dislike me, and/or the water dislikes me. No matter what I do, the eggs still will not do as they are told. On those days, I take a break and refuse to let a little old egg ruin my day. Scrambled is just as good as hardboiled. hahaha

How to boil eggs:

  1. Place 6 eggs in a small pot and fill the pot with water until the eggs are covered.
  2. Heat the water to a boil.
  3. Once the water starts to boil, set the timer to 10 min.
  4. After the 10 minutes are up, remove the pot from the heat.
  5. Let the eggs sit in the hot water for another 10 min.
  6. Rinse with cold water and let cool.

The eggs are now ready to be made into Blue and Magenta Deviled Eggs. To get the instructions on how to make the Deviled Eggs click the image below and save the PDF to your computer. Then print and create for a delicious Blue’s Clues and You Easter celebration.

A Printable Coloring Page of Glimmer from The Princess Palace Pets

The cat’s ‘meow’ certainly has to be Glimmer from the Princess Palace Pets. Her dark purple stripes, light purple fur, and red accessories all sparkle with a beautiful glimmer. Of course, being one of Tiana’s Princess Palace Pets, Glimmer also features a lily pad on her tiara and a green gem on her collar/necklace.

Since she never received an official story before Disney cancelled the franchise, we can only guess about her character. I like to think she is a clean freak, always making sure the area around her is perfectly spotless with that new clean shine. She loves to help Tiana in the kitchen, making sure the food taste divine. However, even with her need for perfection, Glimmer is also a fun loving kitten that will attend bayou concerts, chase fluffy toys, and even get into a bit of mischief when no one is looking.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Glimmer’s Story (written by Marissa Grubbs, an avid Palace Pet fan):
Glimmer met Tiana at the Firefly Music Festival in the bayou when she was surrounded by a lot of fireflies. They flitted around her, making pretty designs with their blinking lights. Tiana invited the tabby cat to come and join her during the festival. Glimmer jumped into Tiana’s arms as if she was saying “yes”

The coloring page features Glimmer with her adorable Palace Pets paw print marking. To download the Glimmer Coloring Page simply click the image below and save the PDF to your computer. Then print, color, and display. If you want Glimmer to become a puppet:

  1. print the coloring page on thick cardstock
  2. Color the kitten to your liking
  3. Cutout the Glimmer along the outer solid black line
  4. make a kickstand out of cardboard.
  5. Glue the kickstand to the back of Glimmer (or glue Glimmer to a popsicle stick)
  6. Let dry
  7. Display
