Today, several of my Canuck Blogger friends are doing a blog carnival where they are going to share about their hometown. I thought that instead of sharing my hometown I’d put together a fun printable so that your children can research YOUR hometown!
This printable includes several pages, and allows kids to explore their home town by asking them to find out the following information:
- Town name, province/state, country
- population
- year founded
- timezone
- who is the mayor
- a city flag
- urban or rural
- a map of your town
- tourist attractions
- a hometown hero
- my favourite place
{My Hometown Pamphlet Printable}
I invite you to check out all the posts in today’s carnival and learn about hometowns all over Canada.

What a great printable! Love it 🙂 Not only is this a great printable for home, but I’m sure many teachers in our kids’ schools would love this. I love the section of “hometown hero”. Would be so cute to see what kids put there 🙂
What a great idea! I think it’s important our kids know where they came from, what their hometown is all about, and how life started for them. The history itself is so much fun!
This is a nice way to let kids/students know more about their hometown. Like Sandy, I also like the hometown hero part, now that made me think… who is my hometown hero? Thanks for visiting my post.
This looks like a great idea!!! My girls are very interested in province/country/town and often ask questions… this might be a bit advanced for them (my oldest is in Kindergarten) but it would be a way to start learning a bit more about things. Thanks for sharing! 🙂
This is so wonderful. I am printing this out and getting my son to complete it over March Break. Give him something fun to do. Thanks so much.
Thanks for the free printable. It would be a lot of fun to walk around our town with my kids and fill in the answers. Pinned it.
LOVE the printable Lisa Marie, what a great idea and such a fun learning activity for children. I am sharing it with my son who is an elementary school teacher…he will love this too!
What a great resource to help your kids learn about their home town! I think a lot of adults could use this too to improve their knowledge!
I recently started to experiment with all of the great free printables bloggers are making available for use and I really love this one! thanks for sharing 🙂
What a neat and fun activity to do with your children! Definitely going to print it out and have my son fill it in. 🙂
Great idea! I used to do something similar to this with my students and they always found it such fun.
