The free activity sheets available on this site are themed with characters from The Adventures of Victor and Percy. They are presented as Victor Voltage, Percy Pipe, René Renewable or Group activities. The Victor Voltage activities have an electrical or electronic gadget theme. The Percy Pipe activities have a pipes and plumbing theme. The René Renewable activities have a renewable energy theme and focus on nature and the environment. The Group activities feature more than one of the characters.

 

 

The character based exercises are then divided into twelve different types of learning activity. These activity types are linked to a child’s early development and help to advance particular skills in children. This learning programme allows the child to identify with a particular character and the parent to devise a fun, skill based learning programme focused on a child’s learning needs. The activity types are:

 

New Activity Sheets

Here you will find the ten most recent activity sheets that we have uploaded to the Victor and Percy website. They also appear in the relevant character sections.

Difference

Two images are presented with the second image differing from the first in a number of ways. The child has to identify the differences improving comprehension and visual skills. These activities can be completed online.

Square Puzzle

An image of one of the characters is separated into twelve squares. The parent should print the image and cut it into squares. The child is given the pieces of the puzzle and must reconstruct the picture either with or without the original picture shown online. Improving visual and manual skills.

Maze

The child is presented with an image of one of the characters trying to reach a destination. The path through the maze is complicated by a series of alternate routes that appear to go in the right direction but lead to dead-ends. To find a way through the child must often retrace their steps try again. These activities improve reasoning skills and encourage the child to persevere with an activity even if their initial efforts are not successful.

Safety

Safety activities provide parents with a resource to reinforce the message of what is safe and what is dangerous around the home. Some of these activities can be completed online others should be printed.
