Here is a link to a working one.
Hint: if this ever happens to you guys again, try copying a portion of the text and googling it, you’ll find a link with the info!
I keep getting the same message – I think the original site is down or has issues…I just copied and pasted onto a word doc (for 3-8yrs)
I love your list! Thank you for sharing. 🙂 FYI, I keep getting a error message for the 9 through 16 years.
I, too, would love to get this list, but I am also getting an error message. Is there another link that might work?
Thanks so much!
