  • If your child has trains all over the floor like mine does or you are in search of letter T crafts and activities for preschoolers then you are in the right place! We put on our conductors hat (figuratively speaking) and came up with simple T is for Train Activities including letter formation, fine motor skills, sequencing, and sorting using our tub of trains and train tracks. Also included is a free printable letter T train craft template so your child can show off all they have learned.
  • This activity was inspired by one of our new favorite books, The Crayon: A Colorful Tale About Friendship (affiliate link) by Simon Rickerty, and is a perfect painting activity to practice color mixing and learning primary and secondary colors. We have our color family paintings hanging up on our bulletin board and use them frequently as references.
  • We have been enjoying learning about the Ocean and especially sea animals but we had never talked about the layers of the ocean until now. Paint samples work perfectly to represent the different levels, but if you don’t have any on hand you can always use layers of paper. When we were finished with this activity we had learned what type of animals live at different depths, what the different zones are called, and had a cute craft to help us remember and decorate our wall.
  • The GROW-A-RAINBOW SCIENCE Experiment Activity Pack is set up so all you have to do is print the activity pack, gather the supplies and do the experiment. It keeps things easy for you and fun for your kids as they learn about absorption and capillary action.
  • Enjoy spending time outside with the kids, and then bring all their nature treasures inside to make a beautiful mandala nature craft. As kids craft they can explore nature, count, and decorate symmetrical circles using a paper plate and our free symmetrical circles template from our Symmetry Circles Math Activity. If you prefer, you could always skip the symmetrical part and let kids create freely–either way the results will be beautiful!
  • Starfish or sea stars are perfect to add to your Ocean Activities & Crafts, to make after a day at the beach (or aquarium), or just because you like starfish as much as we do! The buttons add a cute touch as well as keeps this craft almost mess free (no fluff or lot’s of stuff needed) and helps kids improve their fine motor skills as they place each button on their starfish.
