Learning about Bones – Fun Hands-on Activities for Kids

We also found some printables that helped a lot with the lesson. In this post, we will share with you a list of super fun hands-on activities for kids about none other than bones!

HALLOWEEN HANDWRITING AND COLORING FREE PRINTABLES

Halloween is coming soon and we have been doing everything we can to enjoy pumpkins, bats, ghosts, skeletons and everything spooky so I thought we needed some free printables to share before the holiday is over including all our favorites. Since my kids are at two different levels the printables come in uppercase letters and lowercase letters so you can choose which is appropriate for your child.

Halloween Handwriting and Coloring Free Printables: Perfect for letter writing practice including favorite Halloween pictures like pumpkins, spiders, ghosts, monsters, and more. (preschool, kindergarten, October)

PRESCHOOL ACTIVITIES: HAIR AND WHY IT’S THERE

As part of the Creative Preschooler team, we explored our hair. Hair is really kind of weird if you think about it. It comes in all different colors and textures, grows out of our skin, falls out, and grows back. This is a great hands-on way to learn about hair and where and why we have it!

 

My 5 Senses Potato Head Game

Learning about the 5 Senses Potato Head Game and Free Printable: All you need is a tub of Mr. Potato Head parts, download the free spinner, and you are ready to play. It's the perfect way for kids to learn about their body (sight, hearing, taste, touch, smell) and sensory organs (eyes, ears, tongue, nose, hands/skin).

  • Since baking soda and vinegar are always a fun reaction to play with, we made some Fizzy Bubble Paper and watched reactions happen magically as we painted with vinegar ice cubes. The paper is really simple to make and it’s a great inexpensive way to keep littles entertained while being creative.
  • Kids can play while learning about balance. They have to concentrate and think logically and strategically all while having fun.
  • Let kiddos get their hands a little messy with this ocean inspired activity. Gather up things from the kitchen and let them free play. In my experience, anything messy keeps kids interested for a long time.
  • This amazing set of alphabet roads mats provides a fun way for children to learn write letters. They include a practice page, tracing lines, guiding arrows and stop signs, and phonics pictures for bonus learning.
  • Today I have another Recycled Craft to share, yay! Follow the EASY directions to make a butterfly craft that’s beautiful and unique using recycled milk jugs and pens.
  • We are starting out the week with a balance and float water game that is super easy to set up (inexpensive too), that improves concentration, patience, and fine motor control all while having fun. The water needs to be calm during this activity. The Game is to balance ping pong balls on top of floating pool noodles. It’s as simple as that!
