Play Musical Statues
This simple movement activity helps improve listening skills, as your child will be required to discriminate between sound and silence.
Make Noodle Necklaces!
This activity is the perfect project to do on a lazy summer day. And more importantly, it will help develop crucial hand-eye coordination skills in your young writer.
Grab Bag Numbers: A Math Game
Want to help your preschooler get comfortable with math? Get out the grab bag! This hands-on game helps kids learn to associate numbers with sets of objects-- a key early math skill. And all you need is a set of index cards, pennies, and a paper lunch sack.
Create Line Design Prints
Line designs can be straight, curvy, zigzagged, or wavy. Teach your child how to create lots and lots of line designs by wrapping string around wooden blocks, and using them to create line-filled prints.
Make Festive Christmas Stencils
Help your child recycle old Christmas cards by using a craft knife to cut out basic Christmas shapes: candy canes, holly, and trees!
Homemade Sidewalk Chalk
Any excuse is a good excuse to get outside. And homemade chalk ranks right up there! Not only will making your own chalk bring hours of hopscotch and drawing entertainment, but all that sidewalk fun builds the hand muscles, which helps young kids as they learn to write.
Practice Storytelling with a Plot Potluck!
Think of this as a potluck of sorts; but instead of bringing a chicken casserole, everyone brings an idea. Remember the old "I'm going on a trip" game? This game offers a different spin, by building a story in a similar fashion.
Plan a Treasure Hunt
Few kids can resist the pull of an adventure, and the promise of hidden treasure. In between all that treasure hunting, preschoolers get a taste of how to use a map.
Make a Kitchen Surprise Print
Use common kitchen tools to create an entirely uncommon work of art!
Make Chocolate Dipped Spoons!
Whether you're looking for a great gift your child can make or a fun project your to do together, these chocolate dipped spoons make for a great holiday activity.
