This activity will give pre-readers practice building a story. And it's silly fun, too!

Here's an arts and crafts activity for preschoolers and pre-kindergarteners: build brick buildings with homemade mud bricks made from dirt and water.

Tell your child you want to work on kindergarten readiness skills and she's not likely to jump up and clap. But turn it into a game and it's a different story.

Let your preschooler feel like a real chef by helping him create his very own chef's hat!
