40+ Activities for Preschool at Home

August 9, 2015 by Jaimi Erickson 16 Comments

Ready to have the ENERGY to be the best mom you can be? Get started! Thanks for stopping by!

Welcome back! Did you already get started here?

40+ preschool activities that can be used for preschool at home. I used them to teach my preschooler at home, and will be using them again this homeschool year.

This back to school season is an exciting one for me. My husband and I have made the choice to homeschool our preschooler rather than send her to preschool 2 days a week. We did send our oldest to preschool for two mornings a week when he was 4 ½, but our situation is different now-where we live, how much preschool costs in our area, and the needs of our children. Each of us has to decide if paying for preschool is worth it for our child.

Deciding whether or not to send your child to preschool can be tough, but you do not have to send your child to preschool for them to be fully prepared for Kindergarten!

 

This post contains a product review. I was not paid to share this with you, but am always happy to share great products with you that can be helpful in your home! Please view my disclosure.

 

I know from my oldest, that he was fully prepared for preschool and Kindergarten just with the simple activities that I have always done with the kids at home. In a way, I am always a part-time homeschool mom with all of my children because I supplement their learning so much at home. It is fun to learn together and when we use simple activities and tools to teach our children at home, the task is less intimidating.

 

Whether you are a first time homeschool mom, or one who is looking for new ideas and resources to use in your preschool homeschool, I have a great list here for you! These are some of my favorite learning activities for preschool at home. They will be the core activities that we will use in our preschool homeschool this year. So exciting!

 

To learn about the developmental stage that most preschoolers are in from ages 3-5 years old, you can read my Crash Course in Child Development post all about the Preschool stage.

 

Now for the 40+ Preschool Activities!

Activities for Preschool that teach reading and writing skills. These are great preschool activities for at home learning.

 

LITERACY ACTIVITIES: READING AND WRITING

It is simple to teach a preschooler to spell their name and to count the numbers in order with these two simple personalized songs that teach.

 

Practice “writing” the letters by painting using this easy activity. Great for artsy kids who are not interested in tracing the letters.

 

Your preschooler can learn to spell their name with this activity that teaches them to put the letters of their name in the correct order. You use paper plates to create this name spelling game.

 

 

Reading is not only a cuddle time activity, but one that establishes a connection between learning and love. Reading a variety of books to your preschooler is an important activity to do at home.

 

Personalized children’s books are a fun way to get your child excited about learning. At the end of this list is a giveaway for you that includes personalized gifts!

 

A DIY felt board that can stick to the front of the fridge creates a learning space in the kitchen that allows children to explore shapes, story characters and retelling or simple songs and chants.

 

Children love to learn the names of their favorite animals. This activity teaches a child to read animal names with simple animal names tags. It’s a fun way to add literacy to their play.

 

 

Children will enjoy creating their own book that teaches them to be thankful. This is a great multi-disciplinary activity that helps children write and create their own book.

 

Learning to identify shapes and letters is an important academic skill for preschoolers to master. Use leftover stickers to create this simple learning activity to learn letters and shapes.

 

Put the letters in alphabetical order with a stacking activity that uses plastic Easter eggs-great for all seasons!

 

Activities for Preschool that teach science skills. These are great preschool activities for at home learning.

 

SCIENCE

Explore science concepts and engage your preschooler in science discussion using this activity for making DIY sensory bottles from old baby bottles. This activity explores measurement, chemistry, and color mixing.

 

Spend the day learning about trees and nature with activities for outside and inside.

 

Preschoolers can learn all about anatomy with this free printable activity. It is a personalized way to learn where the bones are in the body at a preschool level.

 

Do you have a child who loves learning about dinosaurs? This book-based activity about dinosaur tracks includes steps for creating your own DIY dinosaur footprint sponges for painting. Included are links to an entire book-based dinosaur activity series.

 

Activities for Preschool that teach math skills. These are great preschool activities for at home learning.

 

MATH

Use play dough to create a counting activity that teaches preschool kids both number symbols and amounts. Really inexpensive to make too!

 

Exploring and playing with patterns is a strong math skill for preschool kids to learn. These simple ideas for learning about patterns with your preschooler will set a great foundation for learning future math concepts.

 

Create your own puzzle out of play dough to encourage matching and fine motor skills.

 

You can set up your own scale for exploring and comparing the weights of objects. This is a great activity for learning about the concept of “greater than/less than.”

 

Whether your preschooler still needs to learn their shapes, or is ready for numbers, this activity with an apple tree theme can be adapted for your child’s readiness.

 

Use cotton balls to count in this fun snowy day themed activity.

 

Turn banging into learning with a toy hammer and box. This activity teaches letter and color identification.

 

Activities for Preschool that engage kids in active learning. These are great preschool activities for at home learning.

 

GROSS MOTOR

Kids get exercise and learn basic concepts with these fantastic DVDs and CDs for kids that I had the chance to try out with my children. They are a favorite to listen to and watch in our house.

 

Some children learn best when they can be active and move to learn. This activity is a hopscotch-like game to teach preschoolers how to spell their name. Included is a link to an entire active learning series for kids!

 

This sensory activity is also a gross motor challenge! Try playing with shaving cream indoors to get moving and work on balance…plus have a little messy sensory fun.

 

Preschool aged children need time outside to explore and play. These ideas are for some exercise and learning at the playground that gets your preschooler moving and exploring.

 

DIY bean bags and a simple bean bag toss game allows a preschooler to throw, take turns, and count!

 

Play hopscotch indoors with a DIY yoga mat hopscotch game whether you have a rainy day, or are just looking to move to get some wiggles out before a table activity. This is great for learning balance, counting and taking turns.

 

Journaling is something that preschool kids can do! Creating a simple journal for daily drawing or writing practice is a great keepsake as well.

 

Activities for Preschool that teach art exploration skills. These are great preschool activities for at home learning.

 

ART

Try the idea in this list for expanding a child’s creativity by providing a simple large canvas for them to paint on using a drop cloth or scrap of fabric.

 

Create vibrant chalk art pictures outdoors when the weather is nice using this simple idea for sidewalk chalk art.

 

Preschool kids can practice creating and writing their name by making these DIY thank you notes using gift wrap scraps-perfect for holiday time!

 

Explore a little creativity with an idea from this list: This art project gets children making and decorating a “6 sticks house.”

 

These simple ideas to upcycle items you already have at home into art tools, allow children an easy way to create and explore art!

 

All you need is yarn for this activity that includes a great book to read as well.

 

SENSORY

Sensory bins are fairly simple to set up and children can  really explore. This simple oats and salt sensory bin idea also links you to the 40 Days of Sensory Bin Fillers Series-you will never run out of sensory ideas with that list!

 

No matter the age of a child, water play is always fun! Children can explore scooping, pouring, volume, measurement, comparison and sensory play with these tips for playing with water indoors.

 

DRAMATIC PLAY

You don’t need to spend a lot on dress up clothes to give your child chances to explore and learn in pretend play. Try this idea for creating DIY dress up vests that can be personalized.

 

Make some DIY jumbo building blocks and your child can build using their engineering skills as well as play with their creations in fun ways. You will laugh when you see what my kids built!

It does not get simpler to teach preschoolers to care for their community than by having them complete this simple community service project.

 

EXTRAS

Want free homeschool curriculum or summer learning Want free homeschool curriculum or summer learning activities? Grab a book from the library! 📚 🌟 

Within a few minutes of skimming this one book I found at least a few weeks’ worth of learning activities for our unit on the middle ages. Best part is they are hands-on, cover all subjects and it was free!

It is not expensive to homeschool or supplement your child’s learning at home. I am loving what we are learning now. 

What are your children learning about right now?

I spotted her just looking at our little seedlings. The peace of doing with our hands what we have learned with our mind is so satisfying. 

Tomorrow we can plant our first seeds in the outdoor garden beds. I am so excited for the simple task.

Today’s schooling looked a bit like this. 💕 L Today’s schooling looked a bit like this. 💕 Library, reading, painting the toy that came in the kids meal, reading time, and calm. 

When I think about my homeschool style (aka structure) it has definitely evolved over the years. I never really researched a style until today actually. 😂 What I found was, we started as Traditional - workbook-based learning. Then I added Unit Studies to our Traditional structure. Now we naturally have shifted to a more Charlotte Mason + Unit Study approach for some subjects and Traditional approach for a few subjects (math most specifically). 

Flexibility keeps our interest. Plus learning never stops.

Today our day began with a visit to our library. When we got home the kids all found a spot and were so quietly reading I did not want to shift gears! So I didn’t. 

There was reading, eating, drawing, painting, and so much quiet you guys I just had to let the kids go with this. My brain was soaking in the peacefulness.

When I started homeschooling, I would have never thought that a day like this would make me feel successful. It feels so good to have reached this point. 

When days happen like today, it feels pretty much like magic. 

What is your style if you homeschool? If not, what style would most appeal to your family?

You know what’s funny? I took this pic not even You know what’s funny? I took this pic not even noticing what random things were out of place. 😅 Perfect for this post today. 👇

Motherhood is a juggling act. We try to seek balance and be joyful, but kids, husband, house, our needs and wants all pull us in different directions.

We worry that if we drop one ball they all will come crashing down! We are busy, yet not feeling productive many days. The line between needs and wants become blurred.

Attempting to keep it all organized is overwhelming. 

We tend to define balance with images in magazines, snapshots of other moms who are
having a together day when we are not, or elaborate spring cleaning tasks that sound great and get pinned but ultimately leave us feeling even deeper in frustration when we do not complete them.

*****
Balance is not a place where you go and never ever again feel a bump in the road.

Balance is an on-going, always changing, never finished job. 

*****

If you feel out of balance today, you are just in the process of working your way back to it. 

If today was a great day, prepare yourself now because the scale may tilt and things may feel out of your control tomorrow. #reallife

It is not easy to cut things from our calendars or limit our focus each day. I feel that struggle so much. My whole family needs and deserves my time and attention. I am constantly in a state of re-balance, and making attempts to re-organize, as I attempt to balance four children and a husband.

That requires a lot of humility, prayers for God’s peace in my life, and relieving myself of any guilt for not doing it all every day.

Do you see the items out of place in this pic or are you focused on the beauty within it? 😉💕

#AD Today was hard! School took longer than expect #AD Today was hard! School took longer than expected, grocery shopping got pushed back, and I am soaking up my time to get quiet and pray it all away. 

I have discovered simple, quick ways to feel refreshed staying at home. With four kids, homeschooling and military life I can not just get a break when I feel I need it. 

These ideas have helped me feel rejuvenated in small moments even when I can not get out of the house to have a break.

One of the simplest ways to recharge is with a good old hot shower. I think it pretty much cures mom overwhelm and stress. I always planned my showers around the kids’ quiet times. That way I could take my time.

Choosing hair care products that are really special make it even better. @hairmayraki has natural repairing shampoos, hair growth kits and weightless moisture shampoo that feeds moisture into your hair so it feels and looks amazing even if you have to air dry!

**Use code JAIMI20 to save 20% on your Mayraki hair care products!**

As we get older our hormones shift, so hair loss can be a problem. Just like after having a baby!

Using Mayraki Hair growth and anti hair loss products helps me maintain full, healthy hair. It smells so nice and makes my hair feel moisturized and completely clean.

I put together a helpful list of ways to help us moms feel refreshed.

They are simple actions we can take to care for ourselves each day. I even have some ideas from my friends here on Instagram too!

Are your kids the outdoorsy, adventurous types? Anyone just over having clean floors with all the wet boots and feet going in and out like me? 🙋‍♀️🤦‍♀️

I can handle dirty floors for all this nature play without a doubt.

I made sure to go to her room after things cooled down (where she was sent for her behavior) and ask why, talk about my reason why, and then she decided to come down and eat her dinner. (The whole issue was that dinner included a green vegetable...😅😂)

Everything returned to contentment. We all smiled. This is real life and real parenting. Our emotions clashed but calm logic brought things back in focus.

Today we can laugh and be silly thinking about it.

How have you been taking time to recharge while st How have you been taking time to recharge while staying at home? Making my list of favorite ways to refresh ‘cause moms with full schedules from morning to night need some simple ideas to get in quiet time. 👏 Do you need recharge time?

I like keeping it simple. 👌 Luxurious shampoo and body butter to maximize the spa feel after a hot shower, Bible study in the morning with my coffee, walking the dog solo are just a few of my break ideas. (I think hot showers are a cure all for a lot of stress! Time to think, feeling the strain wash away...all good things.) What do you think?

Since I have been a #stayathomemom for 13 years now, my kids have always been around and my time has been devoted to home and family. But I NEED time to have quiet and just be alone too. 

That means I have to squeeze in my recharge time in creative, simple ways. 

I am going to finish up this blog post and share it all with you. Share what you do too! I would love to give you a  mention you in the post. 👩🏼‍💻 💕

When you really focus on fear, isn’t it pretty s When you really focus on fear, isn’t it pretty silly how much we let it run our lives? 

Anyone who knows my 7 year old daughter knows she has a “no fear” spirit. She can be a bit of an adrenaline junkie. She is always moving, seeking out fun and not intimidated by the unknown.

As a parent I both admire and cringe. 😅 

I find that I have to suppress my fear when it comes to her adventurous spirit so I do not diminish her true nature. I also have to be on the ball from a parenting perspective to talk through being smart while having fun. 

It is not as if we can ever see the results from the actions before we act though. 

Remembering myself how I truly only know what I see and what faith teaches me allows me to focus on eliminating fear from ruling.

For many years I was the opposite of my wild child. I was always thinking too far ahead to see what potential pain may come. That suppressed my nature. I see my kids so social, so eager to try new things and it energizes me to set that example too. 

Fear is not a worthwhile debate partner. 

“She is clothed with strength and dignity; she can laugh at the days to come.” ~Proverbs 31:25, NIV

Do you wrestle with fear in parenting and life in general or are you more of the no fear type?
