Spring Activities for Preschool

During the preschool year it is important to expose children to different activities to build visual discrimination skills. Visual discrimination skills include the ability to visually determine the similarities and differences between two or more objects. One way to build these skills is through various matching games and activities.

Traditional matching games include the exact same item to match to another. (Think of memory or concentration in which students must match the exact picture). If that is what you are looking for, check out our free Spring Worksheets here. However, there is much more to visual discrimination then exact matches. For example, matching different shapes or pictures by pattern! That is the idea behind today’s free preschool learning game:

Spring Pattern Matching Game

This game is super low-prep and tons of fun! Your students will enjoy the new challenge of matching by pattern and not just by picture. The game includes two game board mats which you can laminate or mount to a file folder for durability.

There is a single sheet of game cards you’ll cut out that students will use for playing pieces. For each picture, the rainbow for example, there are two matching pattern cards; a bird with a rainbow on it and an egg with a rainbow on it. It is up to the students to match the correct cards to the picture by looking closely at the patterns.

Some patterns are simlar! Notice the lady bug and the watermelon? The paint tray and the cookie? Your preschool students will have to pay close attention as they are matching! Encourage them to go slow and look carefully at each picture pattern as they play!

Shapes Worksheets for Preschool

Learning to identify shapes and patterns is an important skill you’ll want your preschooler to have! Not only will it pave the way for important math concepts down the road, but it will help build strong visual discrimination skills students can use across all subjects.

Shape Worksheets

Preschool students will likely already have a good understanding of basic shapes, just from exploring the world around them. Many children’s learning toys incorporate shape identification as a target skill. However, there are quite a few obscure shapes that your preschool students might not be familiar with.

Shape worksheets are a simple way to help your child get a grasp for these new and different shapes…while reviewing the ones they do know and building confidence in the process.

Preschool Shapes

This shape identification worksheet covers the following shapes:

  • circle
  • square
  • triangle
  • oval
  • diamond
  • star
  • hexagon
  • heart
  • rectangle
  • trapezoid

Color By Shape:

The premise of the activity page is that students will color each shape flower according to the chart at the top. For young students, who cannot yet read their color words, you might pre-color the shape chart to make an easy reference for them.

Once completed, students will have an entire “garden” of Spring Shape Flowers. These sheets are great for take home preschool activities or for early finishers.

Spring Pin & Poke Activity Pages

Preschool students often are lacking in small motor skills. Although developmentally appropriate, it’s a good time to start building up those fine motor muscles in anticipation of the writing and expectations during the kindergarten year.

Spring Fine Motor Activities for Preschool

60+ Fine Motor Activity Pages for April

We have developed a set of monthly thematic activities you can use with your students to build these fine motor muscles. Our Fine Motor Activity Packs are inexpensive and include a good variety of activities to keep students engaged while learning.

Free Spring Worksheets

Pin and Poke activity pages are another great way to build small motor muscles. We recommend using this wood handled puncher and this large felt punching pad from Montessori Services.

NOTE: These punchers are recommended for ages 5+ so you’ll want to be sure your child is the appropriate age for using this tool. Always train your students with proper usage and supervise your students when using any tool you’ll be using in your classroom. (Can you tell I homeschool three boys?)

Setting up a Pin and Poke station is easy. You simply layer your materials out on the table and secure them with a bit of tape. Using a foam core board from the craft supply aisle also works well as a great buffer to stop your pokes from reaching your table.

With this setup, with a piece of construction paper in between, each time students poke through their picture, they’ll also be poking through the colored construction paper. This will create a fun design they can hang up in the classroom, or even on the window for light to shine through.

Once you are sure your student is safe with the pin puncher and is holding it correctly, have them work their way around the picture punching into each black dot.

Depending on the amount of dots in your picture, your student might want to take a rest, or complete the picture in stages. (This is where the tape comes in handy so that your papers don’t move or shift).

When finished poking all the holes, peel back the top sheet to reveal the picture created on the construction paper.

These pokey pin pictures are great for building fine motor skills, and when you hang the finished product in a window, the light will shine through to reveal your student’s hard work.

Make Way for Ducklings

Spring is the time for learning all about new life! New flowers are popping up all over, and new baby ducklings can be seen taking their first swim. It is a great time to add a little thematic fun in your preschool clasroom.

Make Way for Ducklings

by Robert McCloskey

Mrs. Mallard was sure that the pond in the Boston Public Gardens would be a perfect place for her and her eight ducklings to live.  The problem was how to get them there through the busy streets of Boston.  But with a little help from the Boston police, Mrs. Mallard and Jack, Kack, Lack, Nack, Ouack, Pack, and Quack arive safely at their new home.

If you love children’s books as much as I do you will really enjoy these sweet and simple activities based on Robert McCloskey’s Make Way for Ducklings.  If you are not familiar with it, this book is about a family of 8 little ducklings and their parents looking for a home. It makes a wonderful read aloud for your preschool students and lends itself well to some darling and fun activities… like Duck Pond Slime!

What kid doesn’t love playing with wonderfully gooey and fluffy slime? It is even more fun when you add another element like these cute rubber duckies to create Duck Pond Slime that is sure to keep them busy for a long time! It makes a great base for a simple sensory bin as well. ALWAYS carefully supervise your students or children when using slime.

How to Make Duck Pond Slime:

Materials:

  • Rubber Ducks
  • 1  cup white school glue
  • 1  tsp. Baking soda
  • ¼ cup of water
  • 1- 1 ½ Tablespoons Saline contact solution
  • 1-2 cups sensitive shaving cream
  • Blue food coloring

Step 1:

In a large container combine water, glue, and baking soda, stirring until completely combined. Mix in shaving cream and blue coloring well.

Step 2:

Add saline solution while stirring, continue adding slowly just until slime is no longer super sticky and begins to pull away from the sides of the container.

Step 3:

Use your duck pond slime in a shallow bin with rubber ducks and any other small related items you choose to create a simple sensory bin.

Your preschool students are going to love this tactile activity. Read through the story and encourage children to act out the different parts with their rubber duckies.

How cute do these little duckies look when diving for food? Store your slime in an airtight container when you are done and you will be able to reuse it over and over.
