A collection of Preschool Learning Activities for Ages 3 to 5 that feature reading, writing, math, sensory, art, science and more to do with your child.

Plan your PLAYFUL PRESCHOOL learning week with the amazing learning activities from our fellow kids activity bloggers. 

I know my preschooler is going to love learning about art by painting with the EARTH, working on his fine motor skills with beading, and getting some gross motor play and learning to read while searching for letters in the pool.

These articles were shared with us on the Educators’ Spin On It Facebook Sharing Days.

Our Learning Week of Playful Preschool 

I am SOOOO excited! My 4 year old (the kid who REFUSED to count to 3 until a few months ago) counted all the way to 20 on his own. This may (or may not) have to do with the new household “CHORE” that we have implemented which required the kids to pick up a minimum of 15 sticks after their morning outside playtime before they can come in.

I’m calling it a win-win learning activity. Our yard is getting cleaned up daily, the kids get a little bit of extra movement and outside time AND my preschooler is counting out load for a very real-life purpose. It does help that his big sister likes to go above and beyond.

Although I only ask them to pick up 15, they both try to get 20!

Even the baby (well, toddler) is getting in on the action. He picks up sticks and counts 1, 2, 3, then starts back at one again. It just warms my heart!
