There is a time for everything, and summer is a time for fun, fun, and you
guessed it.... more fun!
</p>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div>
<p style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Now having the kiddos without some sort of schedule can lead to chaos, chaos,
and you guessed it... more chaos! So to combat the boredom and squabbles
that may ensue, here's a summer bucket list for kids from A to Z!
</p>
<p style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></p>
<h2 style="clear: both; text-align: left;">SUMMER BUCKET LIST FOR KIDS</h2>
<p style="text-align: left;">
<br />I'm all for the lazy days of summer, but I also know too many days doing
the same thing over and over again gets real old, real fast. And I
don't know about you, but having the task of filling up our days can be daunting since ''the skies the limit.'' That overwhelm brings my summer
excitement to a halt and soon enough summer is over and my kiddos have spent
their days playing Legos.
</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">
<br />Which honestly they might be completely OK with, but I'm not. For us, summer time is when I am not at the mercy of trying to make sure all our i's are dotted and t's are crossed following our homeschool curricula. It's finally when the mid-west can come out of hibernating all winter and spring long and get some much needed vitamin D. And frankly, summer makes our good life... GREAT! </p>
<p style="text-align: left;">
<br />I want to soak up these short summer months making memories.... and darn
it, this bucket list of summer activities is going to help us have a summer of
fun!
</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">
<br />Whether you can relate to my little diatribe or no, I hope this bucket
list summer inspires you to learn and play with your kiddos today! </p>
<p style="text-align: left;">
<br />So, YES! I am a firm believer the learning never stops-- even in
summer. It's just that it takes a more organic approach! Many of these activities can also sneak in some learning! Though the workbooks may be tucked away, there are still plenty of ways to learn as you can create themed ''book baskets'' for several of these activities. </p><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><p>Planning on going fishing? Look up some YouTube videos, grab some books about different types of fish in your area, research what they like to eat, etc! </p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p>

<h3 style="text-align: left;"><b>BUCKET LIST SUMMER ACTIVITIES LIST</b></h3>
<p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">
I've created this summer bucket list for kids for you to print and hang on
your refrigerator; keep it somewhere to help keep you accountable to break out of the mundane. Grab your bucket list summer activities list at the end of the post! There is a premade A to Z summer bucket list for kids and a fill in the blank
summer bucket list.
</p><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Many letters were easy to fill out and some took a bit of creativity, but I hope it provides you and your kids a summer of fun! In parentheses are
some other activity ideas. I think most of these activities will prove to be adventurous and memorable for your kids AND you!
</p><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: left;">I kept the activities pretty basic so that you could customize the activities to your locality. Think of the different places around where you live and plan accordingly. For ''under the stars'' you may choose to visit a planetarium or pitch a tent in the backyard and star gaze.... </p><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">
Make this a summer of FUN... alphabet style, of course!

<p style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="text-align: left;">As the weather begins to turn for the better, signs of spring start popping
up everywhere. In the stores (hello flower and pastel decor!), outside
as trees and a few flowers begin to start budding, and in our
homeschool. After a long winter, we welcome spring themes such as
flowers, birds, rainbows, bugs & insects, etc. </span>
</p>
<p style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="text-align: left;">A few weeks ago I printed off our
<a href="https://www.schooltimesnippets.com/2013/08/flower-shape-sort-free-printable.html">Spring Shapes Matching Worksheet</a>
for my 3 year old, who of course, just loved having ''school'' to do all her
own. So, with spring in the air I set up another activity that worked
on sorting and matching shapes. My 3 year old created her own shapes
flower garden!</span>
</p>
<h3 style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="text-align: left;">WHY ARE SHAPE SORTING ACTIVITIES IMPORTANT?</span>
</h3>
<div>
<span style="text-align: left;"><br /></span>
</div>
<p style="text-align: left;">
Shapes are one of the first things that young children can differentiate; they
may not be able to verbalize it, but young children are able to sort and match
various objects by their physical characteristics-- like its SHAPE! And
as we read and live life, shapes are one of the easiest concepts to point out
to children. Pointing out differing shapes will help solidify shape
recognition and shape identification. And being able to note
differences- subtle and large- will help them in other content areas too, like
when he/she is beginning to learn how to read and write!
</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">
There are MANY fun ways to teach your toddler and/or preschooler about
shapes. And as I mentioned above, they will be aware of the differences
too.... just through PLAYING. However, as a teacher and/ or parent,
providing specific activities that encourage being able to distinguish between
shapes solidifies their learning, and provides structured, yet hands-on
teachable moments.
</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p>
<h2 style="clear: both; text-align: left;">SORTING SHAPES</h2>
<p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">
Add this fun, hands-on shape sorting activity to your spring theme
activities. It's a great sorting activity for toddlers and preschoolers;
it is easily adaptable and also works on shape recognition and shape
identification! This seemingly simple shape sorting activity works on so
many important early learning skills.
</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Supplies:</p>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li>construction paper</li>
<li>scissors</li>
<li>dot sticker</li>
<li>markers</li>
<li>glue stick</li>
</ul>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">SHAPE SORTING FLOWER GARDEN ACTIVITY</h3>
<p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">
Once you have gathered the materials, begin prepping this shape sorting
activity for your toddler or preschooler by drawing two to three stems onto
a piece of construction paper.
</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">
Decide what two or three shapes you would like your child to practice
identifying and draw a shape in the center of your dot stickers.
Alternatively, if you do not have dot stickers, simply draw a circle where
the center of your flower would be and draw a circle, square, heart,
triangle, etc. in the middle.
</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">
The shape in the center of the flower will direct him/her to match the shape
''petals'' to the correct flower.
</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p>

</div>
<br />
<p style="text-align: left;">
Once you have decided what shapes you would like your toddler or preschooler
to sort, cut around five of each shape from construction paper.
</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">
I had my daughter sort between circles, triangles, and hearts. I cut
five of each shape from colored construction paper; circles were orange,
hearts were purple, and triangles were pink. I spread them around the
activity so she could sort and then match the shapes on the correct flower.
</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p>

</div>
<br />
<p style="text-align: left;">
Once the activity was prepped and ready to go, I called my three year old
over and we had a quick little chat about the colors and shapes on the
table.
</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">
I encouraged her to sort the shapes by similar characteristics- shape and
color, and then had her place the shape ''petal'' around the matching
flower.
</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">
As your preschooler matches the shapes, a garden will begin to ''grow!''
</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">
Either as your child is putting the shape ''petals'' around the flower, or
once your child has matched all the shapes, encourage your child to count
how many petals are on each flower and/or how many petals there are all
together!
</p><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p>

</div>
<br />
<h3 style="text-align: left;">MATCH THE SHAPES FLOWER ACTIVITY</h3>
<div><br /></div>
<p style="text-align: left;">
Once your preschooler has matched the shapes, either leave the pieces
unassembled so that your toddler or preschooler can do this activity again
for a quick table-top activity .
</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">
OR, give your child a glue stick and have him/her glue down the shape
''petals'' to each flower, which will create a simple spring craft to add to
your refrigerator or art wall!
</p><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p>

</div>
<br />
<p style="text-align: left;">
This sorting shapes activity is easily adaptable so you can use other shapes
and/or focus on other colors.
</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">
For a little challenge, cut the same shape from <i>different </i>colored
paper to create flowers of the same shape!
</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">
Either way, I think your toddler or preschooler will love this shape sorting
activity as much as my 3 year old. It's the perfect spring activity
for little ones!
</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">
I hope this inspires you to learn & play with SHAPES today!

<h3 style="text-align: left;">ICE CREAM ADDITION PRINTABLES</h3>
</div>
<div><br /></div>

One ice cream math worksheet has your child work on 'making 10.' Every
ice cream cone has a number, and your child is to figure out what addend is
missing, so that the cone equals 10.
</div>
<div><br /></div>
<div>
Another worksheet works on simple addition as your child is asked to make
combinations of ice cream and add up the scoops.
</div>
<div><br /></div>

We LOVE I SPY games! On this worksheet, your child will need to
differentiate and count the various ice cream cones. Can they find them
all? This printable game is great for 1:1 correspondence and counting
skills.

<div>
One worksheet consists of having your child make various types of
patterns. Your child is tasked with making ABAB, AAB, ABB, and ABCABC
patterns by drawing. Patterning is a great early math skill to continue
developing.

20. One worksheet simply tasks your child to trace the numbers to
20. The other tracing numbers worksheet includes a few numbers missing
so that your child can fill them in.

Make teaching and learning fractions FUN for everyone involved with these
hands-on fraction activities! ''Seeing'' and ''touching'' what a
fraction represents is key (I think) to understanding just what a fraction is
and what the numbers mean. Add some hands-on fraction activities to
explore fractions with your students in 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade!

Okay, I might not do that... but, I am tempted. Fractions were
definitely part of my "I'm just no good at math'' self- talk. It's a
shame, too, because there are SO many fun ways to teach and practice
fractions that are engaging for both the teacher and student.
</div>
<div><br /></div>

Don't let your student cringe with fear when your fraction unit comes

Every couple of months my kiddos get in a "coloring frenzy." They just
cannot get enough of coloring! Soon enough, with 4 kiddos coloring away,
we have new pictures everywhere from Pokemon characters to fairies to monster
trucks.
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I love their focus and colorful creations, but for the next time they are in
their ''coloring frenzy," I created a couple coloring worksheets that are fun,
yet educational.
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I know not EVERYTHING needs to have some type of educational "extra," but I
just can't help it. I mean, if my kiddos are coloring... why not color
shapes?
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div>
<h2 style="clear: both; text-align: left;">SHAPE COLORING WORKSHEETS</h2>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Hence why I created these shape coloring worksheets. In this 'bundle,'
are three different coloring sheets that give your child a ''key'' to how to
color in the picture.
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Squares are green, triangles are orange, circles are to be colored blue,
hearts are red, and stars are purple.
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Then, once all the shapes have been colored in, your preschool and/or
Kindergarten kiddo can count how many of each shape there are and write the
number in the box below the shape.
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
THESE AREN'T YOUR AVERAGE COLORING SHEETS, TONS OF LEARNING IS HAPPENING,
TOO!
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
So not only is your child coloring, but he/she is:
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<p style="text-align: left;"></p>
<ul style="text-align: left;">

As spring weather is making its way here and Easter is a few short weeks away,

<div>
To make a spring chick handprint Easter card, begin by folding a piece of
cardstock in half the long way. Cut the folded cardstock into two
pieces. Use the other piece to make the Easter egg handprint card or
make another spring chick.
</div>
</div>
<div><br /></div>
<div>
Paint your child's hand yellow and then help your child press his/her hand
onto the front of the card.
</div>
<div><br /></div>
<div>
Allow the handprint to dry while you clean up your child's hand. Alternatively, if you are also making the handprint Easter egg card, paint your child's hand again and press his/her handprint on the blank card. The paint should dry fairly quickly.
</div>
<div><br /></div>
<div>
Next, with a yellow marker, draw a circle around your child's handprint.
Draw some ''hair'' on top of the chick if you'd like, too.
</div>
<div><br /></div>
<div>
If your child is old enough and would like to continue to help, have him/her
make grass with a fork. Press the fork into green paint and then "rake
down'' to make grass-like prints. Allow that to dry, and using your
child's fingerprint have him/her make Easter eggs using other paint colors.
</div>
<div><br /></div>
<div>
To finish off the handprint spring chick, glue two googly eyes, a triangle
beak nose cut from orange paper, and two yellow feathers- one on each side of
the chick.
</div>
<div><br /></div>
<div>
Finish the card off by adding a simple message inside the card!

This Easter egg handprint craft is a bit simpler in supplies than the spring
chick. Some of the steps are similar though.
</div>
</div>
<div><br /></div>
<div>
If you have not done so already, fold a piece of white cardstock in half the
long way. Cut it in half. Use one of the cards to make the
handprint Easter egg and the other for the spring chick above, or make two
handprint eggs.
</div>
<div><br /></div>
<div>
Paint your child's hand one color and then help your child press his/her hand
onto the card. Another option is to create stripes of paint.
</div>
<div><br /></div>
<div>
Clean up your child's hand and let the handprint dry for a few minutes-- it
shouldn't take long. </div>
<div><br /></div>
<div>Next, draw an oval shape around your child's handprint. </div>
<div><br /></div>
<div>
Using the markers, create simple designs onto the Easter egg-- zig zags, dots,
stipes, etc. Be creative!
</div>
<div><br /></div>
<div>
Finally, paint grass at the bottom of the card by dipping the back side of a
fork into green paint. Paint down to create grass marks.
</div>
<div><br /></div>
<div>
Once everything is dry, add a sweet Easter message to the inside of the card!

This letter matching activity features an adorable spring bunny who is
collecting eggs, but not any old eggs.... Each egg has an uppercase letter on
it that corresponds to a lowercase letter on the worksheet. Add this
upper and lowercase letter matching activity to your spring theme activities;
it's an easy to-do alphabet activity!
</div>
<div><br /></div>
<h2 style="text-align: left;">UPPERCASE AND LOWERCASE LETTER MATCH</h2>
<div><br /></div>
<div>
This letter matching activity is adorable and so cheerful that I hate to call
it a ''worksheet.'' However, it is something that your child will most
likely be able to do on his/her own, if they have some knowledge of the
alphabet already.
</div>
<div><br /></div>
<div>
It's easy to set up. Just print out the file and cut apart the uppercase
letter eggs. It may be helpful to print this out on cardstock and/or
have your laminating machine ready to go so that this printable activity can
be re-used.
</div>
<div><br /></div>
<div>
Once the letter matching activity is ready to go, spread the egg cards all
around and have your child match the uppercase egg to the lowercase letter on
the ''worksheet.'' YES! It's that easy!

Most children certainly aren't shy about weird smells or their disgust over what's for dinner, either verbally or by the look on their faces. Oh I
can just hear some of my children now (ha!).
</div>
<div><br /></div>
<div>Sometimes young children, preschoolers, Kindergarteners, and 1st graders,
are simply overwhelmed by what they are experiencing and simply may not have
the language to express details describing what they see, hear, touch, taste,
and smell. To help draw out their sensory experiences, we are sharing
some simple drawing prompts.
</div>
<div><br /></div>
<div>
These drawing prompt worksheets are a fun hands-on way to express the 5 senses
through art. And they make a great introduction to 5 sense poetry for little
learners!
</div>
<div><br /></div>

<div><br /></div>
<div><br /></div>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">WHAT ARE THE 5 SENSES?</h3>
<div><br /></div>
<div>
The five senses are sight, sound, hearing, touch, taste, and smell.
Through those senses, our body and brain make connections about the world
around us. Just think of how much we absorb through our five senses
everyday... every minute!!
</div>
<div><br /></div>
<div>
Little learners LOVE learning
about the human body. Learning about the 5 senses gives them a "peg" to
help them understand the world around them.
</div>
<div><br /></div>
<div>
Sight: Our eyes help us make connections to light and dark, shapes and colors
that we see.
</div>
<div>
Taste: Our tongue is the organ that helps us perceive what tastes sweet, salty
and sour.
</div>
<div>
Hearing: Our ears are the organ that help us to hear volume and pitch.
</div>
<div>
Touch: Our skin is the organ that helps us distinguish textures and the
difference hot and cold.</div>
<div>
Smell: The nose is the organ that helps us smell whether something is pleasing or
not!
</div>
<div><br /></div>
<div>
To help young children share and understand their sensory experiences, I'm
sharing these 5 senses worksheets!
</div>
<div><br /></div>
<h2 style="text-align: left;">5 SENSES WORKSHEETS</h2>
<div><br /></div>
<div>
These drawing prompts may be especially appealing to children that love to
color and/or don't have the language to express their senses through words.
</div>
<div><br /></div>
<div>
These print & go 5 senses worksheets are an easy activity to use with
preschoolers, kindergartners, and 1st graders!
</div>
<div><br /></div>
<div>
The worksheets encourage your child to share their sensory experiences- what
they see, touch, smell, taste, and hear, in different settings:
</div>
<div>
<p style="text-align: left;"></p>
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li>at the park</li>
</ul>
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li>on the farm</li>
</ul>
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li>in their room</li>
</ul>
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li>at the beach</li>
</ul>
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li>
and I've included a blank worksheet for you to fill in the topic.
Other ideas might be the grocery store, restaurant, at school, etc!

Is there a children's book that you have read and re-read to your child so
many times that YOU could re-tell the story without looking?
</div>
<div><br /></div>

Re-reading that story to your child for the hundredth time may be futile to
you, but it's developing important sequencing, language, and narration skills
in your child. Here are 25 stories that are PERFECT for re-telling with
accompanying activities. These sequencing activities are great for
preschoolers and Kindergarteners.

<h3 style="text-align: left;">WHY STORY SEQUENCING?</h3><div><br /></div><div>
If you think about it, sequencing is an important skill that is used in many
disciplines in life-- from getting up in the morning to school work like math,
reading, and writing, .... and even in the kitchen.
</div>
<div><br /></div>
<div>
There's an order to how we do things, and if events happen in a different
order.... you may have a different outcome. In this case, you may have a very different story! </div>
<div><br /></div>
<div>
These story sequencing activities will help you teach your young children the
importance of what comes first, second, last and how to re-tell events, which is a great way to encourage narration and develop vocabulary in your preschool or Kinder kiddo(s).</div><div><br /></div><div>There are SO many fun ways to make a story come alive through re-telling via: </div><div><br /></div><div><p style="text-align: left;"></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li>story stones</li></ul><ul style="text-align: left;"><li>create hands-on props</li></ul><ul style="text-align: left;"><li>re-telling stick</li></ul><ul style="text-align: left;"><li>puppets</li></ul><ul style="text-align: left;"><li>hands-on printables</li></ul><p></p></div>

I love when packages come in boxes. Big or small, who knew a simple
brown box could hold so much potential! From large boxes from our COSTCO
shopping trip to the small box sporting some new shoes, my kids and I have
managed to upcycle them somehow, someway. Sometimes for play.
Sometimes to learn.
</div>
<div><br /></div>
<div>
A small shoebox became the latest learning tool as it was perfect for this
Q-tip Color Match Activity. Created with my 3 year old in mind, this
color matching activity is perfect for your older toddlers and preschool
kiddos.

Recently my kiddos turned our large COSTCO boxes into cars complete with
doors, steering wheel, windshield wipers and more! Construction paper
clippings and pipe cleaners all over the floor aside, I LOVE their creativity!

My ideas always gear toward learning something be it colors, letters, shapes,
etc! Sorry kiddos! The "teacher" in me. ha! Save that box

<div><br /></div>
<div><br /></div>
<div>
Not only does this color matching activity work on the obvious-- matching
colors (!), it also strengthens fine motor skills, and can be used for
counting practice, too!
</div>
<div><br /></div>
<div>Supplies: </div>
<div>
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li>q-tips</li>
<li>empty box</li>
<li>paint</li>
<li>screwdriver*</li>
<li>paint brush</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div><br /></div>
<div>
This activity will require a little prep work from an adult. **<span face="Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif" style="background-color: white; color: #2f2f2f; font-size: 12px; letter-spacing: 0.48px; text-align: center;">Please use your discretion when putting our ideas before your children- you
know them best! Adult supervision is required. Be watchful of materials used
as children 3 and under should not be left unsupervised during activities
that contain small pieces, or modify as you see fit.</span>
</div>
<div><br /></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Begin by adding squirts of paint from several different colors. Brush
the paint into small circles. </span>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Squirt some paint onto a plate or napkin and "swirl" one end of the q-tip
into each color. Make sure you have enough q-tips for each color
circle. </span>

Be sure to turn the q-tips so that they do not dry to the paper towel; or
perhaps dry it on a paper plate or glass plate instead.
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Once the circles have dried on the box, take a screwdriver and poke holes
into the center of each circle.
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div>

When the painted q-tips have dried, this color matching activity is ready to

</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Present your child the activity and invite him/her to match the q-tips to
the circle on the box.
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Encourage/ model counting as your child fits each end of a q-tip into a
hole.
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Practice sorting by having your child sort the q-tips by color.
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
This color match activity is great to strengthen fine motor skills and
hand-eye coordination!
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Once your child is all done, have him/her grab each q-tip and take them out. The cotton on the opposite end of the q-tip will begin to pull
apart, so if storing the activity for another day either pull off the excess
cotton or cut the ends off with a pair of strong scissors.
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
If you made this color match activity with a shoebox, simply store the
q-tips inside the box!
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
This is a great activity to use again during dinner-prep, when working with
another child, or when you need little ones quiet but busy during
read-alouds.

<div>
I didn't designate a lot of space on the front to sign the card, so you can
have your kids sign the back of the card to let others know who gave them
the card.

<p style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
When
<a href="https://www.schooltimesnippets.com/2014/09/preschool-themes.html">planning our preschool year</a>
a couple years ago, we couldn't not have fun learning math concepts, art,
sensory play, and literacy through a SPACE THEME. Little ones love all
things outer space... I do, too! The sun, moon, and stars show the
grandeur of life.... but all that "stuff" is just really cool, too. </p><p style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /><br /></p><p style="clear: both; text-align: left;">I planned our preschool space theme activities for February, but outer space
is fun to explore ALL throughout the year! And we loved our space theme
activities so much we collaborated with some other amazing early childhood
mamas and teachers and created SPACE PRESCHOOL LESSON PLANS that contain a
collection of 24 kid-approved and fun interactive learning activities perfect
for preschool kiddos, aged 3-5. </p><p style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></p><p style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Go learn more out our

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
With the supplies listed, get ready to make some fun outer space art that is
truly outta this world!!
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
First, tape the black construction paper to the bottom of your baking pan;
this is optional, but may help keep the paper in place. Our paper was a
bit larger than our pan, so we just kinda pressed it around to conform to the
sides of the pan... or you can cut the paper smaller.
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Next, let your kiddos choose some paint to create "shooting stars." We
went with purple and red.... (I did mention that this space craft is unique!
ha!) Drop the marbles into the pan and if you have a cover, place the
lid on.
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Here's where it may get crazy, but ask your child to tilt the pan side to side
and to shake it front to back and to get the marbles rolling.
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Once your child is done, take the lid off to see all the "stars."
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
To finish off the space craft, assemble the moon with the cardboard and tin
foil. This creates more of a 3D effect. Be watchful of little
fingers, and glue the moon onto the marbled construction paper. ** If
you would rather not mess with a glue gun, cut a circle from the foil and glue
it down with a glue stick.
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Finish this fun marbled outer space art project by gluing confetti stars
and/or star stickers.

they [my readers] could find here at Scbool Time Snippets, I said this about
art:</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="color: #222222;"><span style="font-size: 15px;"><i>''...it has been one of the things that magically lifts moods, encourages creativity, and </i></span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="color: #222222;"><span style="font-size: 15px;"><i>brings my kiddos of all ages...

when I embrace it and just roll with it, it has been a sanity saver in this
hot mess of a year! And with all that being said, today I've got a new
art activity to share with you that I think you and your kiddos will love.</span></div></div>

<h2 style="text-align: left;">What is OP ART?</h2>
<div><br /></div><div>
OP ART is short for optical illusion. Typically it involves a black and white
image, but sometimes you'll find op art using a play on colors. In OP
ART, artists have used shape, lines, and patterns to create an image with an
illusion of movement; it looks like it is moving, twisting, blinking, etc, but
it is NOT. OP ART is an illusion- a trick- on the eyes.
</div>
<div><br /></div>
<div>
I think many of us shy away from wanting to learn about art, perhaps because
what we were taught long ago never interested us, or we think of "art" as only
the masters from long long ago. Truly, I think there is a form of art that will
speak to everyone.
</div>
<div><br /></div>
<div>
OP ART started in the 1960s spear-headed by artists, Briget Riley and Victor
Vasarely. Do a simple internet search to explore this type of
art.
</div>
<div><br /></div>
<div>
I think most kids will love the "tricks" this type of art creates.
</div>
<div><br /></div>
<div>All right, ready to create your own?!</div>

<p></p>
</div>
<div>Begin gathering your supplies from around the house. </div>
<div><br /></div>
<div>Search around the house for different materials to create your shapes-- grab a
bowl, cup, puzzle piece, magnatile block, etc! Pick one object or many
objects of various sizes.... remember, YOU (or your kiddo) are the
artist. There is no right or wrong.
</div>
<div><br /></div>
<div>
Print out TWO OP ART printables for each child. The colorful cardstock
is optional, but I think it will give this easy art project an extra POP!
</div>

<p>
Turn one of the OP ART printables backwards, so that the side with the black
and white lines is facing down. Place the shapes on the paper and trace
around the shapes with a pencil. </p><p>After tracing your shapes, cut the out with scissors. If littles are
around, make sure you have a pair of <a amzn-ps-bm-asin="B06XPT1LJQ" class="amzn_ps_bm_tl" data-amzn-link-id="bedb737a972ef8a5be0e430f1f9a2798" data-amzn-ps-bm-keyword="blunt scissors." href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B06XPT1LJQ/ref=as_li_bk_tl/?tag=schotimesni08-20&linkId=bedb737a972ef8a5be0e430f1f9a2798&linkCode=ktl" id="amznPsBmLink_1082362" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">blunt scissors.</a><img alt="" border="0" height="0" id="amznPsBmPixel_1082362" src="https://ir-na.amazon-adsystem.com/e/ir?source=bk&t=schotimesni08-20&bm-id=default&l=ktl&linkId=bedb737a972ef8a5be0e430f1f9a2798&_cb=1608746491040" style="border: none; height: 0px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; width: 0px;" width="0" /> And to sneak in

Now with your shapes cut out, arrange them on the other OP ART

As I mentioned above, it's completely optional but I cut around my daughter's
OP ART piece and glued it onto a piece of cardstock.
</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: left;">Doesn't it look great?! </p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: left;">
This easy op art for kids activity is simple enough to add as a "morning
basket" activity for all my fellow homeschoolers, an introduction piece to
famous artists for an art unit study, or simply just because!

Brown Bear Brown Bear Activities - Story Sequencing
</h3>
<div><br /></div>
<div>
Begin setting up one of our brown bear activities by printing and laminating
our sequencing worksheet.
</div>
<div><br /></div>
<div>
** Even though the white dog is set against a grayish background, it may
still be hard to see at first glance. So you may wish to add a red
collar to its neck with a marker preferably before laminating-- although if
with a sharpie, after works too!
</div>
<div><br /></div>
<div>Cut out the brown bear and the circles below. </div>
<div><br /></div>
<div>
Attach the brown bear to the paint stick and the circles to the clothespins
with a glue gun. *Be watchful of little hands (and your own!) while using
the glue gun-- hot glue hurts!
</div>
<div><br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://www.schooltimesnippets.com/2020/10/brown-bear-brown-bear-printables.html" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="brown bear sequencing activity" border="0" data-original-height="500" data-original-width="641" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgv40G3EYFUp1f1iyRLxTKSGAeh28nN9n-His1wXl9ooPnw_Z7K1xzi9h7d6uRi5rYg5KvSA_NnICj4JwiasddMw4D3spOj9SY9Ft2LL0tevrI9WGDqHQdB0MVQTxLAQj7cuKB0tny28Bw/s16000/BROWN+BEAR+SEQUENCING+PAINTSTICK.png" title="Brown Bear Brown Bear Sequencing Activity - fun for toddlers and preschoolers!" /></a>
</div>
<br />
<div><br /></div>
<p></p>
<p></p>
</div>
<div>
To add an element of self-correction, you can also color a small dot along the
paint stick where each clothespin should go with a marker.
</div>
<div><br /></div>
<div>
Once the activity is set up, call over your little one for storytime.
Whether you use this as a time to snuggle your little one(s) on the couch or
for circle time amongst several littles, get your reading voice ready to
perhaps read the book several times over.
</div>
<div><br /></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I wanted to create a simple, hands-on activity for my kiddos to practice
tracing shapes. And with pumpkin season around the corner... this<b>
pumpkin worksheet</b>
was created! Your student will learn shape recognition with this FUN pumpkin
printable worksheet-- a great way to sneak in math, fine motor skills, and more!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
This pumpkin worksheet will have your child tracing your basic shapes- circle,
square, rectangle, etc. and a a few shapes that require more fine motor
control like an star, pentagon, and diamond.
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div>
<h3 style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Pumpkin Shapes Tracing Worksheets</h3>
<div>
There are two worksheets included in this printable set. Choose to print
one or both and trace away.
</div>
<div><br /></div>
<div>
I put our pumpkin shapes worksheets in a page protector and had my kiddos use a dry
erase pen so that we could re-use the activity throughout the
week.
</div>

</div>
<br />
<div>
To extend this activity, once your child has traced around each shape, have
fun creating pumpkin faces!
</div>
<div><br /></div>
<div>
Add more shapes and designs to create your own silly jack-o-lantern
faces. Make them mad, sad, happy, or a combination of them all!
</div>
<div><br /></div>
<div>
This is such a simple way to make shape recognition FUN and hands-on!

We have many fun apple picking memories from picking alongside some mom
friends, with grandparents, and our co-op. Around here several farms do
not charge an entrance fee, but if you want to go into the fields EVERYONE in
the party has to pay for a bag of apples. Once loaded into the car and
brought home it never ceases to amaze me how FAST we go through 5+ bags of
apples in a matter of weeks.... and that is simply by eating them!
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The apples never turn themselves into a freshly baked pie or applesauce.
It is straight up eating around here and/or apples dipped into a glob of
peanut butter-- nothing fancy!
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
But all that to say that this apple color words printable is perfect for this
apple picking season!

Teach your child color words with this color and trace printable. One
version includes the color word IN color and I've also included a regular
black and white version. With this color words printable, your child
will work on recognizing colors, reading the color word, and practicing letter
formation by tracing the word.

<br />
Well actually at the time of this post, summer is almost over and school is just around the corner... say what?@$%!!<br />
<br />
I'm not sure exactly how that happened! I suppose the saying is right, "<i>time flies when you are having fun" </i>(or because you're cooped up in the house because of the "Rona"). Irregardless, this'll be a summer many of us will remember for a long time to come whether we want to or not!<br />
<br />
With all that said and many of us hanging out at home, reading books can be a great way to escape to a far off place without leaving your couch.<br />

I'm not sure exactly when the fascination started, but my 2 year old has been all about pointing out things that match lately-- in books, clothing, outside in nature... everywhere!<br />
<br />
Recognizing things that are the same is an important early learning skill as it develops visual discrimination which will come in handy when learning letters, numbers, etc. Parents and adults around a little one can foster matching skills through a variety of ways:<br />
<br />
One is helping your child make the connection by pointing and voicing that two objects are the same color, shape, size... whatever.<br />
<br />
Another way is through play!<br />
<br />

Mom-led crafts like this one didn't happen to often during the school year. Now that we have finished our book work, it was time to do a fun summer craft. But alas, I do love a good book to go along with our activities. I like to think I am sneaky-- adding in a skill or concept while creating, but I am sure my kiddos see right through me!<br />
<br />
Here's a few jellyfish books to check out:<br />
<a href="https://amzn.to/2X0mOB6" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Peanut Butter and Jellyfish</a><br />
<a href="https://amzn.to/2L98Iet" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Jeremiah Jellyfish Flies High</a><br />
<a href="https://amzn.to/2L9nwtv" target="_blank">Narwhal and Jelly</a> (My 6 year old LOVES this series)<br />
<a href="https://amzn.to/2RuqpX4" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Commotion in the Ocean</a><br />
<br />
<br />
In all seriousness, this would be a PERFECT craft to introduce the Letter J! Tell your child what sound the letter J makes if he/she doesn't already know and then say, "J is for...." and see if your child can list (although it'll probably be more like a shouting match) things that begin with the letter J!<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
To begin making your own jellyfish craft, create the background with paint and bubble wrap. Doing this first gives it a little more drying time before you glue everything down. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Brush paint on your sheet of bubble wrap and then press the bubble wrap (paint side down!!) onto the piece of card stock. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Our piece of bubble wrap was actually a bag, so my son was able to put his hand in the bag and blot the bubble wrap up and down in various places.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Once done, set aside to dry.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Now it is time to create the cutest jellyfish craft with your child's hand! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
On another sheet of paper, trace your child's hand. Depending on ability, have your child try to cut it out. But for ease, feel free to cut it out yourself!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Next have your child decide what colors he/she wants the tentacles of their jellyfish to be. Cut several pieces of ribbon and attach to the back of the jellyfish with tape. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
** if the ribbon is too curly, have an adult slide the shiny slide of the ribbon along a pair of scissors; this should straighten it out a bit! ** </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Flip the jellyfish around the the front, and glue two googly eyes.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<span style="font-family: inherit;">Teaching place value can be a tricky concept; thus why hands-on manipulatives are key to helping young learners visualize what each numeral represents. Touching and manipulating objects is especially helpful for visual and tactile learners. Not to mention the addition of a tasty treat for Base 10 blocks will be much appreciated for those that love to eat while learning... or those who just love to eat! </span></div>

To keep in tune to our rainbow theme, we used the ALDI brand fruit loop cereal. You could use name brand or even cherrios, but I LOVE LOVE LOVE the ALDI cereal! Seriously though, it taste wayyyyyy better than another well-known brand out there and doesn't have crazy ingredients like red dye. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
OR! if you'd rather forgo the food route, you can use beads!</div>

<h3>
Teaching tens and ones rainbow maths activity</h3>
</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Teaching place value begins with understanding that numbers are orderly; each number has its own place. <br />
<br />
Begin counting numbers 0-9, placing a new piece of cereal in the "ones" column as you count. Reinforce that only *1* numeral can be in that spot! </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Now, when you get to 10 there are now two numerals.... so what do we do?! We make a new column: the "tens" place! <br />
<br />
Show your child how to string the nine cereal pieces onto a pipecleaner and add one more to make 10. You now have a ten "block." Place your new ten block in the "tens" column. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Then continue counting, adding a new cereal piece to the ones column, until you get to 20. The numeral 20 has 2 tens, so now another pipecleaner of 10 needs to be added to the tens column.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
If your child is still new to place value, it may be helpful to write out the numbers as you count.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Continue making bars of 10 with cereal until your child shows understanding of the concept.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>

To use this rainbow maths activity more than once or with multiple children, it may be helpful to laminate and/or place the place value board in a sheet protector, as well as laminate the number cards included in this printable. Totally optional though! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Included in the printable are 12 number cards to help reinforce teaching tens and ones. </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Once your child has gotten the hang of how to count using the cereal, have him/her pick a number card and build the number with their cereal base 10 blocks! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
