Clean Up

To make clean up after "free play" easier and more fun, take pictures of the toy (digital cameras work great for this), laminate the photo, then put it on the outside of the bin or on the shelf where the toy belongs. This enables pre-readers to put things back, and the kids feel great about themselves for cleaning up. by Lori Harris

40+ Preschool Activities

Here are some simple activities to use with preschoolers and Kindergarteners. Most require little or no advance planning!

1 Sing Mr. Noah Built An Ark instead of Old MacDonald Had a Farm
2 Play Act Like the Animals: hold up pictures of (or simply name) some animals and have kids act like them
3 Take a nature walk, collecting nature items in zip-loc bags. Bring the items back to class and glue them on cardboard or construction paper to make a nature collage.
