Corn on the farm! Whether you’re walking through a maze at the pumpkin patch, decorating with cornstalks, or painting with it, corn is everywhere at this time of the year! If you’re anything like me, you’ve got a stash of deer corn feed in your fall storage bins waiting to be played with. The bigger corn pieces were perfect for my preschoolers while we worked
Pig Tails Color Sorting
Come have some fun down on the farm with our colorful pig bottoms! I loved how simple this activity was to put together. My preschoolers loved how silly it was! Somehow pigs were rolling around in the mud and their tails fell off. Completely unbelievable, but to my 3 year-olds, they giggled and then got right to work putting the tails back on the colorful
Baking Apple Muffins with Kids
The best part of an apple theme in preschool is baking with apples! And when it comes to baking, my preschoolers are all in! The apple sauce muffins that we made were super kid-friendly and easy enough for my 3 year-olds to help during each step of the recipe. The muffins were delicious too!

Five Little Pumpkins Sensory Bottle
Sensory bottles can be used in so many different ways with toddlers and preschoolers! In my classroom, sensory bottles are used for calming down, exploring, science, literacy, math, and as an extension to what we are learning about! Our 5 Little Pumpkins sensory bottle goes perfectly with the fall theme and the classic children’s poem that we learn each year. This sensory bottle is super
Apple Pie {Scented} Spin Art Craft
The delicious smell of apple pie is one of my favorite things about fall! We won’t be making apple pie in preschool this year, but our spin art apple pies still smell just as yummy! In just a few simple steps and with little assistance, preschoolers can create their own apple scented craft. Spin art is always a huge hit with my preschoolers! Affiliate links
Fine Motor Counting Spider Activity
Spiders are such a fun theme to learn about and fit into our fall farm and even Halloween themes coming up! I’m all in as long as the spiders aren’t real! Our cute little clothespin spider is perfect for toddlers and preschoolers to practice counting from 1 to 8, practice 1:1 correspondence, and strengthen their fine motor skills. That’s a lot of skills jam-packed into
Apple Stem Letter Matching
Letter practice could not be more fun (or cuter!) with our Apple Stem Letter activity. Preschoolers can match letters in their names while practicing recognition. Older kids can practice sight words and spelling words! My preschool class will be practicing recognizing the letters in the word apple during our apple theme along with counting apple seeds and sorting colored apples! Apples are one of my
Teach Color Matching with Stickers
Simple learning with stickers! Simple is what I am all about. I have always been one to wait until the last minute to get things done. I do some of my best preschool planning while drying my hair and brushing my teeth! The activities that we do in preschool (and at home!) are super simple but still super fun. This includes our latest activity that
Shape Sort Sticky Wall
During the first week of preschool, I set up activities for quick {yet still fun} assessments to see what skills my preschoolers already knew at the beginning of the school year. Sorting by category, size, and color is taught and used throughout the school year with 3 year-olds. Our Shape Sort Sticky Wall introduced sorting by shape and tied in shape recognition too! I am
Alphabet Letter Stones
Creating easy to use materials for my classroom is so fun! I have used my summer break to stock up on fun printables (the smiley shapes are my favorite!), simple busy bags or independent table centers, and super fun manipulatives (homemade and from the dollar store!). One of coolest things I made for my preschoolers are these Alphabet Letter Stones! Aren’t they beautiful? They were
