Pumpkin Preschool Printables

LOTWlogo.jpg

  Since it is fall, I thought I’d pull out my Pumpkin Preschool Printables for the Teeny Tot! If you aren’t familiar already, these printables are part of my Letter of the Week curriculum.   With the harvest coming I reminded my children about the real harvest. We learned Matthew 9:37-38  “Then he said to his disciples, “The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few. Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field.” And of course we sang our “P says pu, the P says pu, every letter makes a sound, the P says pu” song. Well, it’s not exactly “pu” but I wasn’t quite sure how to spell the sound p say…pi, pa, pu…oh forget it! Math Skills: Everyday we count our calendar, and just for fun I purchased themed calendar day numbers. Of course we were excited to pull out our pumpkins with fall here! I still have to help direct her counting, but she doesn’t miss a day doing this one, usually she has a … [Read more...]

Puppy Preschool Theme Free Printables!

puppypromo6.jpg

Since my Teeny Tot loves Puppies, we went with that for our Pet theme this month. She is currently 2.5 years old, so we’re keeping it light. She is excited about school this year, and is eager to have her own work to do! I want to point out that I do most of this because she has older siblings. If your toddler is your oldest, don’t feel pressure to do tons of activities with them! Let them lead you, if you sense they are frustrated, take a break for the day or move on to something else. At this age, just keep it fun and light! Click here to download the Preschool Puppy Pack! Bible Verse: “And God said, “Let the land produce living creatures according to their kinds: the livestock, the creatures that move along the ground, and the wild animals, each according to its kind.” Genesis 1:24 Prewriting Skills: It’s always good to practice basic handwriting skills just to get your fine-motor skills tuned. It takes time to be able to trace lines and so have … [Read more...]

Preschool Pond Theme Free Printables

pondpromo.jpg

  Hi everyone! I wanted to share a fun Preschool Pond Pack that I made for a post over at Totally Tots Blog. I just realized that I never shared it over here, and I didn’t want anyone to miss out, so here it is! The focus was really for our Teeny Tot and I have to say that she absolutely LOVED being involved in school time! Duck Mosaic: I recently received the Picture Perfect game from Educational Insights. It’s a great mosaic tile game for younger children. It comes with 16 picture cards, and one just happened to be a duck! We also did the fish and a few others as it is a favorite game of ours. A little tough for the Teeny Tot, but I would tell her to find a yellow tile and then when she did I helped her place it in the correct spot.   Bible Verse: Genesis 1:20-23 Then God said, “Let the waters abound with an abundance of living creatures, and let birds fly above the earth across the face of the firmament of the heavens.” So God created great sea … [Read more...]
