It utilizes an empty toilet paper tube on which they stick a colored felt jacket and decorate with their imagination. The top part becomes the head on which they can place a cone-shaped head with pom pom detailing. Make ears and stick on each side and draw a face. For a detailed overview, check out HomeSchoolPreSchool. This activity is a fun way to develop fine motor skills and let children use their imagination.
While using scissors, kids learn the importance of safety. With glue, they learn to be careful. The choice of designing your own clothes allows them to explore their imagination and come up with an idea that is all their own.
They also learn to differentiate between different materials. The activity is a fun project that you will love doing with them too. It involves printable sheets that you can print for free from ThePrintablePrinceess. Each sheet features Christmas-themed objects such as gingerbread men, candy canes, reindeer, ornaments, lights, presents, etc.
Also included are empty recording sheets for kids to write on. Just print the entire set and slide it into page protectors. Each student gets a recording sheet in which they count and write the number of items. Then they compare each set and color the picture to show the larger number. It is an excellent way to improve their hand-eye coordination, fine motor skills, and sensory processes. The best thing about this activity is that it does not require too many supplies. Though you need to prepare all the material in advance, the instructions are simple.
Counting and coloring are the basic things that kindergarteners are already learning, so they will enjoy doing this activity individually or with the whole class. Ensure proper spacing. Stringing a holiday card display gets the Christmas card clutter out of the way. We all know how many posts we get during the festive holiday season. Finding enough space to showcase all of them is indeed a tough task.
And the best part is you can get the kids to do it for you in their own creative way. Like the previous one, this activity also does not require a lot of supplies.
You just need a ball of string, some clothespins, and your collection of greeting cards. Start by tying the string at a reasonable height.
Now, get your cards and start hanging them up. The fun part for kids is that they get to do it all on their own. They can hang the cards up any way they like, projecting their unique style. Another way to do it is to attach the cards first then hang them up.
Both are fun on their own. For more information about this activity or how you can go about it, check out Education. This activity brings out the artistic side of your little ones.
Since they are doing this themselves, they learn to become independent and self-reliant. If your string is hanging up, you can get them to do it in pairs; the first partner passes the cards, the other hangs them up. Doing it this way improves cooperation and team spirit.
Such a simple activity can be so beneficial for child development! Sensory bins are an excellent way to let your kids explore. You may already have one at the kindergarten, but you need a special one for this activity. This one revolves around decorating mini Styrofoam trees commonly available during the Christmas season. Since Christmas lights enamor kids the most, they will love doing this for hours.
So the first thing you need to do is make sensory bins. They can be colored popcorn kernels, beads, mini pompoms, tiny plastic lights, different beans, etc. You can add spoons, funnels, scoops, and other similar sensory tools to the bin. These will help kids explore better. For more information regarding materials to use in your sensory bin, visit TheImaginationTree. Now, get your mini Styrofoam trees and wrap contact paper on them with the sticky side facing out.
Give them to the kids and let them play and explore. Straws are an excellent activity tool. You can use them for a variety of purposes. From games to craft, these are an essential kindergarten supply.
You can purchase holiday straws at the party section of supermarkets. You will also need some balls of string to lace them up. Start by cutting the straws into smaller pieces. Mix them all up and let the fun begin. Hand each kid some string and ask them to lace up the bits of straw in unique patterns to draft a bracelet. See how on PocketOfPreSchool. This lacing practice greatly strengthens their hand-eye coordination as well as thinking ability.
They can also create different shapes like triangles, pentagon, hexagon, etc. These masterpieces are ideal for presenting as gifts too. Print out these printable bingo cards, and you'll have an instant Christmas party game that didn't cost you anything to put together.
Set up a fun scavenger hunt in which the kids search for Santa's reindeer, which you've hidden around the party space. Depending on the age of the children you have at the party, hide the reindeer in easy-to-spot locations or tuck them away to make them more difficult to find.
The game suggests hiding small reindeer figurines, but you can make reindeer for free by using printable reindeer coloring pages. To play this game, fill a large stocking with items around the house, and then the kids guess what's in the stocking. The items in the stocking should be Christmas-themed, such as ornaments, pinecones, and bows. The guest who guesses the most items wins a prize.
This Christmas party game for kids will help keep their minds sharp as they try to recall items that were placed before them.
