  • I created these little counting and sorting bottles a few years ago for Madelynn and they are still going strong. Aubrey used mini pom poms to sort, count and fill each bottle with the correct number. You could also add in some tweezers for more of a fine motor challenge! #mpktotschool Find all of the details for this activity and lots more #mpktotschool number fun here: ➡️ bit.ly/TotSchoolChicka123
  • To wrap up our #mpkbabybins 💚GREEN 💚theme, I filled our bin with water, lily pads (cut from foam), frogs, and cups. Aubrey had a great time dumping, splashing, exploring and getting everything wet. 💦 Find all of our GREEN themed #mpkbabybins activities on my blog here (link in profile) ➡️bit.ly/GreenBabyBins
  • Our next 💚GREEN💚 themed #mpkbabybins activity helped Aubrey worked on building fine motor strength. I gave her a block of floral foam, green pipe cleaners and large/small green popsicle sticks and she went to town poking them into the foam.

  • This apple tree writing craft is a fun addition to any apple unit! Differentiated comprehension, writing and craft activities for 5 great picture books🍎 ➡️bit.ly/ApplesRnR
  • This Brush the Shape game is a fun way to practice identifying shapes with a dental health, or healthy habits theme. I printed and laminated the tooth shape, then used a dry erase marker to draw shape germs all over the tooth. Madelynn chose a card, named the shape, then used a toothbrush to brush that shape off of the tooth. Find these mats and more health activities for preschool here: ➡️bit.ly/PreschoolHealth .

  • These Water Wow cards from @melissaanddougtoys are the best quiet fine motor activity. 💦 All you need is a little water in the pen and your kiddos can paint and reveal the pictures on each card. 🎨 Perfect no mess activity for restaurants and long car trips. They were a great addition to our #mpktotschool Chicka Chicka 123 theme as we worked on identifying numbers and counting to 10.
