Free, Printable Preschool Learning Crafts

When older siblings go back to school all day, preschoolers get bored. When the weather is too wet or cold to play for outside play, preschoolers need activities. Preschool teachers need supplemental practice pages for letters, numbers, shapes and other concepts. Preschoolers in day care need variety in their activities, especially preschoolers who spend all day in day care. If your homeschool your children, your preschoolers want lessons too. Preschoolers love to color, cut and paste. Free printable crafts and games meet all your preschoolers needs! First-school.ws offers hundreds of free printable activities. Print games, puzzles, word searches, cut and paste crafts, lessons, mazes, crossword, coloring pages and more. Each activity is simple to print. You don't need a reader program like Adobe to print. You will need to enable pop-ups so that coloring pages open properly. Printable open full-size in a new browser window. First school charges no site fee. First school has dozens of themes:AlphabetAnimalsArt appreciationBibleBooksColorsCommunity HelpersFablesFairy Tales/ lengendsHealthHolidaysMini-themesmulti-culturalMusicNumbersNursery RhymesPlantsSafety ScienceSeasonsShapesTeddy BearsTransportationWeatherEach theme and activity is cross-referenced. If you search for a 'printable halloween puzzles', you will puzzles under 'holiday' and 'animals' (cats, bats).

Each theme has letter pages and number pages related to the theme. Under 'Christmas' you will find letter C pages. Number page activities are based on Christmas presents, Christmas trees and other holiday themes. Each theme is cross-curricular. Math, writing, reading, literature, science, Bible and social studies all connect to the theme. Music, active games, recipes and food lessons are listed as well. I really like the free printable color, cut and paste games on First School. Preschoolers can make flashcards, sequencing cards, dominos, bingo or lotto games, matching games, card games and more. Each theme has printable games to reinforce lessons. There are so many educational crafts, activities, games and puzzles to print at First School. As a teacher and former homeschooler, it's exciting to see all the web resources available. Explore First School. ws today with your preschoolers. By Mar
