Preschool Activities for a Farm Theme

June 11, 2017 By Seemi

A few years ago we offered weekly summer camps at our school.  The pace of the day was quite relaxed and the teacher experimented with a few more traditional preschool themes.  One week they focused on farms.  If you teach in a traditional preschool classroom or just want to add some fun little farm activities to your shelves, you might enjoy these ideas!



 

Set up a little farm.  Children can arrange and play as they desire.  You can even sneak in some grammar farm lessons with this!  I love using materials like this to play simple “function of word” games.  (For example, you can teach positional words with sentences like “the cow is behind the tractor” or “the lamb is in the pen” etc.)

 

We added grains and milk to our pouring work

Tonging and transferring mini apples

Spooning and measuring corn kernels

Tonging white and yellow pompoms into an egg carton!

Horse washing/polishing!  Inspired by Discovery Days and Montessori Moments

Knobbed puzzles

Animal movement command cards from Lil Mop Top

Another fun movement game: Animal charades! (Source: unknown)

Farm animal nomenclature cards from The Helpful Garden

This is such a great little activity for vocabulary development!  I wish I knew the source of this material.

Sorting animal models: How Many Legs Do I Have?  Printable found here.

We put some mini apples in a basket and this child combined them with the sandpaper numbers to create a counting work!
