Kick off the season right with a few simple back to school preschool science activities to start incorporating into your science time right away. Set up science discovery tables, try simple science activities, and hands on STEM projects to peak your kid’s curiosity! Encourage skills that will serve them their whole life too. Science and STEM at home or in the classroom is a must.
BACK TO SCHOOL PRESCHOOL SCIENCE ACTIVITIES AND MORE
Young kids, including older toddlers, preschoolers, kindergarteners, and even early elementary age kids thrive on play and hands-on activities. We started many of these activities when my son was in preschool, but they are also equally great for the slightly older kids who have greater participation, fine motor, and independent work skills.
We do have a post with free science worksheets if you want a journal type entry page to go along with an activity! This also helps when you have several ages working and learning together on the same science project.
