ALPHABET! Free Printable Mini Books

By -
These free printable mini books are the perfect mini books to help your preschooler begin to recognize the letters of the alphabet and the sounds they make!



Each free printable comes in a coloring-book style mini book that you staple together for your preschool child. Let your kiddos color the pictures, identify the letter, and talk about the words in their mini books. (Did you know that coloring strengthens the same muscles that kids will need for writing?!)

One of the signals I had that my preschooler was ready to start learning to read was when we were talking about the letter A one day and she said, "I know all the words that start with A. All the words in my A Book start with A: alligator, ant, apple, airplane, acorn..." and then she got distracted. Short attention span. BUT she knew "all the words" in her little book started with A. I knew we were ready for the next step.

Some kids in preschool enjoy coloring book worksheet-style pages...and others don't. I have two right now that absolutely love them, so we set to work making a whole set to cover the alphabet. My girls love to "read" them to anyone who will listen! If your kids don't like to color (and, oh boy, have we had kids that don't color!), don't stress about it! Try some of our more sensory-intense activities instead (like making fossils or sparkly explosions), and come back to letters and coloring pages when they can sit for two minutes at a time. ;)  

These mini books are easy to download and easy to print! I'm not requiring email addresses, registering, or anything like that! You are always welcome to sign up for my weekly email, but you don't have to! In fact, all you have to do to get each printable mini book is click on the letter you want (either the image or list below) and download the page!

You can work on one letter a day, or stay on the same letter for a whole week...or more! I will be uploading one letter a week for the next 26 weeks! They are fun additions to letter of the week programs or themed curricula!

Science Experiment: Elephant Toothpaste

By -

Update: "Elephant toothpaste" is a science experiment that I used to do with my high school students.  It is a strong multi-sensory demonstration that goes great with a lot of chemistry concepts. It is also very popular with preschoolers and homeschoolers!  The internet loves it too! It has now been read by more than 3.9 million people! This was the post that started the trend on science activity sites across the internet and "irl!"  Thank you for being here...I hope you enjoy it as well!  💕  This exciting science experiment works great in a discussion on reactions, as a demonstration, or as an actual experiment. We've also done seasonal twists with "elephant toothpaste" like making it in a pumpkin and using it for " reindeer toothpaste !" To use it as a science project, perform it once with your child, then ask your child what might happen if you changed the amounts or left out an ingredient.  Any time you experiment

This sensory lesson includes a kindness activity for kids that is short and sweet,  and makes teaching kindness a beautiful thing! Learning to use kind words with our friends is one friendship lesson that I think we can never cover enough...kids always need reminding (sometimes adults do too)!  You will need these simple supplies for the kindness activity: cotton balls, course sandpaper, cup, Should I Share My Ice-Cream by Mo Willems Directly teaching good friendship skills, like using kind words, serves two purposes: 1- You can refer to the lesson when someone forgets or needs reminding, and 2- These skills are not intuitive for all preschoolers. This is a perfect age to bring empathy and kindness to their attention and help them cultivate these skills! You can use this lesson plan exactly as I did it with our kiddos, or adapt it to fit your group! 1- Read  Should I Share My Ice-Cream  by Mo Willems.   {Image below is an Amazon Affiliate Link:} D

Do you know what color giraffe skin is? Today we're using a capillary action science experiment to make our own giraffe skins in this fun giraffe science experiment project! (Read on...I'll tell you the color in a moment! AND I have a few more fun giraffe facts at the end! Anyway, go on and make a guess before you see the answer!) Fun Spot  Giraffe  Fact:  There are four different giraffe species:  the Masai Giraffe, the Rothschild Giraffe, the Somali Giraffe, and the Nigerian Giraffe.  Each has its own unique spot pattern.  Even more unique, every single individual giraffe has a different spot design.  Just like fingerprints on people and stripes on a zebra, spots on a giraffe are unique in every individual! Giraffe skin is mostly grey. (Were you right?) It's also really tough and thick.  The coat is a shade of tan with brown spots or patches.  Male giraffes actually get darker as they get older! To make our "giraffe skin" we're going to us
