Packing Peanut Sculptures and Discovery Bottles – Preschool and Kindergarten Community

How’s the weather in your area? It’s really feeling like fall here which makes me want to break out all the fall-scented candles, go hiking with the kids, and find an orchard nearby. Time to make applesauce!

Stay tuned for some fun pumpkin and fall themed calendar printables too! I’ll be sharing some in the next few days with you all, so warm up your laminators and get your scissors ready to do some cutting!

Here are a few ideas to Pin and file to use with your kids in the next bit.

While packing peanuts are not my favorite thing to find in my house, this sculpture idea would be a great way to use them! Visit To the Moon and Back to read more of this fun activity.

The book We’re Going on a Bear Hunt was one of our FAVORITES, and this idea of using discovery bottles = brilliant. (Well, in my book – for what that’s worth). Visit Nestpirations for how she pulled this fun idea together.

Want to work on graphing and measuring with your young kiddos? Moms Have Questions Too shares 21 different graphing and measuring activities that you can try out.

It’s apple season and the ideas are rolling in for fun fall ideas. Here’s a simple apple counting and math activity using red water beads from 3 Dinosaurs.

For those of you who didn’t have a chance to join in the Discipleship and Discipline class, it is now available on-demand (which means you can watch the sessions as they were recorded at any time – woot!). Sally Clarkson and Sarah Mae are SUCH encouraging women and spent four days answering parenting questions and offering insight for moms who desperately need it. You can find out more here.

Have a great week. Can’t wait to see what you all have to share and link up this week!
