Community Helpers Preschool Theme

Monday, September 10, 2018
Do your kiddos love community helpers? Mine sure do, so this theme was a BLAST!
These activities and printables come from my Community Helper Pack in my TPT shop. They are perfect for preschool and PreK students.

 



Post Office Beginning Sounds- We stared the week by playing post office. Hayden matched the post cards to a stamp with that beginning sound. I attached each stamp with Velcro, and he placed it in our Melissa and Doug mailbox. He LOVED this, and it kept both my boys busy for quite awhile!!!









Brush Away the Sugar
- Hayden used an old toothbrush to brush away the sugar! Under the layer of sugar, were letters. As he found the letters, he traced them on the recording sheet.






Firefighter Shapes- I squirted orange paint into a bag, and zipped it tight! Then we used our shape cards to identify and draw the shapes on the paint bag.




Fine Motor Tooth Count- Marshmallows make everything more FUN! Hayden counted to 20 using marshmallow teeth and tongs.






Garbage Color Sort- Both of my boys look forward to garbage day, so this was right up their alley! We used a small garbage truck and colorful Legos. Hayden sorted the Legos into the correct colored square.





Sight Word Garbage- Next, he fed the garbage can sight words. This also comes with letters!






Fire Alphabet Rescue- Fire fighter day was their favorite. Grayson pulled the alphabet fires off of the houses.







911 Craft- The boys worked together to complete a 911 craft with tissue paper.






Building Patterns-
Hayden constructed patterns with our construction pattern cards, blocks, and paint! Grayson helped, working on identifying shapes!







Construction Towers- Hayden used cubes to count and stack towers.





 
Community Helper Puzzles- I always included a puzzle activity, for my little puzzle lover. He completed the community helper puzzles by matching each helper to tools they use.







Community Helper Sounds- This was a beginning sound clip card. He clipped a clothespin to a picture with that letter as a beginning sound. Great for fine motor skills too!






Subitizing Band- Aids- This was kind of like dominos, but to practice subitizing numbers.






Chef Pom Pom Count-  pretended to be a chef and counted and created pom pom stew.





This activity pack has SO MANY things, we didn't get a chance to do them all.

But if you'd like to check it out, the Community Helper Preschool Pack is in my TPT shop!




Here is a fun freebie! Band aid shape match.
