Preschool Apple Activities and Centers

The Apple Acitivites in the Math and Literacy Centers offer an interactive approach for preschoolers to explore and express their unique identities. Filled with diverse hands-on activities, these morning tubs provide a vibrant range of tools that encourage self-discovery and creativity. From creating shape apple pies to finding letters in the apple trees, our morning tubs cultivate an engaging and stimulating environment where children can start their day while delving into the exciting journey of self-awareness.

1. Socialization: The activities provides opportunities for children to engage in collaborative learning through small groups, they can share materials, tackle challenges together, begin conversations, play, and learn with their tablemates. These activities foster teamwork and communication skills.
   
2. Creativity and Play: Both are something we can build and increase by spending time working on it. Math and Literacy Centers are a perfect way to introduce a little more play and freedom into learning rather than traditional worksheets or morning work that kept kids busy but did not encourage creativity and play.
