Our Laminator and Laminating Sheets.
Spend an entire week in the spring or fall teaching about the weather or use these materials throughout the year in your circle time or science centers. Either way, these done-for-you printables will save you hours of prep and make learning about the weather a blast for your preschool and kindergarten kids.
This first set of preschool weather centers is focused on early math skills but they double as sensory play and fine motor practice. Take a look to see how we used them in our classroom.
These sensory play weather playdough mats are great for building number sense. Roll the rays to show the number. Form the number, and then make it in a 10 frame.
Work on subitizing and counting with this fun rain activity. We used plastic gems or you could use pom poms or flat marbles.
This sensory weather activity lets children stamp the rain with either ink or paint. It is great for working on one-to-one correspondence, a critical early math skill.
This counting sun is a fantastic way to work on fine motor skills while practicing counting and one-to-one correspondence.
How much rain have we accumulated? Have the children count and build rain towers.
Roll a dice to move the clothespin up and down the thermometer. This is a great math activity for preschool or kindergarten kids that are just starting addition and subtraction.
We are constantly working on literacy in preschool and kindergarten. In these weather theme literacy centers, kids can learn anything from letters, to sounds, to sight words.
It’s raining sight words. Can you spell the word in the raindrops?
Match the raindrops to the rainclouds. Which ones have the same beginning sounds?
Make a letter cloud. Tongs add grip strength and fine motor practice to this weather-themed literacy activity.
Match upper and lowercase letters together in this fun rain-themed activity.
Do you need a weather chart for preschool? Here are several fun options for you to make and use in your circle time or science centers.
Laminate the pieces of the chart and add velcro. Each day kids can place the correct picture on the chart to show the weather. Then move the clothespin on the thermometer to show the current temperature.
What should we wear for the weather today? Children can use these interactive weather charts to sort and show what clothing is appropriate for the different weather conditions.
How do we get our weather? This interactive water cycle chart helps children learn about where rain and snow come from and how they cycle through our planet and atmosphere.
Children work on weather patterns in this fun activity, rotating between rainbows, lightning, clouds, sun, snow, etc. This is great for patterns as well as weather vocabulary skills.
While learning about weather and clouds, kids can practice making their own clouds in shapes. We used cotton balls and stick glue for this activity.
You don’t want to be too close to lightning in real life, but studying it and its patterns can be fun. Here kids get to try tracing lighting with a crayon, marker, or pipe cleaners.
In addition to the hands-on activities above, we also created 15 fun weather worksheets for preschool or kindergarten. These worksheets back up what you’ve been learning all week and stack skills like tracing, scissor practice, sorting, and more.
This first set of worksheets is all about building weather vocabulary as well as tracing both words and pictures. These cute worksheets would be fantastic to send home as a little weather booklet at the end of the week.
This second set of weather worksheets focuses on math and counting skills and is great for preschool or kindergarten class work or homework.
With this last set of worksheets for your weather theme, you can work on literacy skills like letters, rhyming, and spelling your name or even get some extra patterns practice.

Hi, I love the clothing sort activity. Is it possible to just purchase this activity? Thanks!
We are unable to separate just one activity from a theme as it is time consuming. You can print only the pages you need to use.
Excellent ideas of all.
Please show us more material in hands on activities
Thank you.
Hello, is there a way to just get the dress for the weather activity?
Hi! Unfortunately we are not able to separate just one activity.
You can choose to print only what you need though. 🙂
