Hey friends! I’m so excited to share with y’all this collection of homeschool preschool resources for toddlers! Once LG hit about 2.5 years old, I decided to ease into a super relaxed homeschool preschool routine. In this post you’ll find lots of the resources we enjoyed! There are so many fun, hands-on activities that are developmentally appropriate for introducing your little ones to school time!

Sensory Bin Puzzles & Matching Mats
One of the very first “school” skills I introduced LG to was matching. Adding this skill to our favorite sensory bins was a super simple way to take our free play sensory bins up just a notch, and introduced her “academic” sensory bins. For this activity, I placed the sensory bin pieces in the bin. As she pulled pieces out, I assisted her in finding the correct matches on the matching mats. This is a great way to practice fine motor skills with a twist!
Nursery Rhymes Fine Motor Skills Activities
Nursery rhymes are just a given when you’re choosing toddler activities! The classic rhymes are perfect for introducing little ones rhyme, rhythm, and literature! But of course we had to take them just a little bit further by adding some fine motor skills activities!
If your little ones enjoy our Sensory Bin Puzzles & Matching Mats, they’ll absolutely love these sets! With each nursery rhyme you’ll find a puzzle, a matching mat, themed PlayDoh building cards, tracing cards, and scissor skill strips!
NO PREP Fine Motor Activities
Fine motor skills practice is SO important when choosing toddler activities for our little learners, but that doesn’t mean it has to been stressful! These NO PREP fine motor skills worksheets are full of meaningful practice without tons of prep work. Children will strengthen their fine motor skills by cutting, tearing, tracing, sorting, coloring, and so much more!
Bible Story Sensory Bin Matching Mats
Have you sensed a theme here yet??? We LOVE using our sensory bins in as many ways as possible! It’s so important to constantly work on fine motor skills with littles, so we’re always looking for new ways to keep the practice new and exciting!
If you’re also working on introducing Bible study with your little ones (it’s never too early OR too late!) be sure to check out our Bible Story themed matching mats!
Preschool Skills Sensory Bins
Is your little one ready to start working on more academic skills? This bundle is exactly what you need in your collection of toddler activities! While practicing important fine motor skills, your Preschoolers will be introduced to academic skills like colors, numbers, shapes, counting, letters, beginning sounds, and so much more!
