3-4 years old children are vocal and curious about the world around them. They can recognize colors and notice differences in the shapes of different objects. It is the best time to further sharpen their brain development by giving them challenging worksheets and working on developing their critical thinking. This is Part 4 of my Preschool worksheets for teaching such critical thinking to children. It focuses on patterns of shapes and pictures. These worksheets are meant to sharpen children's critical thinking by making them think in patterns. They have to complete patterns, match similar pictures, and find odd pictures out.  It is very easy to use these worksheets. Print them out on an A4 size paper and give them to your child with a crayon or a pencil. These worksheets can also be done verbally by speaking if the child doesn't have a good pencil/crayon grip. I recommend that you first start with the previous parts of the Preschool worksheets as all of these worksheets are ...

Earth is home to many kinds of animals. Children are always fascinated by animals. They want to keep rabbits, birds, or turtles as pets. They are always excited to see movies about dogs, wolves, and even lions. When a child is introduced to the subject of Science, an introduction to the Animal World is a must.  I have designed this easy-to-understand booklet with information about animals along with corresponding worksheets. I haven't introduced all the animal groups because I didn't want to make it too complicated. Science should be introduced in bite-size portions as a child's mind can be overwhelmed with too much information.  So, I hope that you like this booklet on Animal World. I believe that your children will enjoy learning about animals in a fun way. Just print out the PDF file on A4-size paper. The booklet can be used by both kindergarten and Grade 1-2 aged children. Kindergarten-aged children can do it orally 😊 Download PDF I hope you like this effort. All my ...

This is the third edition of my preschool worksheets that teach critical skills needed for brain development. They are essential for logical thinking so I call these worksheets logic games   😉 These worksheets introduce essential maths concepts such as weight, volume, size, height, length, and quantity in such a way that can be easily grasped by a 3.5-5 yrs old child. If your child doesn't have a pencil grip yet, no worries: do it with a thick crayon. If they are not ready for crayons, don't pressurize; do these worksheets verbally. These worksheets are colorful and fun so I am hoping that the children will be quite cooperative doing them 😉.  Also, you can download my  Countville App  for your children for very entertaining number recognition and counting practice.   Download PDF Part 1 Preschool worksheets Part 2 Preschool worksheets Please like my Facebook page and Instagram page for more educational resources and tips.

Halloween is not a new holiday. People have been celebrating Halloween for 2000 years now. Nowadays, children dress up as their favorite monsters but in medieval times, older people also used to dress up, and instead of candies, they used to ask for money! In modern times, as October begins, people decorate their front yards with Halloween decorations. Fake tombstones, lit-up pumpkins, and other scary decorations become a common sight. Speaking of decorations, I found this very cute Halloween decoration idea that you can work on with your children: Suncatchers. There is something magical about sun catchers and the ones that I found are Halloween-themed so perfect for this time of the year:  (ad) Halloween celebrations are not just restricted to Europe and North America. It is now becoming quite common to have costume parties on Halloween in other countries too. Since children love to dress up for Halloween, I felt that reading and writing about their favorite monsters may just be...

Hello friends, Let's talk about learning for preschoolers: Structured learning is not important for children less than 3 years of age. It is the time to just play with colorful blocks or other toys that stimulate the imagination . This playing time will teach the children many things: colors, size, balance, shapes, and much, much more. Some cute coloring pages with crayons will lay the foundation for their future pencil grip 😊. However, you should contribute to this learning process by playing with them and asking questions. Children are naturally curious and most of the time, they will be the ones asking questions but you should also query them about colors and shapes. Once the children can hold a crayon, give them some beginning-level worksheets such as matching worksheets that I published some time ago for developing their analytical and logical thinking. You can have a look at them here . Now, the most important thing is that don't force your children to do any works...
