Activities for Preschoolers During Quarantine
/
I think we are all scrambling to find productive ways to spend our time at home over the next few weeks, so I thought I would share my ever evolving list of activities with you. Check back often for new additions. I won’t be adding activities to this list that require many supplies or time. The goal is to be engaging and fun!
Each new round of activities that I add will be separated by a line. Follow along on my Instagram for these ideas in action!
