Books and Activities for PreK-2nd

I found another great book at my local thrift shop that I think will be perfect for my younger groups. I started looking for crafts and found so many that I had to post! 

Pigs in the House by Steven Kroll 



I love this book for rhyme awareness! It follows three little pigs who escape from their pen and find their way inside the farmers house. I'm going to have the kiddos identify the words that rhyme on each page. It's a bit longer, so I will definitely split it up between two sessions. I found some fun piggy crafts on Pinterest to pair with this book. Some of my favorites include:


I love this "P" craft found here. This would definitely be a hit with my younger kiddos (PreK - 2nd). Add in following directions for assembly.


This fun craft would also be fun and great for following directions! 


There's always a good paper plate craft! This little piggy was made out of tissue paper cut outs and has awesome googley eyes! I scored some packets of googley eyes ranging in size from the Dollar Spot at Target - can't wait to use them.

  1. Yeah these days there are so many unique and fun ways for kids to learn rhymes. My kid’s go to Phoenix pre-k and there they learn rhymes with fun crafts. My daughter is really interested to make crafts of this “Pigs in the House” rhyme. Can you share how I can help her?
