Preschool Play Tricks is a simple, hands-on, play-based curriculum designed for ages 2-4. Each themed unit contains 10 days of learning at home! Designed by a teacher Mom and based on learning standards, each lesson combines play-based activities and hands-on printables to make learning together organized and fun!

This listing is the "Food & Nutrition" theme. There are two driving questions that guide the focus of this unit: "What kind of foods do we eat?" and "What does food do in our body?" Together with your child you'll read several read alouds and practice making predictions, participating in a discussion, retelling, and responding to open-ended questions. Your child will sort by color, type, and match pairs. Practice recognizing a 3D shape's face, identifying basic 2D shapes, practice counting with one-to-one correspondence from 1-10, and subitizing using a ten frame. You'll focus on letters Cc and Rr (the letter sounds, names, and identifying upper and lowercase). Your child will also participate in a measurement and patterning activity. There are several art, sensory and science activities to promote exploring and observing.
