Winter is here, and with it comes an opportunity to incorporate meaningful winter activities in our classrooms!
I’m excited to share with you some amazing winter themed resources for your classroom! Here you have some activities to introduce this topic in kindergarten.

Children love Eric Carle’s books because his books always offer children the opportunity to learn something about the world around them through simple stories and wonderful illustrations.
Below is an adapted book based on Eric Carle’s “Polar Bear. What do you hear?”. Upon reading, learners can identify animals, winter activities and numbers.
For added fun, use these winter activities yoga to stretch together as a class!
Get ready to roll, slide, clap and bounce in this winter snowman brain break and movement activity “Snowman Dance”. Kids movement activity for winter and January music and movement activities by Sandra at Sing Play Create.
Make practicing visual discrimination and counting lots of fun with this winter themed activity
A great snowflake crafts for kids are simply by buttons, take a sheet of cardboard, carve it out in the shape of a snowflake, stick a white sheet to it, then just stick some beautiful button to it or the glittered buttons
Little Snowflake brings together the same team that created the Twinkle Twinkle Little Star video to tell a short story of a snowman brought to life by the magic and beauty of snowfall. As he tries to ice skate, he learns the value of perseverance and teamwork. Along the way, we get to learn and review parts of the body (head, nose, hand). I hope you love it!
Winter is about to finish and I don’t want to say it goodbaye without looking back over the last month and remembering some significant moments we have spent working on our Winter Project.
This topic was explored through songs, games and art crafts which allowed them to learn a lot of things related to this season (clothes, weather, instructions, numbers, colours, feelings,..) in an easy and fun way.
O inverno está a piques de rematar e non quero despedilo sen antes botar unha ollada ao traballo que estivemos facendo este último mes co noso proxecto sobre o inverno. A través de cancións, xogos e manualidades traballamos esta temática e aprendemos conceptos relacionados con esta estación(o tempo, a roupa,…), instruccións e revisamos as cores e os números dun xeito sinxelo e divertido. Pero asegúrovos que non hai nada mellor que unha guerra de bolas de neve para arrancar un gran sorriso aos cativos. Comprobado!!!!!
It’s winter time! It’s too cold outside to play with the snow without winter clothes. Do you wear your hat, coat, scarf and jacket? And what about your boots?
Listen, get dressed and let’s play snow war!
Here you have an easy song that you can incorporate actions into to make it funnier from teachermama.org

Our first experience working with lim was a success. Before working with computers, my children worked in pair on the interactive board in order to know how lim works. To my surprise ,they learned quickly how to work with this web tool . It was an awesome experience. We’ll repeat this experience soon.
A nosa primeira experiencia con lim foi un éxito. Antes de pasar a traballar cos ordenadores, os rapaces traballaron na pizarra dixital para coñecer como funciona esta ferramenta. E para a miña sorpresa, rápidamente aprenderon o seu manexo. Foi unha experiencia increíble que imos repetir axiña.
Snow (1998 Parents’ Choice Recommended)
Written and Illustrated by Uri Shulevitz
Farrar Straus & Giroux
Ages 3 – 7
“It’s snowing, said boy with dog.” “It’s only a snowflake,” said grandfather with beard.”
The sky is grey and it is very cold but, as snowflakes slowly come down, one by one, people in the city ignore them.Only a boy and his dog believe that it is going to snow.
After reading this wonderfull book, why don’t we sing this song? Along the way, children get learn and review parts of the body.
Little Snowflake Lyrics:
Snowflake, snowflake, little snowflake.
Little snowflake falling from the sky.
Snowflake, snowflake, little snowflake.
Falling, falling, falling, falling, falling,
falling, falling, falling, falling…falling on my head.
Snowflake, snowflake, little snowflake.
Little snowflake falling from the sky.
Snowflake, snowflake, little snowflake.
Falling, falling, falling, falling, falling,
falling, falling, falling, falling…falling on my nose.
Snowflake, snowflake, little snowflake.
Little snowflake falling from the sky.
Snowflake, snowflake, little snowflake.
Falling, falling, falling, falling, falling,
falling, falling, falling, falling…falling in my hand.
Falling on my head.
Falling on my nose.
Falling in my hand.
Snowflake, snowflake, little snowflake…
