Weather Crafts for Preschoolers -- a rainbow and cloud craft for weather themes

I'm super excited about this weather craft for preschoolers. It's perfect for kindergarten, first, and second grade science activities too. Add a rainbow craft to your next weather lesson or weather unit.

 This simple craft lets young students cut and paste and color. Students will cut out the sun, paste the sun rays, glue cotton balls to the cloud (you will need 14 cotton balls for each student or you can use a dauber or bingo marker), and color the colors of the rainbow.

This is great for working with learning colors too. (This craft uses purple instead of indigo and violet since those colors are not in the 8 pack of crayons.) This weather craft makes a great bulletin boards too so be sure to display them. You can find it in my teaching resource store {HERE}.

I want to add a little update. Check out what the students of a teacher friend created in their class this week.

Four Seasons Tree Craft: A 3D Foldable Seasons of a Tree Craftivity

I love hands on learning and I'm adding more foldable teaching resources to my teaching bag. We teach about the seasons changing throughout the year and one of the best ways to do this is with trees. In fact, if your students can see a tree outside of your class window, ask them to draw and color a picture of that tree throughout the school year.

I just created my Four Seasons of  a Tree Craft where students use sequencing cards of the seasons and make them into a 3D craft. It's a perfect tree craftivity for little hands to learn about the seasons and it makes a great class decoration too.

I printed the tree top on green paper, but you can use any color that you'd like and maybe even find some cool printed paper too. I even created a four seasons classroom poster.
