Fall Preschool Unit Ideas

We often get emails from readers like you asking us if we have more ideas that can go together to make a preschool unit. This headband owl goes perfectly with fall, so we’re sharing our favorite fall crafts, activities and ideas to make a fall themed preschool unit.

To begin with try these fall printables for preschool kids or these fall worksheets for preschoolers.

These printables are great for working on a variety of concepts preschoolers are learning like:

  • pre-writing practice
  • patterns
  • shapes
  • colors
  • counting
  • hand-eye coordination

Plus, they’re virtually no-prep! Just download, print and get started.

We also like using these fall pattern block mats to give the kids some hands-on learning time. We recommend laminating them and setting them out from time to time for kids to work on!
