Next up in my 10 Days of Free Themed Preschool Lesson plans is the second post in my Seasons unit. And it’s my favorite season of all!
Summer!
As a teacher, I think I’d love summer by default even if I didn’t love everything else that comes with it, but I love everything summer!
Watermelon, cookouts, swimming in the hot sun, beach trips, fireworks…the list goes on and on! Even the heat doesn’t bother me as long as I’m near water!
This summer unit is one I’m so excited to use with my own kiddos in the coming weeks!
Just like in the rest of my posts you can find all of these pins on my Pinterest Preschool Science board. Be sure to follow me there so you can see all the ideas I’m pinning!
All the pins referenced in my lesson plans are also linked inside this post! Just click on them and you’ll go directly to the pin and then the site!

Books about Summer for Preschoolers
The books listed in this plan highlight all of my favorite things about summer! I especially love Marshmallow Kisses, as its the perfect read before a summer campfire!
Don’t forget, you can often score these books dirt cheap on Amazon by buying used. I got a paperback of one of my favorites the other day for just $3 shipped! I’ve linked the books below so you can look and see what deals there are!

Summer Preschool Crafts
So, as a rule jellyfish aren’t my favorites. My daughter had a horrific experience being stung multiply by one, as did I as a child. But even I have to admit this craft is super cute!
How much fun would this be?! We will be trying this one very soon!!
These sun catchers are so pretty and so simple to make! This is another super simple and fun craft!Who doesn’t love watermelon?! And these cute fans would surely come in handy in the summer heat!
I did a quick search of Amazon for some of the materials that might be harder to find. I linked them below for easy access!
Preschool Summer Activities
We love moon dough! This fun little activity would be perfect right now!
This reminds me so much of puffy paint! My inner 90s child loves this activity most of all! We go through a ton of bubbles, so this recipe will come in handy and make a super fun activity!
This activity is so much fun! I used to do it with my kindergartners at the end of the year and it was always a hit!
This activity looks fun and delicious! We love us some S’mores around here!
Free Preschool Worksheets for Summer
I found lots of cute free worksheets that go along with summer! I linked the ones mentioned in my lesson plan below and there are several more linked on my Preschool Science Board on Pinterest.
Don’t forget, I’m doing 10 days of free lesson plans, so be sure to pin my main post to come back to later. Don’t forget to follow me on Pinterest too so you can find all these fun crafts and activities when you need them!
