Christmas for kids is one of the most exciting times of the year! We have plenty of free Christmas Activities for Children at Sea of Knowledge.

This Christmas themed learning binder includes activities to suit 3, 4 and and 5 year olds.

They will develop cognitive, fine motor, critical thinking skills and more. I made these books to help preschool kids practice their skills and ‘learn while they play’.
Most of the activities in the binder are based on play. They will get to use materials such as magnetic letters, play dough, string (for threading), number cards and much more!
This binder is perfect for long road trips, long haul flights, in home or preschool use. Use and re-use this binder countless times!

What you will need to put these binders together:

Laminator
Lamination pouches
Dry erase markers
Scissors
Hole puncher
Bottle tops, mini erasers, counting cubes
Round Binder Hooks

Putting the book together:

Choose which book you’d like to use with your preschooler and be sure to print the mats double sided. What I like to do is print the pages I want one at a time. Be sure to have two play mats on one page. This saves you a lot of paper and lamination pockets (so you would have 5 play mats but 10 activities in one binder).

Laminate these pages along with the pages that have the pieces you will need for the matching activities. Cut up the pieces, use a rubber band to keep them together and store them in a sandwich bag.

Rudolph Bottle Top Roll and Number Match Mat (included in the Age 3-4 FREE book below)

This activity will get kids rolling the die and finding the matching number on the mat and covering it with bottle tops. You can use mini erasers or counting cubes here too. To differentiate this activity, you can buy some of these numbered foam dice and have the kids match number digits – number digits. This is what I’ve done, I’ve also prepared to use this with my 3 year olds who can only match identical numbers.
