Preschool Activity Ideas for February

Here are some fun resources, activities, and engaging ideas for you to celebrate throughout the month of February. February is a month that’s a tad shorter than the rest but still packed with fun and important holidays! February is a great month to focus on love, friendships, community, and dental health.

Post Office 

Where would we be without the post office? What better time than February to talk to your preschoolers about the important role the post office plays in our everyday life. And, preschoolers love getting mail. Our free post office theme page is full of fun activities and crafts to teach your preschoolers more about the mail system. You can also check out our related resources, and books picks for this theme!

Post Office Dramatic Play 

Adding a ​Post Office Dramatic play center is an excellent way to teach your preschoolers about how the mail system works! And, gives your preschooler the opportunity to be the mail man/woman.

DIY Mail Bag

Guess Whose Smile 

This is the perfect bulletin boards to display for February (it's perfect for Dental health or valentine's week) It is such a fun activity for students and parents to guess who is who. You can also make a class booklet or a worksheet to send home as an activity for preschoolers to do with their parents. ​Member Karen J. created this great Smile Display!

Dental Health 

Dental health is one of those themes that is packed with soooo many hidden activities that are awesome. It is a theme that is both educational and super engaging for preschool students. It's a great time to try activities like painting with a toothbrush and discussing the importance of good dental health. A dental health theme is perfect for celebrating in February since it's National Dental Health Month. If you are looking for more dental health activities, our Dental Health activity pack has many options for you to incorporate with your preschoolers. 

Dental Office Dramatic Play

Often times the dentist can be a scary place for young children. It's different than going to the doctor as it's a bit invasive. But, setting up a dentist office in your classroom can help preschoolers ease their worries and be excited about going to the dentist. 

Toothbrush Painting 

A simple yet fun experience for preschoolers. This out of the box process art toothbrush painting activity allows preschoolers to learn about the different texture and ways a toothbrush works. Grab your favorite colors and hit the paper!

February 21st is President's Day. The concept of presidents can be a confusing topic for our preschoolers but with fun and simple activities it can be a great learning experience. Grab a few books and dive into this topic! And, ask your preschooler what they would do if they were president...a fun and hilarious activity! Acut and paste activity can be a helpful way to introduce the foundations of our presidents. 

Superbowl 

Every year the Super Bowl is hosted during the month of February. Whether you have little football fans on your hands or not, this month is a great time to introduce football and sports into your classrooms. And, what an excellent opportunity to teach your students about a classic American tradition.
