This week’s featured book for preschoolers is Little Cloud by Eric Carle.
In this delightful book by one of our favorite illustrators, the little cloud floats and does his own thing changing shape.
We love to read the book and then head out and cloud watch ourselves to see what shapes we can spot amongst the clouds in the sky.

Weather Week Plan for Preschool
Each week we share 5 simple activities to do with your preschool. One of our suggestions for scheduling your week is shown in the image below.
With an activity a day you have the opportunity to read the book and then carry out the simple activity each day of the week with your preschooler.
Of course, you could take a day and host your own preschool play date and do the activities together or with friends as well.
Why not pop over into our Facebook Group this week and let us know how you are scheduling your week to help other parents and educators.
Simple Preschool Weather Activities for your Week Ahead
Click through to the fun and simple activities for our weather week with preschoolers below.
A simple Sensory Bin for this week's sensory activity - you could leave it without adding in the letter clouds but why not mix in some letter practice as well.
Jump and learn with this puddle splashing indoor game. Have your preschoolers make the puddles with you and then create them. It will use up some of their energy as well as get them recognizing the letters.
Count the raindrops with this craft and count activity for numbers 1 to 10.
Yummy and simple these Sun Crackers are a great snack to make with your preschooler this week.
From our sunshine snack to a thunderstorm art project for this week's art and craft activity for weather week.
