EYFS and KS1 winter activities and teaching ideas

Our winter resources and activities cover a wide range of ideas for early years and primary classrooms. Choose from:

• Crafts and fine motor activities: practise scissor skills with the popular make your own snowflake activity, perfect for creative winter displays.
• Science and geography PowerPoints: explain seasonal changes with the plants and animals in winter PowerPoint and the winter weather PowerPoint.
• English links: use the winter poem reading comprehension for Year 2 and lower KS2 to build reading skills through seasonal poetry.
• Colouring and mindfulness: set up provision areas with winter colouring sheets, winter mindfulness colouring pages and winter clothes colouring sheets to support fine motor skills and calm focus.
• Provision planning: simplify seasonal planning with the Miss LVT winter provision topic pack or the Mr C Winter celebrations provision pack, both written by expert EYFS teachers.

These winter EYFS and KS1 activities are ideal for continuous provision, whole-class teaching or quick fillers during rehearsals and busy days. They help children develop vocabulary, fine motor control, scientific understanding and creativity while celebrating the season.
