Many of us are now homeschooling our kids due to what’s going on in our world today. I know the sudden switch to learning at home is a big one so I want to help you out. I’ve been working all weekend on a literacy packet for kindergarteners. I just put the finishing touches on it and it’s ready to share with you!
I wanted to create something for kindergartners because I know many of you teach or have a child in this grade. I actually have a child in early kindergarten right now, so I’ll be using this packet with him as well. I took my fairy tale lessons and nursery rhyme lessons and made the lessons for kindergarten-age.
Here’s what this packet includes:
- 125 pages of printable activities
- printable booklets for these stories:
- Jack and the Beanstalk
- Little Red Riding Hood
- The Little Red Hen
- The Three Little Pigs
- Goldilocks and the Three Bears
- Mary Had a Little Lamb
- Jack and Jill
- The Itsy Bitsy Spider
- Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star
- Hickory Dickory Dock
- Little Miss Muffet
- Row, Row, Row Your Boat
- Humpty Dumpty
- Hey Diddle Diddle
- Baa, Baa Black Sheep
- activities that work on the following skills:
- reading (or listening skills if they aren’t able to read the stories yet)
- comprehension skills
- sequencing
- rhyming
- syllables
- phonemic awareness (listening for sounds in words)
- fine motor skills
I want to point out that I am a big advocate for hands-on learning activities. I love sensory play, activities working on fine motor skills, and hands-on science activities. But right now your little ones might need some structured activities, like these. You may even be working from home right now and need some learning activities to keep your child busy.
You can choose to split the activities any way you’d like. Maybe you’ll focus on 1-2 stories per week.
If you are a teacher, you have my permission to share this packet with the students in your classroom. I want this to help as many people as possible!
I hope you love this packet and that it’s useful to you! Please share this post with anyone who would benefit from it! Fill the form out below to get the free packet.

Thank you SO much!!!
LOVED doing these with my three year old. She caught onto syllables so quickly. She loved the stories and the cut out pages to tell the story. Thank you for making ‘school’ fun!
Oh yay! So happy to hear this!! Hearing school is fun is always the best!
Thank you for your generosity, Angela. My daughter was so excited when j show her all the printables. And she’s looking forward to do the activitiy tomorrow 😀
Hi, I’m new to your site. I was wondering what your system is…are some activities free and some cost? Or do you post things for free at first and then charge after a period of time? I was looking at the Kindergarten Literacy Packet that says it’s still downloadable for free, but when I click the link, it goes to a shopping cart-type page. Thank you for all these wonderful resources!
Hello! Yes, most printables are free and some do cost. This printable is completely free. You do need to sign up to be on my newsletter to receive the PDF for free. Hope that helps!
Hi! I found the form on my phone to get the free packet (I don’t see it when I’m on my laptop) just want to say thank you! I feel like I have a solid place to start and something to work with!
I’m sorry about that glitch. Not sure what that happened!
THanks!
Thank you so much for sharing. Your site is one of my favourites. These packages will enhance my teaching program and I am sure will be enjoyed immensely by the children.
