Can you believe it is only a few weeks away from Halloween?! We have lots of Halloween type themes coming up starting with this cute monster theme. Monsters can be scary for younger children, so this theme will help them see how funny looking they can be. Lots of color and number recognition skills will be reinforced with this theme. Hope your little monsters have fun with these activities!
NOTE: Some of the activity links go straight to a pin on Pinterest instead of a blog page. Read the description of the pin for the activity instructions. If you are new here, make sure to check out the Themed Curriculum page for more details about how to use this curriculum. Looking for a different theme? Check out all of our themes here.
