20 Fun Preschool Winter Crafts

Last Updated on September 19, 2021 by Sheryl Cooper

Inside: This collection of preschool winter crafts is pure fun! Perfect for the classroom or the kitchen table, and as part of your winter theme.

As the temperatures are dropping (it’s in the low 30s where I live right now), I am thinking of all the activities I can add to our winter unit!

I found a fun collection of fun preschool winter crafts  that I wanted to share with all of you. Actually, older children would enjoy them, too!

If you are a teacher, these activities would work well on your classroom art table. They also display well on bulletin boards or windows!

If you are a parent, make a pot of hot cocoa for the kids and settle down at the kitchen table with your kids. Have fun making these winter crafts! (They also work great for play dates!)
