Storytime Theme: Touch
This is the fifth and final lesson plan in a five-part series for preschoolers to learn more about their five senses! Combining fiction and nonfiction titles, kids will learn about their own sense of touch with interactive stories and fun activities to learn about different textures.
This would also make a great lesson plan for a simple STEM program for preschoolers at a PreK classroom, library, or at home. Combine this lesson plan with a few science “experiments” using your taste for a complete program.
