FINDING ACTIVITIES QUICKLY: USING THE SEARCH BAR
How It Works
- Look for the magnifying glass icon at the top of the page or find the box labeled “Search.”
- Be specific: Instead of typing “art,” try “painting with watercolors for preschoolers” or “easy science experiments for ages 4–5.” This helps you find the most relevant activities.

FILTERING ACTIVITIES BY AGE AND TOPIC
Age Groups
We organize our activities into age categories like 3–5 and 6–8, but remember, you can adapt them for different age ranges. This flexibility ensures that every child can find activities that suit their unique needs and interests.
Topics & Tags
You can also browse by topics (crafts, science, reading) and tags (e.g., “STEM,” “printable,” “holiday crafts”). Click on a tag at the end of any post to see related activities.
Pro Tip: Try mixing and matching tags (like “STEM” + “3–5”) to find exactly what you need.
