Most of us have computers in our homes. Our children are familiar with them and may even use them independently. However, much of the learning while using a computer will come from the interaction between you and your child, not from interaction with the computer. Your preschool child's language development is nurtured through shared reading, conversations, singing, nursery rhymes, and sharing stories and experiences. Using your computer to enhance language learning will involve exploring and talking about the computer activities together. This web page contains over 250 links leading to hundreds of activities designed for young children. I created this page for the parents of my preschool students and for the wonderful preschool teachers that I work with daily. Please note that these are my personal web pages and they are not connected in any way to the school or to the school system. These pages have been provided to me at no charge and I have no control over ads or pop-ups that appear on this site. |

The ECSE teachers that I work with love this site. Kiz Club appears to be an ESL site in Korea. Story Patterns for popular children's literature can be found at this site along with mini books that can be printed or read on-line. I have found great clip art and there are many are also flash cards, worksheets, crafts and other activities to print and play. You will find activities for rhyming words, positional words, counting and more. Don't forget to look at the page marked "resources" for many activities.
Speechtx.com offers clip art and activities for articulation therapy, "how-to" pages for technology, has downloadable PowerPoint books for many language concepts, offers suggestions for language activities, and has activities to go along with many popular children's literature selections. Sign up for her free monthly newsletter.
Fisher-Price Online Games and Activities are grouped by levels of keyboarding skills. Infant activities respond to tapping at the keyboard, while activities for toddlers and preschoolers involve more use of the mouse.
Sesame Street.org is a fantastic web site. You can spend hours on this site and still have much to do. Click on Games and choose Browse All Games to see the many games and activities. You can also create your own page, My Street, to save your favorite activities. Activities that I have used in therapy are Make a Monster, KEYBOARD-O-RAMA and Limbo Elmo.
Starfall.com has great seasonal activities, a wonderful introduction to letter sounds, and some easy to read fiction and nonfiction books. Good for the beginning reader, but also very good for those children who need to increase their sentence production and practice answering questions. Black and white versions of the books on the site can be printed by clicking here. There are games or movies to go along with most of the books.
Activities at Scholastic.com Clifford can be found at this site. Play Clifford's Match Game, Dress Clifford or play my favorite, Peek-a-boo Puppy. Vocabulary introduced in this game includes spatial concepts such as behind and under and descriptive words such as stripes and purple. Items are also identified by their function (look behind "the toy that bounces" or "in the thing that is worn on a hand."). At School House Scramble you can put sequence cards in the correct order. Go to the Learning Arcade to play a variety of activities with Barney, Clifford, Franklin, and more.
Look at all of the games and activities at Noggin.com. Noggin is an educational channel dedicated to preschoolers 12 hours a day, 7 days a week, but available only with digital cable or satellite. Their web pages are full of free educational activities for your preschool child. Storytime is my favorite activity on the site. Familiar stories like "Goldilocks and the Three Bears" unfold with new endings. Sequence pictures of the story in Storyteller Puzzle and create a scene with Story Stickers. There are coloring pictures and more.
This award winning site Story Place, the Children's Digital Library is sponsored by the Public Library of Charlotte & Mecklenburg County in North Carolina. The Preschool Library contains fourteen books with audio and animation. Along with each book is a computer activity, a craft to print and make, and a reading list of books related to the theme of the animated book. You may also want to look at the stories in the Elementary Library.
You will like PBS Kids. Build a Neighborhood lets you create a scene in Mr. Rogers Neighborhood. Play Hide and Seek with Jay Jay and find many more Clifford games and activities (different from Scholastic). See Barney, the Bernstain Bears, Caillou, and more.
Peep and the Big Wide World is a great preschool site based on the animated series which highlights science concepts. Children can match animals to homes and complete patterns. I liked Trash Stash, a great sorting game and Bunny Balance which targets the concepts heavy and light. The site also includes simple science activities for parents and very nice resource guides for teachers. Teachers and parents will like Jean Warren's site, Preschool Express.com. Ideas for lesson plans, art, and motor activities are provided. I like the monthly calendars, alphabet activities, and simple games that can be used at home or at school. Carl's Corner is an incredibly huge web site created by Cherry Carl, a retired (or should I say semi-retired) teacher. The printable books can be used for therapy or home practice. There are printables for just about any language arts related activity. |
