Preschool Licorice Activity
I love preschool learning activities that I can customize many, many different ways and activities that don’t break the bank. In my previous life as a preschool teacher, we often did this Twizzlers activity. Not only can you purchase the licorice for $1 at the local dollar store and get enough licorice strands for a few preschoolers, you can do different learning activities to accommodate different children at different learning levels. You can have your preschooler practice letters, numbers, or shapes. You could have your preschooler work on learning their name or site words. Or you could even have fun with the licorice and just make hair for a stick figure. What could be better than an activity with your preschooler that involves a tasty treat that you can share after all the learning is completed? Here’s all you’ll need to make this fun and edible preschool learning activity:
Materials:
- Twizzlers (the kind that the strands pull apart)
- Paper
- Markers
- Ruler (optional, for drawing straight lines)
