Frog Science for Preschool | Life Cycle & STEM Activities

How does a frog change as it grows? How far can it hop? Preschoolers can explore frog life through pictures, sensory play, movement, measuring, and simple experiments. From frog eggs to sticky tongues and webbed feet, each topic gives children something to observe, try, and talk about.

For teachers, the posters provide a starting point for a frog or pond unit. Use the activities in small groups or at your science center, and bring the frog-hop measuring game into an open space when it's time to move! A fun spring science lesson that preschoolers love!
