22 Awesome Warm up Activities for Preschool

Check out these fun warm up activities and games that are perfect for preschoolers. These warm ups can also be used by kindergarten or primary grade students too. These activities can be used without any preparation. You can use a spinner or an open the box warm up. They are great to use at the beginning of the class to teach or review questions on all kinds of topics.

We have added 2 extra spaces as well: +2 for everyone, and +1 for everyone. These add a bit of excitement to the warm up. You can choose to use it with something like ClassDojo and add 2 points when someone lands on it. Or you can use it with something like a star or sticker system. I use it with both systems for different classes and my students love it. My star system is that once students get to 10 stars, they get a sticker so the +2 space adds two stars to everyone.
