About these pre-k science worksheets

These Pre-K science worksheets turn a three-to-five-year-old's questions into small investigations: which sense tells you a bell is ringing, whether a cat and a rock are alive, which things float, what the weather is doing today and how a seed becomes a flower.

Pre-K science is about noticing and talking, not memorising. Each sheet is built around one thing a child can see, touch or try at home, so the page leads to a real experiment rather than ending when the pencil stops.

How to get the most out of them

  1. 1

    Do "Sink or Float?" next to a bowl of water. Let your child guess first, then test each object — the surprise is where the learning happens.

  2. 2

    Take "My Five Senses" outside. Ask what they can hear, smell and see right now before you start the page.

  3. 3

    Plant a bean in a clear cup after "How a Plant Grows" so the order on the page happens in front of them over two weeks.

Pre-K Science Worksheets — questions parents ask

What science should a Pre-K child learn?
Observing with the senses, noticing living things, simple cause and effect such as sink or float, weather and seasons, and how plants and animals grow. These sheets cover each of those at a Pre-K level.
Do these need any equipment?
No. They print on plain paper. A bowl of water, a few household objects and a seed make the activities richer, but the sheets work on their own.
