Welcome to Kindergarten Bags and Activities

When you register your child for kindergarten, the school principal will arrange for your child to receive a welcome to kindergarten gift bag, which includes a variety of resources to help get your child ready for school, including scissors, Playdough and more! The Learning Partnership is a great place to find activities that use these resources to prepare children for starting school in September. This Early Learning Activity Book is also another valuable resource.

Getting Ready to Learn

In Kindergarten we learn through play. Inquiry is at the heart of our learning, and kindergarten classrooms are designed to encourage curiosity and wonder. This is called experiential learning. Below are a few questions you can ask your child when doing chores, while playing outside or at the dinner table to encourage your child to develop their curiosity and articulate their learning:

Tell me about what you built, made, created...
Tell me about what you saw...

How would we/you find that out?
How did you...?
How would that...?
How did you feel when you finished it?
How do you explain it?
Why do you think...?
What do you notice about...?
What do you think?
What would happen if...?
What did you see happening?
What do you predict will happen?
What can we do to make it work?

This document, Kindergarten and Experiential Learning, is a resource for parents to learn more about experiential learning and ways caregivers can encourage this engagement at home.
