This resource includes at least 1 activity (some include more than one) to practice all of the following skills:
Tracing: Learners will use a dry erase marker to trace lines on cards to practice fine motor skills. 
Matching: Learners will match the small cards to the larger cards or mat to practice matching pictures.
Letter Identification: Learners will match the uppercase letters to other uppercase letters, lowercase letters to other lowercase letters, or uppercase letters to lowercase letters depending on skill level. 
Letter Sound Identification: Learners will match letters and pictures based on their beginning sound to letter strips.
Number Identification: Learners will match number cards to a number mat, numbers to the same number word, or numbers to pictures showing the same number depending on skill level. They can also pick a number card and cover the matching number on a game board.
Counting: Learners will count the amount of pictures on the card and place it on the matching picture or number on a mat. They can also place the picture cards on the strip and then build the number with playdough or mini erasers or other manipulatives.
Size: Learners will sort cards with pictures on them based on size (big or little).
Same/Different: Learners will sort cards and based on if the pictures are the same or different and then match them to the mat of your choice. 
Opposites: Learners will pair up picture cards that show opposites.
Colors: Learners will match pictures to the strips that show the same color. Learners will cover the pictures on the wheel that are the same color as the color word in the middle. Learners will place balls of playdough beneath each picture/word and then smash the dough ball under each picture/word as they say the color and name of the picture/word.
Words and Pictures: Learners will sort cards based on whether it shows a word or a picture. Learners will cover the small part of the card that shows if the larger picture on the card is a picture or a word.
Sequencing: Learners will arrange cards in the correct order to show the order that the events happen in.
Shapes: Learners will sort the shapes by matching small shape cards to the larger cards that show the same shape.
Emotions: Learners will choose cards and place them on the mat over the matching emotion word or picture.
Scavenger Hunt: Learners will look for summer objects in real life or in a book and then either mark the object off the page or match up the picture card of the object they found to the scavenger hunt page.
Vocabulary: Learners will practice recognizing summer-themed words by looking at simple words next to pictures.
Play Dough Mats: Learners will build the summer objects shown on each play dough mat using play dough, clay, mini erasers, or pipe cleaners.

Each skill comes with directions and suggestions for how to use it, as well as at least one (some more) recording sheets in case your little learner is ready to show their work on paper. Many toddlers will not be ready for this step, but it's provided in case your kiddo is ready to move toward this next skill.
