Spring activities for kindergarten are one of the best ways to keep learning fun, engaging, and hands-on during the busy spring months.
The weather is changing, kids are full of energy, and your schedule is packed with testing, field trips, and end-of-year routines.
If you’re anything like me, you don’t want to spend hours planning brand new activities every week – you just want simple, engaging ideas that actually work.
In this post, I’m sharing my favorite spring activities for kindergarten that are:
✔ Low prep
✔ Hands-on
✔ Easy to reuse
✔ Perfect for March, April, and May
And if you want everything planned for you, I’ll also show you how to grab a free Spring Mini Pack at the end.
🌸 Spring Math Activities for Kindergarten
Spring is the perfect time to bring math to life with simple, hands-on activities.
Instead of relying on worksheets, try interactive centers that allow students to move, touch, and explore.
Here are a few spring math activities for kindergarten that work really well in centers:
🐰 Bunny Number Matching
Students match numbers to quantities using themed cards. This works perfectly in a sensory bin with rice, grass filler, or small manipulatives.
🥚 Egg Missing Numbers
A simple but powerful activity where students fill in missing numbers in a sequence. This is great for building number sense and confidence.
🌸 Spring Counting Math Mats
Students count objects and place them on mats (flowers, bugs, or themed items). You can use:
- pom poms
- mini erasers
- counting bears
These types of activities help students practice:
- Number recognition
- One-to-one correspondence
- Counting fluency
- Number sequencing
And the best part? They’re all low prep and easy to rotate throughout March, April, and May.

Save time by keeping your center routines the same—just swap in spring content.
For example:
