What Is a Weather Chart for Kids?

A weather chart for children is a fun learning tool. It helps kids to learn about different weather conditions such as sun, rain, storm, wind, etc.

They are often used in classroom settings combined with children’s calendars.

Benefits Of Weather Charts For Kids

There are many different benefits of weather charts for your kids.

In order to work with a weather chart children need to develop observation skills. Your child will have to record what they notice and share their research with others.

For this process, they will need a lot of new vocabulary they might not be familiar with yet. This fun weather chart activity will help them develop new vocabulary skills.

Also is a weather chart a great way to learn about different weather conditions on our planet? It will help children to be prepared for the weather outside and help them to dress accordingly.

  • Is it hot or cold outside?
  • How does the weather today make you feel?
  • Which weather card reflects today’s weather?
  • Do you remember what weather we had yesterday? How was it different than today’s weather?
  • How many sunny/rainy days did we have?

This is so much fun!

Use your weather tracking chart and play pretend.

Imagine you are on an adventure and suddenly it starts to rain. Crap a raincoat and umbrella not to get wet. When the sun comes out again, take some clothes off and get ready to swim in a big lake.

What can you do when it is snowing and cold outside? let your imagination run wild and enjoy pretend playtime with your children.
