Weather Activity Kit
Our Weather Activity Kit has all you need to get creative and learn! It is a perfect starter for STEM activities where you can talk about how clouds make rain, what colours are the in the rainbow and how the sun can even make electricity!
Our kit includes four fun activities to explore all the different types of weather we have, usually all in one day in the Great British Summer! It's the perfect way to keep little hands busy, and little minds engaged. Make learning fun with and guarantee some sunshine this summer.
Each craft kit includes everything you need, for 1 or 2 Mini Makers to make —
* Rain Cloud - We get plenty of summer showers in the UK so let’s turn them into something fun! In this activity your Mini Maker can make a cloud with raindrops hanging from it, displaying your little one's name.
* Rainbow - Bring a bit of colour to your life and practice making patterns while making a rainbow using wool and coloured beads. This is great to support early numeracy.
* Weather Cards - Learn all about the different type of weather and come rain or shine you’ll have something to play with.
* Weather Sensory Tray - Let their imagination grow as they play with all the different types of weather and create their own thunder and lightening. They can develop their hand strength and fine motor skills using tweezers to sort the items into our weather cups.
All our activities are specially designed to support the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) framework, including fine motor skills, creating with materials, and being imaginative and expressive.
We take the overwhelm away so you don’t have to think of ideas to keep your little one busy. Every activity kit for children comes fully prepared and straight to your door so you can get making straight away.

Mini Makers Like Learning
Our kits are developed by an early years practitioner with over 20 years of experience in line with the EYFS Framework. This means the activities are thoughtfully put together to encourage confident, able children who will thrive in their nursery or school; making them open to learning and new tasks, problem solving, and imaginative play.
Mini Makers are Bright
Crafting activates all of your child’s senses, which are essential to help them understand the world they are growing up in. New pathways are formed in their brain each time your child tries an activity.
Mini Makers are Strong
Making stuff is amazing for their gross and fine motor skills. Little muscles become stronger the more they practice. It also helps develop their coordination and with using opposite sides of their brain, for example when they hold something with one hand and use scissors with the other.
Mini Makers are Happy
Creative and sensory activities are great tools for calming anxious or frustrated little ones. Making also creates a safe space for expression and open conversation.
