13 Pattern Activities for Preschoolers: Games, Printables, and Play Ideas
Share
Patterns are everywhere—from the stripes on a shirt to the beat of a favorite song—and preschoolers will love discovering them! Learning about patterns helps young children build early math and logic skills, and the best way to explore them is through play. In this article, you’ll find a variety of hands-on learning ideas, printable activities, and free-to-play online games that make practicing patterns both fun and meaningful for young learners.
And if your child enjoys these activities, be sure to check out our shape activities for preschoolers, filled with even more creative ways to learn and play.

They can either circle the correct animal that goes in the missing space or cut it out and glue it into place.

Hands-On Pattern Activities
7. Block Patterns
What you need: Blocks in different colors or shapes
How to do it: Start with a simple arrangement (triangle–square–triangle or red-blue-red). Ask your child to build onto it. You can also challenge them to start a pattern for you to finish.
TIP: Don’t have colored blocks? No problem! Use playdough, pipe cleaners, yarn, or pieces of colored paper instead to create patterns of different shapes and colors.
8. Pattern Snack Kebobs
What you need: Two to three different types of snack foods (grapes, strawberries, tomatoes, cheese squares, cucumber slices) and wooden skewers
How to do it: If your child is starting to develop an understanding of patterns, invite them to create a kebob of their own choosing with the snacks you provide. For example, their pattern could be: cucumber slice-apple slice-cucumber slice-apple slice. If your child is just learning about patterns, create a kebob for them to recreate on their own.
TIP: The ends of kebob sticks can be sharp and pointy–supervise your child as they add food to the stick.
9. Finger Paint Patterns
What you need: Paper, paint, art smock or large old shirt
How to do it: Set out a few different colors of paint. You can either create a pattern for your child to duplicate or they can create their own. Kids can also create patterns in each row or use their entire sheet of paper to create one pattern.
TIP: It’s helpful to have hand wipes, soapy water, or a sink nearby for quick cleanup during this activity.
10. Toy Lineup Patterns
What you need: Two to three types of toys that your child has multiples of. For example, 4 blue cars, 4 red cars, and 4 yellow cars or 3 toy dogs and 3 toy cats.
How to do it: Have your child use their toys to create their very own patterns. Challenge your child to come up with as many different patterns as possible.
TIP: Get siblings and friends involved by having children take turns adding to the patterns or creating patterns for the other to copy.
11. Nature Pattern Hunt
What you need: A nearby forest, park, or your backyard
How to do it: Start by seeing patterns that naturally occur in nature, such as a patch of yellow flowers followed by a tree, then more yellow flowers, then a tree. You can also find objects from outside to create patterns with, such as pinecones, acorns, pebbles, and more.
TIP: This is a great activity to pair with a short hike or trip to the playground. While you’re outside, try our Nature Activities for Preschoolers.
12. Alphabet Patterns
What you need: Alphabet magnets, blocks, or beads with multiples of each letter
How to do it: Use the alphabet blocks to create a pattern for your child, pointing out the name of each letter as you go. Work with your child to create a new pattern or to duplicate one that you create.
TIP: As your child becomes more familiar with patterns, look for them in words, such as mama, banana, tutu, yo-yo, and more.
13. Sound Patterns
What you need: Nothing–just your hands or feet, but you can use pots and pans or any other item that makes a distinct sounds.
How to do it: Create a sound pattern by stomping, then clapping, then stomping, then clapping. As your child builds their familiarity with patterns, make them more complex or add in other sounds.
TIP: This one is fun to try with multiple kids, assigning each child a sound to make.

Sensory Play Ideas for Children
Sensory Bins
A sensory bin is just what it sounds like: a large bin with various items for kids to explore, especially through tactile play. It usually includes one or two major filler items, with smaller items mixed in and ways to interact. Here are a few ideas to try:
Ideas for a Water Table or Bin
Water of varying temperature, items that float or sink, and toys for measuring, pouring, spraying etc. Try a bin of cool water with plastic ice cubes, toy penguins and seals, and measuring cups, or warm water with a few drops of blue food coloring along with toy fish and squirt toys or plastic water droppers.
Ideas for a Sandbox or Bin
Play sand or kinetic sand, small toys and other items, and shovels, pails, spoons, or other digging tools. Add some water to change the texture and help kids mold the sand into shapes or towers.
Ideas for Nature Bin
Fill the bin with soil and small rocks, twigs, leaves, berries, pine cones, and/or acorns. Then bury toy animals and use hand-held shovels or rakes to search for them.
Ideas for an Explorer Bin
Fill a bin with soil or sand and bury toy dinosaurs or dinosaur bones or other artifacts or treasures, like plastic gems and coins. Provide spoons and shovels to help your child dig for buried treasures and specimens.
TIP: There are endless options for sensory bins, including alphabet sensory bins, bins with trucks and diggers, figurines buries in “clouds” (cotton balls), and so much more.
Outdoor Sensory Activities
The great outdoors is absolutely full of stimulation for the senses—try to spend time outside with your child whenever you can. Dance in the rain and splash in puddles, put on some sunscreen and enjoy the warmth of the rays on your skin, crunch through the spicy-smelling fall leaves, or dig and play in the winter snow. Here are some other fun ways to explore the outdoors through sensory play:
Nature Walk
Head to your favorite wild place and take a stroll, stopping from time to time to identify what you can see, hear, smell, and feel. This is also a good chance for kids to balance along logs, hop over obstacles, and climb rocks or trees.
Mud Pies
Embrace the squish of cool mud! Whether you play in a local creek or mix up a bin of dirt and water at home, mud offers unusual tactile sensations. Some kids love it, some kids hate it, but experiencing it is important for brain growth and development.
Kiddie Pool
This beloved summertime activity is all about the senses! Feel the water, hear it splash, watch the drops make rainbows in the sun—and that’s before you even bring water toys or cups and pails into the mix. Add taste and smell into the mix by enjoying a popsicle as you loaf around in the water. (Always supervise children around water of any depth.)
Bubbles
Looking for a calming sensory activity? Blow bubbles together; the deep inhales and measured exhales are a form of meditative breathing, and watching the bubbles float away is oh-so-relaxing. Want to make things more exciting? Turn on a bubble machine and some music, and dance around as you feel the bubbles breaking on your skin!
TIP: Find even more outdoor sensory activities with our article featuring 50+ Nature Activities for Preschoolers and our list of outdoor spring activities for kids.
Sensory Art Activities
When it comes down to it, every artistic activity is about the senses. Kid-friendly arts and crafts projects let them experience colors, patterns, textures, scents, and more. Try out these simple art ideas that engage the senses:
Scented Playdough
You can buy scented dough, or make your own by adding a few drops of essential oils. (Just make sure your kids know that even though it smells good, they shouldn’t eat it.)
Texture Collage
Gather items of different textures and arrange them in a collage. Include things like sandpaper, faux fur, burlap, yarn, crumpled paper, and more. Hang your collage at child height so they can return to experience it again and again.
Finger Painting
Here’s another classic childhood activity that’s all about the senses. Encourage your child to consider how the paints feel on their skin, wet and dry. Smell them and listen to the sounds they make when you glop them onto the paper or spread them around.
Snack Art
It’s okay to play with your food sometimes! Sort fruit by color or shape or arrange crackers and cheese to form patterns. Fill a plate with as many colors as you can, and eat slowly to enjoy the textures, scents, and flavors.
TIP: Need another sensory art activity? Try ice painting! Freeze colored ice cubes and use them to paint on paper as they melt. Learn more about ice painting here. Our Alphabet Crafts also feature many sensory-focused activities.
Quiet, Mess-Free Sensory Play Activities
Yes, it IS possible to encourage sensory play without making a mess or a racket! These ideas give parents a break, and are easier on children with sensory processing differences too.
Scent Bottles
Add a few drops of essential oils to cotton balls, then place them in empty shaker bottles. Kids remove the lids and smell what’s inside, trying to identify the fragrance. You can also let them explore the various scents in your spice collection by sniffing the lids.
Sealed Bag Squish
Fill a plastic zipper bag half-full with slime, finger paints, water beads, buttons, or any other substance that can be squished or moved around through the plastic. Seal it and add a layer of clear packing tape around the edges for strength. Your child can squeeze and squish the bag, or lay it flat and trace shapes, letters, or numbers.
Textured Book
Collect fabric in a variety of textures and sew them together to create a book. You can also buy books purposely made for sensory play, with crinkly pages, tabs to chew on, and fabrics to touch.
Light Table or Shadow Tracing
A light table is simply a flat lighted surface (you can make your own by placing a string of lights under an overturned shallow plastic bin). Laying various items on top allows kids to play with color, shadow, and the way light interacts with opaque, translucent, and clear objects. You can also have kids set up toys a piece of paper and trace the shadows they create.
TIP: For even more sensory play and learning ideas, check out our free activities articles here!
Tips for Sensory Play
1. Start Simple
You don’t need to invest in a lot of specialized toys or items. Just provide a variety of items, objects, and experiences that allow your child to use their senses. Use sponges and washcloths during bathtime, and compare the difference. Note the different sounds you hear when you eat different foods. Stand in a busy place and identify the smells and sights around you. Let kids balance their way along curbs and help push the shopping cart. All of these are sensory play!
2. Supervise and Guide
As adults, one important way we use our senses is to identify potential dangers and hazards around us—a red surface is often hot, poison ivy will make us itch, sharp things cause pain, etc. Supervise gently as kids learn from sensory experiences, stepping in when safety is a concern—but try not to direct their play too much. The best sensory play is unstructured and child-led.
3. Create Safe Play Spaces
One great way to give your child autonomy in sensory play is by creating a safe environment where they can try things with confidence. That’s one reason sensory bins are so popular: the items included are those that are unlikely to cause harm. Add mats to playroom floors to protect against tumbles, do messy activities on washable surfaces, and teach your child common-sense safety rules.
4. Engage Multiple Senses
If you’re planning specific sensory activities, try to find ways to include multiple senses. For example, if you’re playing with playdough, try adding essential oils for scent, mix-ins like sand or small pebbles for texture, and a variety of colors too.
5. Encourage Descriptive Language
As you and your child play, use descriptive words and invite them to do so too. “Ooh, this feels slimy and cold, but I think I like it! What do you feel when you touch it?” or “This sauce is salty, but it’s also a little sweet. What do you taste?”
6. Include Movement
Sensory play should include opportunities for vestibular (balance, movement, and spatial orientation) and proprioceptive (the body’s sense of movement and position) development too. Jumping, spinning, hopping on one foot, and balancing on a small box are sensory play; so is learning to ride a bike or scooter, swimming, and playing catch.
7. Respect Sensitivities and Preferences
Some children are naturally more sensitive or may have sensory processing disorders. But all of us have certain sensory experiences we just don’t like—maybe you just can’t stand touching slimy things, or the sound of chewing drives you nuts. Respect your child’s preferences, and support exploration without pressure. Encouragement is good; forcing unfamiliar sensations can backfire, especially with sensory-sensitive kids.
8. Rotate Materials Regularly
We can become accustomed to sensory experiences very quickly—think about how you’re able to tune out the sound of the neighbor’s lawn mower or don’t even notice the beautiful flowers in a garden you pass through eight times a day. When you regularly offer new experiences and materials, your child will continue to experience the new stimuli that encourage proper brain development.
9. Work Clean-Up Into the Routine
Sensory play can be messy! And while that’s just fine, it also means there’s clean-up to do afterwards. Make sure your child gets into the habit of helping out with the mess. Even very little kids are able to wipe things with a cloth or put playdough back into its containers. Keep kids involved in sensory play from start to finish for the most meaningful experiences.
10. Combine Sensory Play with Mindfulness
When we feel overwhelmed, that’s often because our senses are overloaded in one way or another. Sensory play can actually promote emotional regulation by helping us identify how we’re feeling, and why we’re feeling that way. Try the five senses meditation: Stop where you are and look for 5 things you can see, 4 distinct sounds, 3 things you can feel (like the breeze on your skin or the floor under your feet), 2 things you can smell, and 1 you can taste (even if it’s just your own saliva).
Sensory Play Tips for Children With Sensory Processing Differences
There are a variety of ways that people process sensory experiences differently. Some children may be easily overstimulated by noise, touch, or movement, while others may seek intense sensory input in ways that don’t fit the setting, such as constant spinning or chewing on non-food items.
When it comes to sensory play for all types of children, the key is to be flexible and responsive. Remember, a child’s sensory needs can change from day to day—what’s comfortable one time may feel overwhelming the next. These tips may help, but it’s also recommended to consult a professional in the field:
- Go slowly at first. Limit the sensory play to one or two new experiences, introducing them gradually. For example, with new textures, let children touch them first with a stick or a gloved finger before using their bare hand.
- Offer control and choice. “Would you like to taste the spice, or do you just want to smell it for now?” Respect their refusals, and demonstrate the behavior yourself instead. “You don’t want to touch the worm? How about I touch it and tell you how it feels? It feels a little slimy, but also smooth, and it wriggles!” If child declines something, remember that opting out isn’t necessarily a setback—it could be them learning to recognize and communicate their needs.
- Note and limit challenging sensory experiences. Some kids have no trouble sticking their hands into a bucket of slime, but hate loud noises. Others love fireworks, but don’t like to be touched. Ask your child to describe how various forms of sensory play make them feel, and don’t force them into experiences that could cause them to feel overwhelmed.
- Explain what to expect. “We’re going to use this new playdough. It has some sand mixed in, so it will feel a little rough, and it smells like cinnamon, just like your favorite cookies.” This gives kids a chance to prepare and opt out if they need to.
- Don’t judge. No one can know exactly how a sensory experience affects someone else. If your child tells you the music is too loud or the colors are too bright, respect their feelings and thank them for sharing. If you can’t alter the situation itself, ask your child what might make it easier for them. “It is pretty loud in here—thanks for telling me that it makes your ears hurt. Do you want to put your hands over your ears until it’s over?”

What Is Sensory Play? Definition and Examples for Kids
Sensory play is any activity that engages a child’s senses to support learning and development. This includes sight, sound, taste, touch, and smell, as well as the “hidden” senses of general body awareness and balance.
Characteristics of Sensory Play
- Interactive and hands-on
- Exploratory and immersive
- Creative and engaging
- Sometimes loud or messy
Sensory play starts almost as soon as a child is born born, as infants watch, touch, and listen to all the new stimuli around them. The first of the six stages of play, unoccupied play, is full of unstructured sensory play and exploration. It’s why babies seem to put just about everything in their mouth and grab anything new they see. Every sensory experience is new to them, and they use everything at their disposal to learn more about it.
As children get older, sensory play can become more structured, through activities specifically designed to stimulate the five senses, as well as build general body awareness. Parents and teachers can help by providing sensory activities and games throughout childhood, offering kids the chance to explore using their senses as often as possible.
Research Behind Multisensory Learning
The multi-sensory theory suggests that engaging several senses at once—like sight, hearing, and touch—can make learning more effective and memorable. For example, this 2022 study determined that a “multisensory approach helps students link new information to prior knowledge and understand relationships between concepts.”
Additionally, research published in Frontiers in Education highlights that a “multi-sensory approach to processing not only enriches our comprehension of the received information but also ensures that learning is more robust and durable.”
Benefits of Sensory Play for Learning and Child Development
Sensory play helps the brain develop neural connections, building the foundations for learning and self-regulation. According to a report from Harvard University’s Center on the Developing Child: “Appropriate sensory input (e.g.,through hearing and vision) … build[s] healthy brain architecture that provides a strong foundation for lifelong learning, behavior, and health.”
A wide range of sensory experiences supports development of important skills and abilities like these:
Gross and Fine Motor Skills
In a 2024 study published in Brain and Behavior, scientists noted, “Motor and sensory developments are intertwined during infancy and early childhood. Sensory feedback guides improving movements and coordination; sensory experiences provide essential input for motor skill acquisition.”
Their research shows that infants and babies who lack sensory experiences may face motor skills challenges and deficiencies as they get older. Babies track objects with their eyes, then begin to reach out and learn to grab, pinch, and manipulate. Sensory input spurs them on to learn and move, first crawling and then walking.
TIP: Providing children with sensory play opportunities right from the start encourages strong gross and fine motor skills as they grow.
Emotional Regulation
The link between emotions and sensory input is obvious to many of us: a few notes of a song can take us back to a school dance decades earlier; the smell of ginger and cloves instantly transports us back to our grandmother’s kitchen at the holidays. We not only experience the memories tied to those sensations—we also experience the emotions.
A 2023 report in Trends in Cognitive Science states, “Research indicates (i) the process of sensation is inherently emotional; (ii) sensation-driven emotion can be deliberately harnessed; and (iii) sensation relatively effortlessly activates emotional processes. Together, this work suggests that sensation constitutes a tool that people can use to deliberately manage their emotions.”
In other words, the way we perceive the world using our senses is directly tied to how we feel. What’s more, we can use our senses to help understand and, in turn, regulate our emotions. This is an incredibly challenging skill for most people to develop—it starts in early childhood and essentially continues throughout our entire lives.
TIP: Sensory play can be both stimulating and calming. Through this kind of play, kids learn how various types of sensory input affect their own emotions (it’s different for everyone) and can find ways to use their senses to manage difficult emotions and big feelings.
Language Development
Learning to talk is a complex process. It involves not only the ability to manipulate your mouth and tongue muscles to produce the appropriate sounds, but also an understanding of the meaning of words themselves. In their preschool years, children build their vocabulary at an astonishing rate. Studies show that by age one, children recognize about 50 words; by age three, they recognize about 1,000 words; and by age five, they recognize at least 10,000 words!
During sensory play, children encounter new experiences that require new words to describe them. It’s much easier to experience something that’s “squishy” than to try to define it.
TIP: Encourage your child to describe what they encounter using their senses to help build a stronger vocabulary as they grow.
Sensory Processing
In recent years, medical science has started to recognize and understand the major impact of sensory processing disorders (SPD). Some people are hypersensitive to sensory input and are easily overstimulated to the point of being unable to function. Others have difficulty making sense of sensory input, which can make daily life feel confusing and uncomfortable. SPD is often observed in individuals on the autism spectrum or those with ADHD and can also contribute to anxiety.
In sensory play, children with SPD can experience sensory input in a safe and controlled environment. Over time, they can develop tolerance for otherwise uncomfortable experiences or learn the adaptations they’ll need to thrive. Sensory play can also help kids learn to better understand what their senses are telling them, an important skill that doesn’t come naturally for all. It’s often used by occupational therapists to treat SPD.
Types of Sensory Play
There are five types of sensory play related directly to our five senses, plus two more that correlate with our body overall. Read through this overview of each type, then apply them with our list of 15+ Sensory Play Activities for Kids:
Tactile Play
Tactile play is all about touch and the way we experience the world through the sensory receptors in our skin and other parts of the body. This can include textures, temperature, pressure, and vibration.
Through tactile play, kids develop fine motor skills by grabbing, pinching, and otherwise manipulating materials. They also pick up new vocabulary to describe what they’re experiencing: soft, rough, squishy, sticky, etc. Tactile play helps develop emotional regulation, as many calming and soothing behaviors are tactile, such as stroking soft fur or receiving a hug.
Examples of Tactile Play:
- Running fingers through sand, rice, or beans
- Splashing in warm or cold water
- Squishing and building with playdough
Visual Play
Visual sensory play uses the eyes, or child’s sense of sight. In visual play activities, children explore colors and patterns, shapes, visual tracking and focus, and spatial awareness. Visual play can help strengthening how children process and respond to what they see, which supports their ability to read, write, solve problems, and more.
Examples of Visual Play:
- Watching mobiles, ceiling fans, bubbles, or pinwheels
- Sorting objects by size, shape, or color
- Solving “hidden picture” puzzles
Auditory Play
Auditory play explores the sense of hearing using our ears. It’s a vital form of play for speech and language development—the ability to discern various sounds allows children to begin imitating them. Auditory play also helps kids learn to read, develop a sense of volume, pitch, and rhythm, and become active listeners.
Examples of Visual Play:
- Making noise by banging objects together
- Singing along or playing instruments while listening to music
- Listening to and identifying nature sounds
Olfactory Play
In olfactory play, kids use their nose and sense of smell. Research shows that smells and memory have a strong link, so strengthening our olfactory sense may also improve our memories.
Smell and taste are closely related as well, and our noses can help us know when something might not be safe (for example, the bad smell of rotting food tells us we shouldn’t eat it). Some fragrances can also have a soothing effect, improving emotional regulation.
Examples of Olfactory Play:
- Using scented markers or playdough
- Smelling the flowers and plants in a garden
- Playing “guess-the-scent” games
Gustatory Play
In gustatory play (also called taste exploration), kids explore various tastes using the receptors on their tongue. They learn to recognize flavors like sweet, sour, salty, bitter, and umami (savory or meaty).
Young children who experience a wide variety of flavors through diverse foods are less likely to become picky eaters as they get older. Gustatory play helps support oral motor development too, strengthening the muscles used for chewing and swallowing.
Note: In this type of play, it’s especially important to supervise children to ensure they are only putting safe items into their mouths.
Examples of Gustatory Play:
- Taste-testing games
- Trying new foods
- Experiencing unique textures (i.e. the smooth but stretchy texture of mochi)
Vestibular and Proprioceptive Play
These two types of sensory play are often overlooked, but they’re incredibly important. Vestibular play refers to balance and movement. It’s what enables us to learn to walk, ride a bicycle, or walk up or down stairs without falling over. Proprioceptive play refers to body awareness–where our body is in relation to the space around us, how heavy or light something is to lift, or the pressure we feel from outside objects (i.e. the strength of a hug).
Examples of Olfactory Play:
- Climbing trees
- Pulling a wagon up a hill
- Walking along a narrow log

Sensory Play Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What is the purpose of sensory play?
Sensory play stimulates brain development, develops fine and gross motor skills, supports language development and communication skills, promotes emotional regulation, and encourages creativity and imagination. When children encounter new sensory experiences on a regular basis, they develop an awareness of their bodies as well as of the world around them.
What age is best for sensory play?
Sensory play is most important in early childhood (birth to age 6), but children of any age can benefit from it. It can be especially helpful for older children with neurological differences, like ADHD, autism, or sensory processing challenges.
How does sensory play help learning and development?
Research shows that sensory play has a direct effect on the development of the neural pathways in our brains. During the early childhood years, when our brains grow faster than at any other time in our lives, sensory experiences build and establish the cognitive pathways that enable us to learn, think critically, and communicate with others. It also promotes body and spatial awareness, balance, and hand-eye coordination.
What materials are best for sensory bins?
While you can use almost anything in sensory bins, be sure to choose those that are age-appropriate and safe. For very small children, watch for potential choking hazards since they tend to put everything in their mouths. Observe your child closely for any potential allergic reactions, and clean and sanitize materials regularly, especially if they’re used by multiple children. Common sensory bin items include uncooked rice and beans, popcorn kernels, sand, soil, flour, water beads, water and ice, rocks and pebbles, pompoms, fabrics and paper, scented items, and small toys and tools.
Can I do sensory play with children who have sensory sensitivities?
Yes, sensory play can help them develop a stronger tolerance for uncomfortable sensory experiences and learn to manage their emotional responses to sensory input. The key is to be flexible and responsive, limiting stimuli and respecting the child’s preferences and perceptions. If you have concerns, talk with your child’s pediatrician or health care expert.
Is sensory play appropriate for older children?
Yes. As kids get older, sensory play is especially helpful for both language development and emotional regulation. Using their senses helps kids develop a wider vocabulary as they look for words to describe their experiences. Plus, understanding how different sensory activities make them feel allows kids to narrow down the ones that cause them stress or provide a sense of calm. Sensory play also makes older children more observant of the world around them, expanding their horizons and increasing their tolerance for a variety of different ways to live.

Learning Path(s)
ABCmouse 2- Separate Math and Reading Learning Paths: The single Learning Path offered in our original ABCmouse program has been split into separate paths for two reasons. One: It allows children to focus on one area at a time, whether that’s because they love to read most or because they need to work on math skills more frequently. Two: It allows parents and caregivers to set each Learning Path at a different grade level if that’s more personalized for their child. Many children are more proficient with either math or reading skills and this lets them work on activities that are “just right” for each skill.
ABCmouse – One Learning Path: For some children, who have equal skills in math and reading and no favorite subject, having a mix of subject types on the Learning Path offers greater variety and engagement. If children do want to focus only on math or reading during any gameplay session they can do so outside of the Learning Path.
Number of Activities
ABCmouse 2 – 5,000+ Learning Activities, and Growing: Already, the new ABCmouse 2 app offers a comprehensive early learning curriculum featuring more than 5,000 activities, with more added all the time. In the ABCmouse Classroom section, you’ll see the exact number of activities available for each subject and game type. ABCmouse 2 activities encompass Reading, Math, Social Studies, Arts and Colors, and Music.
ABCmouse – 10,000+ Learning Activities: Right now, ABCmouse does have more learning activities than the ABCmouse 2 app, but the activities on ABCmouse 2 are all-new and optimized for the app, and new activities are being added to the ABCmouse 2 app rather than the original ABCmouse app. There’s more than enough in each app to satisfy an eager learner for a long long time. ABCmouse activities encompass Reading, Math, Social Studies, Arts and Colors, and Music.
