FREE Bat & Spider Printables (Tot–1st) — 3 Dinosaurs

October doesn’t have to mean a cart full of themed workbooks—just a printer and a pack you can actually use with mixed ages. 3 Dinosaurs offers free bat & spider printables for tot through first grade: a 70-page learning pack (split into three download parts) plus a 36-page tot pack for the littlest learners. Halloween-lite and science-friendly—use them for spider/bat week, morning basket, or quiet October afternoons without buying a seasonal stack you’ll finish in three days.

What’s included

Per 3 Dinosaurs’ Bat & Spider Pack hub and Free Bat & Spider Pack post (verified at draft time):

Main Bat & Spider Pack — 70 pages (download in three parts from the hub):

  • Part 1 highlights: 3-part cards, what comes next, prewriting, pattern cards, matching cards, size sequencing, sorting by size, writing pages, trace & color, cutting practice, bats & spider sorting, 4-part / 10-part puzzles, math clip cards, coloring even & odd
  • Part 2 highlights: beginning sounds, wall/pocket-chart cards, tracing & writing words, mixed-up word matching, color the same, bat color-by-size (+ questions), count & color spider, bat math (addition, subtraction, greater than/less than, counting), dot the B & S, math matching, roll & count (+ questions), label beginning sound, math word problems, bat writing / spider fix-the-sentence, B & S letter tracing, spider web shape tracing
  • Part 3 highlights: color the pattern, fill-in-the-pattern, letter tiles (spider & bats), roll & cover, help spider make some words (CVC-style)

Bat & Spider Tot Pack — 36 pages (separate hub download for younger learners):

  • Solid- and dashed-line prewriting, cutting practice, which one is different
  • 2-part puzzles, color-the-spider book, match cards, 9-piece puzzle, single-page matching
  • Roll & count (dice + 1–5), shape tracing, dot the letter (S, W, B, & M), lacing cards

Age band (publisher): tot (ages 2–3), preschool (3–4), PreK (4–5), kindergarten (5–6), and first grade (6–7). Mix of hands-on and no-prep pages—print only what fits this week.

Nice pairing (optional): 3 Dinosaurs notes the pack works well with National Geographic Readers: Spiders and National Geographic Readers: Bats—use if you already own them; not required to enjoy the printables.

Who it’s for

Best for mixed-age tables—tots lace and match while preschoolers cut and pattern, and K–1 kids tackle beginning sounds, simple math, and short writing. Ideal for frugal October mornings that want bats and spiders as a gentle theme (not a full spooky curriculum buy).

How to use it this October

  1. Sibling split: Tot pack for ages ~2–4; pull Part 1 puzzles/matching for PreK; save Part 2–3 literacy/math for K–1.
  2. Morning basket slice: One pattern card set, roll & count, or beginning-sound strip a day—keep cut cards in a zipper pouch.
  3. Science week: Pair vocab/3-part cards with a library bat or spider nonfiction book (publisher suggests Nat Geo Readers if you have them).
  4. Fine-motor station: Cutting practice, lacing cards, and spider-web shape tracing in a sheet protector with dry-erase markers.
  5. Laminate once: Matching cards, size sorts, and puzzles last all October (and next fall) without reprinting.

What you’ll need

  • Printer + paper (cardstock helps for cards, puzzles, and lacing)
  • Scissors, crayons/markers, optional laminator, sheet protectors, dry-erase markers
  • Optional extras the publisher lists: dot markers, clothespins (clip cards), clear gems/counters, mini bat/spider erasers, hole punch + yarn for lacing
  • No paid Halloween curriculum required—grab files from the hub and print what you’ll use
