Remembrance Day Continuous Provision Bundle | EYFS Poppy Activities

Create a meaningful Remembrance Day learning experience in your EYFS classroom with this collection of four poppy-themed printable resources. Designed for nursery and Reception, this bundle combines practical maths, fine motor activities, loose parts play, creative expression and opportunities for discussion.

From hands-on counting activities to a thoughtful Remembrance Day reflection corner, these resources offer a variety of ways to enrich your November continuous provision.

WHAT’S INCLUDED?

1. Poppy Loose Parts Mats

Invite children to explore the poppy designs using red buttons, pom-poms, beads, sequins and other loose parts. Children can place materials onto the poppy designs while developing fine motor control, hand-eye coordination and concentration.

1. Poppy Stacks – Number Recognition and Counting

These poppy-themed number activities encourage children to recognise numerals and build towers using red multilink cubes. Children can count out the correct number of cubes to match each numeral, developing counting skills, one-to-one correspondence and an understanding of quantity.

1. Poppy Counting Cards 1–20

Featuring 20 illustrated poppy cards numbered 1–20, this resource provides another hands-on way to practise early maths. Cut out and laminate the individual poppies, then invite children to use buttons, pom-poms or other loose parts to represent each number.

1. Remembrance Day Picture Prompts

These circular log-slice picture prompts feature photographs linked to poppies, remembrance, memorials and the Armed Forces. Use them to create a thoughtful classroom reflection and drawing corner where children can observe images, ask questions, share ideas and draw their own poppies.
