Lifecycle Circle Book: Cut and Paste Fun!

This worksheet gives children ages 3-5 more practice assembling a rotating lifecycle circle book, reinforcing the skills of sequencing, cutting, and gluing built in earlier lifecycle activities. Repeating this hands-on format with new content helps the process itself — cut, sequence, glue, review — become a familiar and confident routine.

Pen Control, starring your child

A pre-writing pack made for one child: their animal travels along roads, lines, waves, loops and spirals to things it loves, then round shapes and along cutting lines, all the way to their own name. Ages 2 to 5, and new paths whenever you like.

How to use this worksheet

Look at the pictures together and talk through what each stage shows before cutting begins. Have your child cut out the circles, encouraging steady, careful scissor control. Guide them to glue the circles together in the correct order to form the rotating book, checking the sequence as they go. Once complete, let your child spin the book and narrate the life cycle story from start to finish.
