Weather Words Practice Activities
Printable weather words activities for Nursery, LKG and UKG children to recognise, say, match and use simple weather vocabulary.
Practice that builds confidence
Building weather vocabulary
These Weather Words practice activities help Nursery, LKG and UKG children build early science vocabulary for common weather conditions such as sunny, rainy, cloudy, windy, hot and cold. Children practise looking closely at pictures, saying the word aloud, and connecting the word to what they see outside.
The printable worksheets include simple picture-word tasks, matching, colouring, circling, tracing and naming activities. They are designed for young learners who are beginning to observe weather, talk about seasons, and use everyday words in short oral answers.
Weather words are often among a child’s first science words because they come from daily experience. These worksheets support children as they notice the sky, rain, wind, heat and cold, then connect those observations to simple labels. At this stage, the main goal is recognition and use of words, not detailed weather science.
How the practice progresses
Activities begin with clear pictures of familiar weather. Children may match a sun picture to “sunny”, identify rain from a cloud, or choose the correct weather word from two options. Later pages can include tracing or copying the word, sorting pictures, and completing simple prompts such as “It is ____ today.” This progression supports both vocabulary and early reading readiness.
A simple routine for parents
Before starting a worksheet, look out of a window or step outside for a minute. Ask, “What is the weather today?” and offer two choices if needed: “Is it sunny or cloudy?” Then complete one page together. Encourage your child to point, say the word, and describe one thing they notice, such as “The trees are moving” for windy weather.
Classroom uses for teachers
Teachers can use these pages during science, circle time, EVS readiness, or theme-based learning on weather and seasons. A worksheet can follow a weather chart discussion, a rhymes session, or a picture talk. The pages also work well in small groups, early finishers’ folders, and vocabulary corners where children match weather flashcards to worksheet pictures.
Common errors to watch for
Young children may confuse cloudy and rainy because both show clouds, or hot and sunny because they often happen together. Windy can be difficult because wind is invisible, so use clues like flying leaves, bent trees or moving clothes. Avoid correcting only the written answer; ask the child to explain the picture so you can hear the word connection.

Helpful answers
Frequently asked questions
What weather words do these worksheets practise?
They focus on simple, everyday weather words young children can observe, such as sunny, rainy, cloudy, windy, hot and cold.
Are these activities suitable for Nursery children who cannot read yet?
Yes. Many tasks use pictures, pointing, matching, circling and colouring, so children can build vocabulary through recognition and speaking before independent reading.
How can I explain the word windy to a young child?
Use visible clues because wind cannot be seen directly. Point to moving leaves, swaying trees, flying paper or clothes drying on a line, then say, “The wind is moving them.”
Can these worksheets be used with a daily weather chart?
Yes. First ask children to observe today’s weather on the chart, then use a worksheet to match or name the same type of weather.
What should I do if my child mixes up cloudy and rainy?
Show that cloudy means clouds in the sky, while rainy includes water falling from clouds. Ask the child to look for raindrops in the picture before choosing the word.
