Hi!
Are you looking for some relevant academic activities to do at home with your Pre-K or Kindergarten aged child? Well I've put together a few of my favorites. I hope that you will find them to be useful!

Sorting by Attribute: Practice sorting by 1 or more attributes such as color, shape, and size.
Reading Comprehension: Don't just stop at reading the story! Follow up with questions; have your child practice re-telling the story; change the endings; or have them draw a picture to show their favorite part!
Name Activities: Still learning how to read and write their name? Try making simple name puzzles or scrambling the letters then placing them in the correct order!
Tracing: Does your child already know their name when they see it? Can they put the letters in order? Well now it's time to Trace! Use a highlighter to write your child's name and let them trace it! Don't stop at tracing their name; trace letters, sight words, and numbers!
Counting & Number Recognition: Pick a number, any number and count out that many! Make it interesting by having your child count out their favorite toys or treats! Check for number recognition by reversing it! Place a given number of items in front of your child to count and have them select or write the matching number!

Well that's all that I have for today. I hope that you found this to be useful. For more information about how to create and implement these activities; click on the video link below:
