Letter D

We started by making a mommy and baby dinosaur (or dragon...not sure what they look like) with our big D and little d.




She then painted rocks to make dinosaur eggs.


Then we played!



Letter C

We made our big C into a chocolate chip cookie...


And our little c into a cupcake.


We then mixed equal parts of glue and shaving cream (with a drop of food coloring) to make the puffy frosting of our giant cupcake.  We added a few shakes of glitter for sprinkles.



When it dried we played a game of count the candles.  Say or write a number and have the child add the correct number of candles.


So cute!

Letter B

For letter B we made bugs.

Big B was a bumblebee.



Little b was a butterfly.



Pretty cute!


For our extra activity E cut out a trail of ants (that had numbers on them) and lined them up in the correct order.

Letter A

We have been so busy lately it is hard to put together an entire 'theme' so I decided we'll just review the alphabet for now.  I'm trying to find a few ways to make it fun.  I cut out each letter (uppercase and lowercase) with my Cricut and will have her decorate each letter.  We may do an additional activity that goes along with that letter sound.  We'll see how this goes.

She decorated her big A with pictures of animals she colored.


She then decorated her little a with animal stickers.


Not too shabby.


I cut out tree parts using some craft foam sheets.  I have a bunch of foam shape stickers and fished out some red 'apples' to put on her tree.  She put together the apple tree and added the apples.



She also put play-doh apples on her play-doh mats.
