Now I Know My ABCs ~ Letter A

abcI am excited to share a new set of ABC activities with you this year, all based around animals!  I have created a set of free printables that will be shared one by one every other week throughout this year.

Each printable set will include a large upper case letter to print, a cut and glue craft, flashcards, and a set of fun extras in case your tot is like mine and can’t get enough!  I will also recommend books to go along if you want to expand the on the animal for the letter.  This is a fun and easy way to bring tons of science fun in for your tot too!

This series was designed for my daughter who will be 3 in April.  A younger or older child could easily enjoy these too! 

We personally are not moving through the letters on any specific schedule.  I will be moving on when she gets bored with a certain letter and introduce a new one.  She knows her letters so this set is more for the animal fun and the extra practice on basic skills. You can see more details in my upcoming weekly Tot School posts where I will share more about her in action.

She loves the notebook format, similar to her Tot Time Notebook, so I am putting her “extras” in a notebook for her.

We did the craft all together, her cutting the gray lines with my help, then using watercolors to paint her letter A while I trimmed out the rest of the alligators.

We let it dry {then I cut out the A} and later glued down the alligators on the letter and the letter onto paper. IMG_9531

She absolutely loved the end result and just wanted to hold it and stare at it!IMG_9535

Now I Know My ABC’s ~ Oo is for Owl

Goodnightowl
Summary: Tired owl keeps getting woken up from his sleep by other animals. Will he ever get some rest? A cute cumulative story for young ones with a funny ending.
Letter Activities:
letterosensorytub
One of the first items I thought of when thinking about the Letter O was Cheerios! I poured about a half of box (use coupons to purchase and it is really cheap) into a plastic tub for some sensory box fun. I put various letter O’s, some old O puzzle pieces, spoons, and bowls.
letterosensorytub2
My tot spent quite a bit of time playing with this tub. You can see how hard she is concentrating on the pouring Cheerios into the bowl. She also ate quite a few too! :)
leapfrogO
We also pulled out our Leap Frog Fridge Phonics. My tot hadn’t played with it in a very long time so it was also a perfect way to review some of our past letters.
Oohandwritingweb
For our owl poem/handwriting page, I had my daughter finger-trace the letters. Then she traced some of them with a crayon.
Crafts:
owlcoloring2
Next my tot and preschooler spent some time coloring an owl. While coloring we talked about what happened in the book.

Then the girls used some of the Cheerios from the sensory box and glued them onto the letter O.


Earlier this year, Jodi wrote about what her kids did for their unit on Owl Babies. They made these cool crafts (pictured above) which were on my list to do. She also as some other owl resources listed too.

And here’s another cute owl letter activity: Owl alphabet craft
nocturnalanimalsheet
Since our book was about owls, we were able to talk about nocturnal and diurnal animals again.
