Summer is here and my little guy finished his first year of preschool! I wanted some fun activities too keep us entertained, but with some intellectual value. I decided that this summer we would go with letter themes. It is perfect to help my youngest who is learning to talk and my preschooler who is learning to read and write.
We of course kicked things off with A as the letter of the week.
We folded paper Airplanes and had an Airplane flying contest.
Then, we did a puzzle of America, being sure to point out Arizona, Alaska, Alabama, Arkansas and the Atlantic Ocean.
I had my four year old write all the letter of the week words in Apple Green crayon to practice his writing.
We pretended to be Apes and ate Applesauce for a snack.
Then, we read two books Antics and Dr. Suess’s ABC.
We had a whole other list of fun A things, but we will save them for the next time around.
What other fun A activities can you think of?

I love this! When I was a preschool teacher we used this same idea for our lessons and activities. Every week we would focus one one letter of the alphabet and one number. The kids adored it! They would get excited helping to plan fun ideas. Can’t wait to see more!
