super letter of the day


One thing my kids love to do is to pick a letter each day for us to talk about.  It is an easy, fun way to reinforce the alphabet.

Materials:
Recycled container ( I used an old coffee container)
Letters (You can make your own or buy pre-made...Dollar Tree often has them)

Directions:
Pick a letter each day.  I let both of my kids each pick one.  I then let them tape them to the wall.  We then sing the coordinating song from our alphabet chart and cd.  

I love our chart and cd but you could easily do this without it.  Try listing words that start with the letter or practice "writing" the letter with play-dough,  sand,  etc.
