5 Fun and Easy Activities for Teaching Preschoolers the Letter C


Coming up with interesting and engaging games, crafts and activities to teach preschoolers and young children about the letter C can be a daunting task, but fear not!  These 5 fun crafts and activities and easy, fun, and low prep, and adaptable for both a single child learning at home or a classroom.

From pretend cooking to crafts, I’ve got you covered with interactive and entertaining activities that will help your child develop their letter recognition and start on those pre-reading and pre-writing skills. Get ready to witness your preschooler’s creativity and imagination soar!

 

Cars and Construction Truck Letter Play

Letter C Construction Truck Play Letter C car PlayThis was a great activity to use while I was gathering a few supplies for the other letter C activities and honestly I think my son would have been content to play here for an hour, maybe more.  And since I already had a rice bin this activity took me about 30 seconds of prep.

Grab some colored paper, cut out some letter C’s, add some construction trucks or cars or your rice bin and let your child go to town getting the letter C’s covered up.  Here’s a link to our trucks on Amazon if you’re thinking about getting some.  Our see some serious use both in the rice bin, and in the garden in our backyard.

You can talk about the Construction that your child is doing and the different car’s they’re using, emphasising the different sounds that c’s can make if you want to take this activity up a notch.

C is for Cooking

Cupcakes with letter C's in chocolate chips for a preschool learning letter C activity A fun and easy activity for teaching preschoolers the letter C is Cooking. Cooking is a great way to engage children’s senses, develop their fine motor skills, and introduce them to new vocabulary. Plus, it’s a tasty way to learn!

Start by choosing a recipe that features the letter C, such as carrot muffins or cucumber sandwiches. As you gather the ingredients and utensils, talk to your child about each item and its initial sound. Encourage them to repeat the sound and you could even practice writing the letter C in flour or frosting.

Next, let your child help with the measuring, pouring, and mixing. This is a great opportunity to talk about concepts like fractions, volume, and texture. As you work, point out each ingredient or tool you use that starts with the letter C, such as holding a measuring cup and asking “What is this called?” and annunciating the “Cup” part of it or in a sing song voice saying “CCCup” a few times.

Finally, enjoy the fruits of your labor together! Take time to savor the flavors and discuss how the letter C relates to the taste and texture of the food. Maybe the tops of muffins are crunchy but soft in the center, or the sandwiches are cool and crisp. Encourage your child to describe these sensations using C words like crispy, crunchy, cool, and creamy.

Cooking is a versatile and engaging activity that can be adjusted to fit your child’s interests and abilities. By incorporating the letter C into the recipe and the conversation, you’ll be helping your child build important literacy skills while having fun in the kitchen.

Cat Clap Crawls (or Crab Clap Crawls for Older Children)

Letter C CutoutsAnother fun way to reinforce the letter C with your preschooler is through a game of “Cat Clap Crawls”. Start the game by having your child pretend to be a cat, crawling around on all fours (or a crab, crab walking). Encourage them to be playful and use their imagination. After a few minutes of cat crawling, put some cut out letter “C’s” on the floor and have them move between them, clapping each time they reach one. To add variation you can start with a simple clap and then adding more complex patterns as your child’s skills develop. Finally, return to cat crawling, emphasizing the “C” sound in the word cat.

“Cat Clap Crawls” is not only a great way to reinforce the letter C, but it also helps with gross motor and coordination skills. Plus, it’s a fun way to burn off some energy!

Moving on to the next activity, “Cotton Ball Clouds”, your child can continue to practice their fine motor skills while creating a cute and fluffy cotton ball cloud.

 

Cotton Ball Clouds

Letter C Cotton Ball Cloud ActivityYour child can continue to practice their fine motor skills with the “Cotton Ball Clouds”. This is a fun easy activity to bring the energy back down.  My son loved ripping apart the cotton balls and always is down for some glue play so this was a great, easy prep art activity.

Next up, have some fun with singing with songs like “Creeping Caterpillar”

Creeping Caterpillar Song

(to the tune of the itsy bitsy spider)

The creeping caterpillar inched along the plant,

Eating up the leaf as it sang this chant,

Soon I’ll have wings and be able to fly,

When I do I’ll drink nectar and live in the sky.

 

The creeping caterpillar could feel the time was soon,

So it moved to a high plant and spun a fine cocoon,

Time passed by and one day when the sun was high,
The creeping caterpillar emerged a butterfly.

Construct a Castle (out of Cardboard)

One last fun activity for exploring letting C, is a team castle building activity.

There are a lot of way this one can go, you can use building blocks, or cardboard boxes, or any other materials you might already have on hand.

Construct a Castle out of Cardboard

If you want a quicker and easier version, straight up building blocks are fantastic.  Build and knock down your castle as many times as you like.

If you’re working with slightly older kids, or want to boost this to craft level gather up some cardboard boxes and let your child/children paint, glue, cut out and decorate them.  Add windows and doors and make your own castle each, or add them together building block style for a castle city, with flags and turrets on top.

Or if you want to be wild and strong, gather up large cardboard boxes of various sizes and use them as life size building block to build a castle you can play in and go through. (This is what we ended up doing and the castle stayed up all day, and ended up being played with by my elementary age kids, preschooler and baby alike)

This activity can promote teamwork, problem-solving, and imagination, as your little ones work together to create their own unique castle masterpiece. As they build, encourage them to use words that start with the letter C, such as “castle”, “colors”, and “creativity”.

Once their castles are complete, take a moment to admire their work and ask them to describe what they have created. You can even use this opportunity to talk about the history of real-life castles, and how they were used in the past.

I hope these 5 fun and easy activities for teaching preschoolers the letter C are just what you needed to kickstart their learning journey and you’re able to have some fun along the way.
