Toddler Letters – “Q” is for “Quail”

Posted on August 22, 2016 by Brittney

Supplies Needed:

Colored Craft Paper
Letter “Q” Cutout
Elmer’s Glue
Scissors
Googly Eyes
Orange Pipe Cleaner
Colored Feathers
Markers

Set Up:

We started by trimming down some of our feathers so that they would be short enough to fit on our letter “Q”. Then we added a layer of glue to our “Q” and added our feathers to it making sure that all of the letter was covered. I cut the orange pipe cleaner into 3 inch sections and then made 5 tiny bends in the middle of each one before twisting the two ends together to form the quail feet. Then I cut a small part off of another pipe cleaner and bent it into a “V” for the beak. We finished by gluing on our quail feet, beak and two googly eyes.

Toddler Letters – “P” is for “Pom Pom”

Posted on August 8, 2016 by Brittney

Supplies Needed:

Colored Craft Paper
Letter “P” Cutout
Elmer’s Glue
Scissors
Colored Pom Poms
Markers

Set Up:

We stared by adding glue to our letter “P”. I let my son add his own glue and he was very careful to trace his P, then he grabbed handfuls of Pom Poms to cover his glue. Since we were running out of Pom Poms by the time was son was done I ended up being a little more conservative and just doing dots of glue where I wanted Pom Poms added. If you want to control or limit the amount of Pom Poms being used I would suggest going the glue dot route and letting your child add one Pom Pom per glue dot. We let our glue dry then shook our P a little to dislodge any loose Pom Poms before gluing our P down to our craft paper.

We finished by talking about different things that are circle. (Balls, cups, clocks, apples, pizza, wheels, etc.)

Toddler Letters – “O” is for “Open”

Posted on July 25, 2016 by Brittney

Supplies Needed:

2 Pieces of Colored Craft Paper
Letter “O” Cutout
Glue Stick
Scissors
Markers

Set Up:

We started with a cut out letter “O” then I showed my son how to trace the inside of the “O” on another craft paper. I cut out the inner “O” leaving a tab on the left side then my son helped me glue the tab to the “O” creating a door. Then we glued the “O” to our craft paper being careful not to glue our door closed in the process. When we were finished we colored inside our door so that we could open it and see our drawing or close it and hide them.

We finished by talking about why some things have doors. Our fridge has a door to keep the cold air in so that our food stays good, our oven has a door so that we can cook food in it without making the whole house hot, our cupboards have doors to hide things in so we don’t have to see them, etc.

Toddler Letters – “N” is for “Noodle”

Posted on July 11, 2016 by Brittney

Supplies Needed:

Colored Craft Paper
Letter “N” Cutout
Elmer’s Glue
Noodles (one variety or many)
Markers

Set Up:

We started by covering our “N” with a thin layer of glue, I let my son help with the glue. Then we added a bunch of noodles to it. I attempted a pattern while my son was more than happy to just take handfuls of pasta and drop them across his “N” letting them land where they may. We let our “N” dry then gently turned them over to dislodge any loose noodles before gluing our “N” to our full sized craft paper.

When we finished we talked about what some of our favorite foods were.

Fruits and Vegetables that

Supplies Needed:

Colored Craft Paper

Goggly Eyes
Pipe Cleaners

Set Up:

I cut out our “M” ahead of time, then we sat down at the craft table and covered our M’s in a small layer of glue. Then we went wild gluing whatever we wanted to our letter. When my son was finished layering craft supplies on his M I did another small layer of glue to make sure everything would stay down, then we let them dry before gluing them to our full sheet of paper.
