Day 3: Alphabet Introduction

We mixed the order up a little today so I could prepare for the activity.  It worked out really well.

Movie:
    Barney - Now I Know My ABC's
    (from Netflix streaming)

Read:
    Dr. Seuss's ABC / Beginner Books
    (from our bookshelf)

Sing: Standard Alphabet Song - He got it perfectly.

Activity:  Alphabet Scavenger Hunt - I cut 2" squares of paper and wrote a different letter of the alphabet on each square.  Then, I placed them around the kitchen next to items that began with that letter.  My little guy searched for all the letters.  When he found one he named the letter and I told him the name of the object.  To check if he had all the cards he put them in order on the kitchen table.  He really liked this activity.

Read:
    Click, Clack, Quackity-Quack: An Alphabetical Adventure
    (from our bookshelf)

Coloring Sheet:  Calvin Alphabet (this one is for my hubby, he loves Calvin and Hobbes)

Cost:  A few pennies for paper and ink.
