Last summer we started our "letter of the day" study. It's taken us a while, but we finally got through the remaining letters of the alphabet so that I could assemble the collage pages into a book. Munch has gotten fairly proficient at writing her upper case letters, so I added some practice with lower case letters.
Letter S,s- We used rubber stamps and stapled on straws to decorate the collage page.

Today's craft was a directed drawing/painting of fruit using scented "paint"- I mixed Kool-Aid packets with just a tablespoon or so of water.

"Froot by V-"

Sniffing the finished painting before enjoying a snack of strawberries

Letter Q,q-Lunch was a quesadilla, of course! Collage page with quinoa and q-tips attached

Gluing squares of decorative paper onto a pattern of a bed

the finished bed and quilt with a kleenex-stuffed "pillow"

Letter K,k-For the letter K day, we headed out to fly a kite and Munch tried a new fruit-Kiwi!
Keys attached to the K,k page

Kids can't resist sorting and exploring with keys

Our kangaroo craft

and making "kisses" cookies for a treat




Letter X,x- Our cooking project was to make pretzel x's using an illustrated recipe Munch brought home from preschool.





I had a tough time finding something for our collage page, but finally settled on using plastic tile spacers-

Munch has been interested in sewing lately, so we found a cute beginner's cross-stitch kit-

Wow! You are so creative. I host a feature on my blog called the Ultimate Alphabet Craft Collection. Would you be interested in linking up your alphabet craft ideas? I think they are fantastic! And I am sure many people would gain a lot of inspiration from them. You can view the master list here: http://theattachedmama.blogspot.com/2010/07/ultimate-alphabet-craft-collection.html
