Last week we started learning the alphabet and are hoping to accomplish one letter a week. We did "A" things in honor of our letter. Phi loves to cut with his scissors so we took a grocery add and first found A things.( Leroy helped with the coloring)
"Apples" and "Avocados"
Then since his scissors were still antsy we cut small bits of different colors from the paper and made an "A" shape. Then he took over the glue part and Mommy the scissors and we found as many letter "A"s as we could through out the adds and came up with this page.

He then got to try writing some and did pretty good other than wanting to make them look like H instead of A.
And got some library books to find some more pictures with "A" words. One about Animals from Africa and another of Animals in general.
"Armadillo"
"Armadillo"
And also took a walk by the airport so we could watch the airplanes. And see some "A" s on signs and such.
We also included "Apple Cranberry Scones" for breakfast one morning and sang "A" songs out of the Let's Sing About Jesus hymn book each morning.
They say learning should be fun so we're trying to keep it that way.

What a fun idea! Love it! :-)
You'll have to have some alphabet soup! (to celebrate the "A" as well as the whole alphabet)...or perhaps you've already done that. :)
Then again, maybe soup's not so appetizing to your little guys, though...:)
Wowzy-wow wowzers you are so organized with all that awesome "a" stuff! I'd like to see what you come up with for some of the other letters! Definitely post about each letter as you learn about it, this was a fun post!
Alphabet Soup? We'll have to try that one!
