My kids have had no problem transitioning to writing and spelling their names properly after using capital alphabet letters sometimes as 3 year olds, but for some kids the transition is harder. You could create your own stickers by writing alphabet letters on circle dot stickers if you want to adapt this activity. It is better for kids to practice learning their names with a capital letter for the first letter and then lowercase letters for the rest of their name. It is hard to find cheap lowercase letter stickers, so I rarely have them around. Note: In this activity I used alphabet stickers that are in all capital letters. You can barely see it, but I made her take a photo anyway. I guess I got a little distracted helping the other kids and didn't notice her markering up her lips. My favorite photo of the day was after preschool ended and I noticed my daughter's lips were covered with pink marker. This was a great visual discrimination activity and they only needed a little help.Īfter everything was glued on we let the cute coconut tree pictures dry. Then I wrote each child's name on their tree trunks with a pencil and then the kids matched the alphabet sticker letters to the written letters on the tree trunk. To create, the kids assembled their coconut trees using white glue and all of the pre-cut pieces (older kids could cut their own paper). Materials Needed: alphabet stickers, thin cardboard (cut into strips to be trunks), green cardstock (cut into branches), white glue, yellow cardstock (cut into circles), pen, white paper I think focusing on the letters in their names is a great first place to start when introducing the alphabet. I love name activities because kids are genuinely interested in their own names and therefore usually love creating with them. This week we made an easy Chicka Chicka Boom Boom Name Sticker craft and practiced identifying and matching the letters in our name. Over the years we have done a few Chicka Chicka Boom Boom themed activities and last week I put a new spin on an older Chicka Chicka Boom Boom name craft I did with my son when he was two (he is now six). Mine like to read it again and again and have it memorized now. The silly story and fun rhyming words keep kids engaged. If you haven't read Chicka Chicka Boom Boom, add it to your list. Each week we select a different book to feature and this week I chose Bill Martin Jr.'s classic book Chicka Chicka Boom Boom. I help host a children's book themed preschool co-op.
