In a few months my nieces and nephew will be entering into Kindergarten. I can’t believe how big they are getting. I wanted to create a craft they could do to review their letters/sounds before their first day of school.
What You’ll Need:
Two Paper plates
Round stickers
Blue and brown construction paper
Green paint
Paint brush
Pen
Hot glue gun
How To:
- Cut out the center part of the paper plates and save the edge.
- Cut the edges of the paper plates into 6 pieces. You will have left over.
- Paint the edges of the paper plate green. These will be the leaves. Set aside to dry.
- Cut a strip of brown construction paper. Fold it several times, flipping it back and fourth, and glue the top and bottom part to the blue construction paper.
- Cut out three round circles out of the brown construction paper. They will be the coconuts.
- An adult can now use a hot glue to attach the leaves to the blue paper. Arrange them as seen above.
- Glue the coconuts to the center of the leaves.
- Write every letter of the alphabet onto your round stickers and have your child place them on the leaves while saying their name and sound.
I really hope my nieces and nephew enjoy this activity. Can’t wait to see what they make!
