March 4th

  The first week in March is “Celebrate your Name Week”.

Let’s celebrate our children’s names.

Materials

Construction Paper

Marker

Various small items from inside or outside the house (Cotton Balls…sandpaper, dirt, salt, flour, rice, macaroni, glitter- anything you can glue down to paper- if you want to be very cute…find items that start with each letter of your child’s name -  For example, if your child is Sam, find salt, acorns and macaroni)

Glue

What to do:

Write an outline for your Child’s name in Big, Fat letters (Big enough to glue items inside the outline of each letter)

Talk about each letter in your Child’s name.  Then help your child choose items to glue down into each letter (either let your child pick what they want to put on each letter or use items that begin with the same letter and talk about the letter sounds) 

When you are done head over to the Name Game on this site and help your child explore and celebrate the letter in their name!
