ABC Activity Using Dot Makers

It's official.  My daughter knows letters T, S, N, A....and well, that's about all the official ones for now but we are making definitely progress!  I still love the dot makers that we used a few weeks ago to make our amazing tye-dye coffee filters, so I decided to use these to work on letters.  I simply made the letters with circles first, sort of like I did for the Rock Letters, and then I just gave her the dot makers.   As you can see, she thought this was a super fun and stuck with this activity for quite awhile.


Even Little Buddy had fun with the dot makers, although he didn't exactly make the letters (he's 2 and a half), but he still enjoyed it and claimed that each letter was an "S!!!!"




If you enjoyed this post, you will really enjoy reading my newly-released book!  I teamed up with Susan Case who is a former Kindergarten teacher and a passionate advocate for learning through play, and we wrote the book together to give a Mom and a Teacher point of view.  You can watch a video that explains more here:

We give you dozens of other ideas on how to keep your kids busy, but in a productive way, so they are actually learning while they are also having fun!  Here is what one of my readers wrote on Amazon after she read our book: This book seriously saved my sanity. I've read a bunch of parenting books but this is literally the only one that actually gave me real and specific advice and ideas for things to do with my daughter. I'm a stay-at-home mom to a 2-year old and I was at my wits end trying to come up with ideas of fun, easy, creative things to do with her that will keep her busy and occupied and help her learn. I wasn't very good at following through on ideas that I heard about from friends or read in other books or online because they seemed too complicated (aka: messy!) but this book broke it down and made it so simple. I highly recommend it!
