Letter of the Week- Letter I
Feb
This week we are focusing on the letter I. For our art project we made an Ice Cream Cone I- an idea I found at No Time for Flashcards.
Here’s what you’ll need: a few pieces of construction paper, a large I, crayons and glue.
I drew some diamonds on the I to make it look like the cone and then Hailey colored it.
Cut out the ice cream.
Color the ice cream.
Glue everything together.

Letter of the Week- Letter H
Jan
Our letter this week is the letter H- which is Hailey’s favorite letter. When I told her we were doing the letter H she said, “That’s for Hailey. ‘H’ is in my name!”
Here is our art project for the letter H this week, which I once again found at No Time for Flashcards.
Here’s what you’ll need: the letter H on construction paper, another piece of construction paper to glue your finished H on, some glue and some hearts.
Glue the hearts onto the letter H.

Letter of the Week- Letter G
Jan
Hailey is finally healthy enough to do some activities so we are finally back! Hopefully we’ll be back to stay this time- no more getting sick.
I am going to be doing things a little bit differently though. In the past I was trying to do way too many things with Hailey in one week. We did a letter project almost every day as well as a project relating to our theme, a number, shape and color activity, a Bible story activity, and more. It was getting to be too much for me to plan and get everything together. So, we will be doing less art activities than we were doing before.
So, getting back into our letter each week- this week is the letter G. I got this idea from No Time for Flashcards (I get almost all of my letter of the week activities from Allie- she has such cute ideas and Hailey always loves them).
Here’s what we made:
You’ll need: green paper with the letter G on it, gold (yellow) paper, glittery paint, and something to paint with.
Hailey loved painting the G. I told her that we used Green paper because green starts with G and that we used Glitter paint because that starts with G.

Letter of the Week- Letter F
Nov
Last week our letter was F. Here are the activities we did for the letter F.
Hailey used a paint roller to paint the letter F. Later I cut it out and glued it onto construction paper and posted it on our refrigerator. Each week she does one of these for our letter of the week and we always use something different to decorate the letters (colored pencils, markers, water colors, finger paints, etc.)
Then Hailey got check out some feathers. She had never touched feathers before so she was pretty interested in them.
Then we glued the feathers onto the letter F.
Our finished Feather F.
Then we made a fish- we used triangles to make the fish since our shape was the triangle.
Hailey added some glue to the triangles.
The finished triangle fish.
Stop by 1+1+1=1 to see what the other moms did last week to keep their tots busy. Don’t forget to stop back to see what else we did last week- we did some more fall activities, some activities for our number (4), color (orange) and shape (triangle) as well some activities while learning about Noah.
