Hi there, Mama! Do you have a preschooler working on phonics and letter recognition? This is the sort of skill that benefits from being presented in a wide variety of ways, involving different senses and experiences. “Alphabet Eggs” provide a fun way to experience the alphabet and it’s sounds. This big set, that even includes printable baskets, This printable!!
Start by learning letter shapes. “Big D and Little D” or “Upper case D and Lower case D”, whichever you prefer to use. Add in phonics by saying ” /d/, /d/, D!” which stands for… (Go ahead and ‘crack’ the egg open!) ” /d/, /d/, Dog!”
It won’t take much time at all for your children to master these sounds. They’ll love playing with these eggs so much that they’ll never even notice they’re learning!
Older children can practice putting these in alphabetical order! My 6 year old helped me do that with this set. She was delighted! And she’s ready to help her little brother work on all of these sounds, while she, sneakily, will reinforce some concepts she needs to be an excellent reader. 🙂 Win-Win!!
Alphabet Eggs is so much learning fun for kids who are about 2 1/2 up through 6 or 7 years old! There’s so much to learn with these that when you make them, you’ll find that, though you may put them away for a while, you’ll pull them back out again and again.
These eggs “crack” open to reveal a sweet picture and it’s accompanying word!
Kids will learn:
These are so easy to put together and so full of learning potential that you’ll be using them over and over. I sincerely hope you love them! (And they’re great for ANY TIME… not just Easter!)
This printable is JUST the thing to start or end your week with a TON of learning fun, Mama! You’ll use this set over and over. We tend to put ours away for a couple of weeks, only to bring it back out again to enjoy for a week or more at a time. (I totally should have laminated it! lol)
