Letter A Crafts
Let’s explore some abc learning by creating a fun letter craft incorporating the letter a sound and what it looks like, while also working on fine motor skills like cutting, pasting, and coloring too.
Add these crafts to your letter of the week activities.
These activities are perfect for a wide group of ages including:
- Toddlers – who may need some help with cutting, but would enjoy the pasting. I suggest helping toddlers by cutting out the pieces in advance, and allowing them to paste the pieces together.
- Preschoolers – Preschoolers may still need some help with coloring, cutting, and pasting but should be able to do most of it on their own.
- Kindergarten students will be mostly independent and can follow an example. I always suggest creating a version of the craft yourself so your student can see what the end result looks like.
