Alphabet Hunt

So our first days of summer were spent inside, away from the warmth and sun, sick as a dog. We finally start to feel like ourselves again and California does what it likes to do in the early days of summer~ June Gloom. Hello fog and chilly air. Goodbye summer beach days. Needless to say, I've been trying to cook up some indoor activities for the kids to do. This one was met with great success!

I wrote every letter of the alphabet onto squares of paper. If you have magnetic letters that would work great too. Lay them out where you have some room for your collections. Let your kids roam the house hunting for items that begin with each letter!

This is a great activity for kindergartners learning beginning sounds of words.

For older children, it's great to practice ending sounds of words or just to enjoy the thrill of a hunt!

TA-DA!

Wasn't so sure how the kids would get Q and X. I knew we didn't have a xylophone, but unbelievably, we actually had an x-ray!
