Trucking Kids - Alphabet Book

Princess has been working matching letter sounds with the correct letter.  To help her do this we have been making an alphabet book together (a project I can remember doing when I was in preschool!).  It is such a simple project.

Materials Needed
1" 3 ring binder
26 Page Protectors (one for each letter)
26 pieces of white paper
old magazines/fliers/newspapers to cut pictures out of
Black Marker
Black Pen



Write the capital and lowercase letter of each letter on one of the pages (example "Aa" would be one page).  Let the child cut out pictures that start with that letter (with supervision of course).  In some cases Princess did best if I drew a large circle around the picture she was cutting out and she cut out the circle.  Glue the pictures onto the letter page.  Write each word underneath the picture.  Put in a page protector and put into the binder.  Continue this until you finish all the letters in the alphabet.  Periodically as we work on this (it is not a one day project), we go through and Princess points to the letter and tells me what it is.  Then she points to each of the pictures and says what they are.  She loves to "read" it to Buddy too, which is great because it increases his vocabulary as well.
