Here is a fun craft that we are going to do for our alphabet comprehension.
We did the letter A yesterday.
When we craft I try to reuse materials so that my out-of-pocket expenses are minimal.
James' grandpaw sent him a book in the mail the other day and
the cardboard that he packaged it in was perfect for this idea.
First I drew an A about 5" high on bright yellow cardstock and cut it out. I asked James if he thought the alligator should be eating the A and he said yes and got very excited.
Next I free handed an alligator shape on the cardboard.
I let James go to town on the alligator with a glue stick.
Next, he placed little triangles that I had cut out of scrapbook paper all over the alligator.
Then he glued on a googley eye, and pasted the A in the alligator's mouth.
A few final artistic flourishes,
and VOILA!
