My very own alphabet book
Cut n paste fun!
ADDED March 13, 2009
Today we have a fun activity that you can do with your kids to get rid of those old magazines and catalogs. Work together to make an alphabet picture book. This is an activity you can do over a few days (or even weeks), but when you are done you will have a handmade book filled with pictures and letters that your child has chosen.
Get out some scissors, glue, a notebook of any size and those catalogs and magazines. This is a good opportunity to review the letters of the alphabet and when the review is done start thumbing through the magazines looking for photos of exciting things that start with the letters of the alphabet. Since A is at the beginning of the alphabet we started with A. We found a beautiful photo of some apples in Bon Appetite and some awesome close up Ants in National Geographic. When the A was completed we moved to B and found some pictures of blue sky, burritos and beluga whales.
We have only made it to the letter J so far but slowly are making our way through the alphabet. It is fun too when the new magazines arrive because the kids are always on the look out for old magazines that can be replaced. Of course when we are done with magazines its off to the recycling bin. Have Fun!
