What do you get when you mix red and yellow fingerpaint? Big orange pumpkins and some messy fun! Talk about the sound the letter P makes and practice the Alphabetology hand movement that goes with P: "P,p, pop!"
1. Cut a pumpkin shape out of a large piece of white construction paper.
2. Help your child put on a smock or old T-shirt.
3. Place a dot each of washable red and yellow paint on the paper.
4. Let your child enjoy and explore the mixing colors and fun texture!
There are so many fun letter activities for P! Pop popcorn, eat pizza, go on a picnic, decorate with pine cones, make pumpkin pie. Okay...those are mostly food ideas. Wear pink and purple while you play with play dough. Remember that the hand movement is the secret weapon to learning the letter sound. Practice often!
