Spelling Names

I got this idea from several posts months ago, 

and here is our version of spelling the names of family members

with milk bottle caps.

I put stickers on old milk lids.

Made cards with photos of people along with their name. 

A circle is traced around a lid for each letter and the letter written on the card then laminated.

Big Seed just has to match them up.

He loves this because it has such meaning to him.

I made a bag from alphabet print fabric to keep everything tidy.

Sunday Newspaper Letters

We sometimes get newspapers at the weekend with their endless supplements...

Why? I only get to read a paragraph!

So I thought I would put them to more use...

Simple: I cut 3 large letters out of black card,

then cut out the same 3 letters out of the newspaper,

mixed them on a plate and asked Big Seed to sort and stick them down.

I have done this before by typing letters in different colours,

then again in different fonts on the computer and printing them off.

He is so chuffed he can read some letters ( although he calls them numbers).
