We're all at home (or most of us, anyway!), so let's keep things light and as fun as possible for our children. Let's play Neighborhood I-SPY! No one has to even come close to one another for this game. Simply share the flier and tally sheet, and pass around on your Facebook groups, your neighborhood listserves, you name it. Then choose a date, and start putting the items in windows and on doors. Then let families walk or drive around to hunt for the items!I like to use some fun hands on learning activities to teach my kids some of the basics and this alphabet activity does just that! Let’s go on an Alphabet Hunt right here in our backyard for things that begin with each letter. #teachmama #alphabet #earlylearning #toddler #preschooler #toddleractivities #abc's #earlylearning #literacyUse stamps for early literacy learning and spelling. It's a great, fun way to teach kids how to spell! With stamps and ink pads, it makes spelling a fun activity for kids to do but also an educational game at the same time! I like using this idea for a rainy day or a snow day when we need to find something to do indoors! #alphabet #earlyliteracy #spelling #teachinghelps #stamps #learning #education #funideasforkids #teachingtips
