Hi everyone! Today I wanted to do another Teeny Tot Tuesday post for you. Today’s post is brought to you by the Letter Q! And so we’ll be having fun with quilts. Quilt Lacing Card: Above you can see our lacing practice card. I make sure to laminate this one for durability, then punch with a hole punch every inch or so for lacing practice. Teach them patterns to do with this as well, like up from the bottom each time, or in-out-in-out sewing. Whatever pattern you can think of. Letter Q Memory Verse: “Quench not the Spirit.” 1 Thessalonians 5:19 Song time: Hide ‘Em in Your Heart Vol 1 Hide ‘Em In Your Heart Songs – Vol 2 Read Chicka Chicka Boom Boom and put up the letter V on our Alphabet Tree! You can download my small alphabet letters here. (This is an older picture of Tinker Bell adding the letter, I love how she was Queen for the day!)   Color Cubes: I use our Large Alphabet Lacing Cards to serve as templates for our 1″ building blocks. We … [Read more...]

Welcome to our Letter O preschool activities! We are having fun with Octopus activities this week, and I hope you enjoy them. So let’s get started shall we? Octopus Coloring Page: We color this, paint it, or use markers. I found some that fit my 3 year old well, they’re called Pip-Squeaks Washable Markers. They’re shorter and easier for her to use. These pictured are chubby markers, they also make a skinny version. I got mine at Wal-mart. Letter O Memory Verse: O give thanks unto the Lord; for He is good. Psalm 118:1 For our verses and accompanying games/stories we use the following books: ABC Memory Verses & My ABC Bible Verses Letter Oo Do-A-Dot Page: We use Do-a-Dot Art Markers with this!     Octopus cut and paste page: I have the Teeny Tot cut out the items on this printable and then glue them to a colorful piece of construction paper.   Octopus Cutting Practice: Simply print and let your child try cutting along the lines!   Octopus … [Read more...]

Hi everyone! I just realized that I haven’t done a Teeny Tot Tuesday post in awhile, so I thought I’d better get in gear over here! So today we’re going to watch the Teeny Tot tackle the Letter K. Our topic is K for Kite, and you’ll also see a few other random activities that she picked out that might not match with our letter, but no harm no foul. So let’s get to it… Welcome to the Letter K for Kite preschool alphabet activities! Letter K Memory Verse: “Keep your tongue from evil and your lips from speaking lies.” Psalm 34:13 For our verses and accompanying games/stories we use the following books: ABC Memory Verses & My ABC Bible Verses Daily Learning Notebook: We always start off our day with our Daily Learning Notebook.

Hi everyone! I know it’s been awhile since I’ve done a Teeny Tot Tuesday post, so I wanted to put up one to show you what she’s been working on lately! This week she is on the letter M and so we are using my Letter M for M&M Letter of the Week curriculum. (I also have Letter M for Monkey if you don’t want to do the whole chocolate thing.) Letter M Memory Verse: “My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me.” John 10-27 Play a game of “follow the Shepherd”, blind fold your kids and have them follow your voice! Read Chicka Chicka Boom Boom and put up the letter M on our Alphabet Tree!

Daily Learning Notebook and M&M Lacing Card   She’s using this with a colored shoestring. The plastic tips help her to guide the lace through the holes. She’s doing a pattern going in … [Read more...]

Good morning! This post is brought to you by the Teeny Tot and the Letter J. We’re continuing on with our Preschool Daily Learning Notebook and I’m very pleased with her ability to trace, she’s showing excellent fine-motor skills which will make next year that much easier for her! I wrote in the number of the day and the word “five” for her to trace over as well. Then she found the five in the number circles on her own.   Since it’s December, I always like to do the Letter J for Jesus! Just seems like a nice timely way to introduce the letter! Here she is using large Letter J’s that I cut out from construction paper and laminated. She used 1” wooden color cubes to make patterns on the letter shapes. Tip: I printed my letter collage worksheets on colored construction paper, they can be found in the Letter of the Week curriculum. Letter Collage Worksheets: The download includes letters A-Z as well as a collage idea sheet. We use the collage items as … [Read more...]
