5 ABC Activities for Your Pre-Preschooler {@ Or So She Says}

It's so strange for me to have all my boys in some form of school away from home this year.  Well, at least for about 6 more weeks.  Then I'll have a tiny one at home with me, but he won't be in need of any alphabet practice just yet.

I thought before I put some of our favorite ABC learning activities away for awhile, it would be fun to share them with you.  I know kids as young as 2 can start preschool these days, but we've only ever done one year with our boys.  The former teacher in me loves doing simple activities as home to prepare them for the schooling they'll receive, and I promise your kids will LOVE these! 

I'm over at Or So She Says today with 5 simple alphabet activities you can do with your  pre-preschooler at home.  I used some of these when I taught, and some are ones I've discovered as a mom.  So, come and visit me for all 5 activities, supplies, and how-to (click here for my entire post).

Thanks so much for stopping by!  I hope you found a little something worth your time.

DIY ABC Tree

I have several addictions, or as I like to call them, collections.  ABC/alphabet items seem to top my list.  Once again, I blame it on the teacher in me, but I have a really hard time passing up anything alphabet-related. 

I've decided it's a really good thing we're having another little one, because my twins will be 8 in a few months, and they really don't need any ABC decorations, and my almost-five-year-old really has out-grown all this stuff as well.  So, thank goodness for baby boy number 4!  I can keep my collections around for a bit longer.

I posted this project early on in my blogging career, and it's still one of my very favorite projects!  I found a picture of something similar to this in blogland, and wanted to recreate it.  I was worried about how mine would turn out, but I LOVED it!  Just looking at it now, I still love it!  In fact, it makes me want to make a newer version with a new color scheme.
