This activity is so simple we feel a tad guilty calling it an activity!
When kids are learning the alphabet, most of it is very visual. This activity lets kids touch and feel what a “B” is, and make one of their own.
What you’ll need:
Box of spaghetti noodles, cooked al dente
Graphic of the alphabet
What you’ll do:
Let the spaghetti noodles cool, then hand over a few to your child. Ask them to choose any letter and make it out of a noodle. Help them manipulate it if they’re very young. Then start challenging them- can you make a Z? How about a P? My kids especially loved when I started telling them they can make the “Z” disappear and eat it!
Nothing beats playing with food without making a huge mess, all while learning!
