My son is obsessed with letters. While I was perusing party ideas on pintrest. I found
this great idea.
I already had
another activity in mind in which I needed the outline of letters, so I cut them out quick.
 |
| Too high mommie! |
I taped the letters around the yard while my Hubby was still home, so Hunter would be completely surprised.
I even made a piece of paper with the lower case letters on it for Hunter to cross them off as he found the letters. Hunter tossed the cumbersome clipboard aside and chased those wild letters down!
I thought it was absolutely hilarious how excited he would get each time he found a letter.
He would trace the letter with his finger and shout the name.
I had to chase him around while dragging Lorelei along. He was all top speed afraid that the letters might escape him if he moved too slowly.
He begged to continue the game. Since it was already 100 we went around rounded up those rowdy letters and hid them again inside.

| RRRRR |
He would go close his eyes in his room while I laid them around the house and he would come running out with glee looking for the letters.

| Tracing each letter with his finger |
It so totally rocks when your kids appreciate something you do! Not all projects and ideas lead to positive results. Course my children are pretty amazing, so it is worth every minute of it. (Course easy to say as they are both napping as I write this. hehe)

I have a feeling we are going to play this game many more times! I am going to use it for a party as well. Course for the party it will be all pretty and all that awesomeness. |

Remember don't throw away the surrounding paper of the letters. I have a
fun game to use them with!
 |
| Gee should we continue inside |
