Letter H

Man was our H week a busy one!  The entire fridge was full of crafts and activities by Friday!  Below are the links from our week.  Please take a minute to visit these other wonderful preschool sites!  

Click here for our H weekly schedule to get an idea of how we fit it all in!







Make a hippo. I cut this one our for my little guy but then showed him the finished hippo so he could figure out the steps to glue the hippo together himself.  (Like all things that will not be reused, I choose to print this in grayscale to save my colored ink)



Hand print horses.  (This activity did require craft sticks and yarn if you have that handy)





Flash cards 







We made hats out of sandwich bags and decorated them with stickers and markers.  


Building a house with nails!  I thought this activity would have a lot of prep work but it maybe took me 5 minutes to get everything cut out and together for my two.  You will need a hole punch for this activity.  They had so much fun with this it was great fine motor practice putting the nails into the hole and good shape review too!












(I had him place his "house" that he created beside him so he could remember the shapes he used to make a house)


We galloped like horses during our dance time







Worked with our helicopter beside us!


H is for hand print! 




We worked on H on Starfall 


Read a book about Horses


H with detergent in a bag.  


We worked on our hand puzzle 


Hard Hats anyone??

During our "H" week, I couldn't resist bringing out some hammers!  (Of course the morning of, I couldn't find the kids plastic toy hammers anywhere so we went with the real thing here people!)  

Using some of dad's golf tees, Big Bro hammered the letter H into a large piece of stifoam that I had saved in the garage.  (Make sure your piece is thick enough so the golf tees don't stick out the bottom when you are done hammering. If it isn't, do this activity outside on the grass) 



Sweet pea did the same thing with her piece using a toy drill.  


After we started this, Big Bro said, "Mom, I need my Home Depot apron and hard hat too!"  



This activity is a wonderful fine motor activity that kept my two busy several times during our "H" week!
