Our first letter of the week will be : A
I have put a large letter A on (our horribly ugly, I know) dining room floor, which also happens to be the kids play room(we eat in the kitchen!) with masking tape. The kids noticed it right away, and it is big enough that they can walk inside of it, as well as trace it with their fingers. We talk about it often, and although Sophia doesn't recognize the letter yet, I think that it is a fun way to expose her to one particular letter. And Roscoe makes sounds as he walks around it too! : )
I'm not really sure how I will end up formatting these ideas right now. Please bear with me as I figure this out! : )

Sounds fun! I miss pre-school with my Lulu (so grown up at 8 1/2!), but I'm going to gather ideas from your site for my little one.
Hey Ruth,
Have I told you that I think you are amazing and so creative and gifted and good at what you do? Well, I am telling you NOW! Thanks for the inspiration.
