Letter Craft: P is for Piano

Got this activity from No Time for Flashcards, my favorite site at the moment.  They got lots of wonder crafts and activities for your young ones!  Just to clear things out, I am not taking credits for this activity.  Again, I sourced this out from No Time for Flashcards.  The only reason why I document it the way they do is for me to be able to re-do this activity again in the future.

1.  You will need an orange paper, a white cardboard paper, black stickers, glue and scissors.  But feel free to use anything you like or whatever available resources you have.

2. Write a huge capital letter P on the orange paper.  I made Mavi do some scribbling on it before I cut out the gigantic letter.

3.  Apply some lines for the keys on the white strip of paper.  Make sure that the paper fits on the trunk of the letter P.  Since Mavi is not yet able to create straight lines, I did all the work.

4.  I made him put glue on the keys.  This activity also helps him to do some “squeezing” activity, another fine motor activity which needs to be develop by kiddos.

5.  I placed the keys along the letter P.  Before hand, I cut out some black keys.  Mavi doesn’t know how to cut papers yet, but hopefully with these activities we’re doing, he will be able to learn the proper way of doing it.  As it is said, scissor skill is hard for toddlers. Anyway, I made him put the black keys on the white keys.  I just directed him where to put it since he knows how to use the stickers already.

Well, hope you like our activity this week!
