We did this craft early January when wanted to do some “tot school” activities.  Got this from Totally Tots website.  They put up this wonderful letter craft ideas for Mom’s to use for this kids.  Just click on the link above so you will be directed to the site where the step by step instructions are provided.

In our case, after making the letter A outline, I made Mavi color the letter using his Do-a-Dot markers and Crayola’s Pip Squeaks.  Much to my surprise, he enjoyed using both!  Sometimes, he switch the use of each markers such as he would make dots using the pip squeaks and draw lines using the do-a-dot markers.

Then the glue-activity comes in.  I have to say that when it comes to gluing, I don’t have to teach him and guide him that much as he expertly knows how to do it already.  There are times that I just have to tell him where to add more glue or that if he puts too much glue on a certain area.

He effortlessly place the googly eyes on the letter A.  I was happy that he can control his fingers holding tiny objects so well and perfectly placing those cute googly eyes on a small area.

I hope you get to enjoy this craft as much as we did!

Prijatno!
