Activities & Crafts:
Painting with the Letter "K"
Tear off several pieces of kale (vegetable) and show the children how
to paint the kale leaf and make "kale" prints on their paper.
Recognizing the Letter "K"
Introduce the letter "K" to the children by showing them the written
word "kangaroo" and helping them to see that it begins with a "K".
Cut a large kangaroo shape out of paper; add a pouch and tuck a cutout
of the letter "K" inside it.
Make Kites - for ideas see our Kite
Theme.
King for a Day - Make crowns and make all the children "Kings"
for a day.
Key Chain - Cut several large key shapes from cardboard.
Let the children cut things from old magazines or catalogues that begin
with the letter "K"; glueing them to the key shapes. Hang the keys
from a string from the ceiling, as if on a chain, and let the children,
one by one, identify an item on the key chain.
I am a "K" - Let the children practice their balance by being
the letter k. Show them how to make the letter "K" with their bodies;
with one arm and one leg pointing out.
Kitchen - Set up a kitchen center or let the children cut pictures
out of magazines or catalogues of items they would find in a kitchen; and
glue onto a large piece of poster paper.
