Alphabet Puppets: Songs, Stories, and Cooking Activities for Letter Recognition and Sounds

It's all fun and games with Alphabet Puppets. My three year old & I have taken on a new letter every two weeks and are really having fun at it. During the week while she's playing around the house, she sings the songs from the book to herself. And she's learning letter names and sounds! We love it!

I first saw this book in the library about 10 years ago and then decided to buy it after I had my 4th daughter. It is an economical program to use to teach your child their alphabet. You can make the puppets out of material or use paper lunch sacks which is what I use. One of the games for the letter C is a variation of "Mother, May I?" in which Ms. Coudron makes it "Captain, May I?" My four-year-old likes the cooking activities the best. For the letter C we make carrot curls and hot cocoa. Very simple inexpensive cooking recipes. For B we made butter which my daughter thought was lots of fun. This book is great if you only have time for 1 or 2 letters per week.
