ALPHABET WALK


Alphabet Walk
Tell the children that you are going to go on an alphabet walk and look for things that begin with letters of the alphabet.  Start with A and work your way through Z.  Take a sheet of paper and write down the objects as the children identify them.  For example:  A-acorn, B-bird, C-cloud, D-dirt, etc.

Singing Tree
Ask children to bring in old wind chimes and bells.  Tie them to the branches of a tree and listen to the tree “sing” when the wind blows.

Nature Bracelet
Put a piece of masking tape or packaging tape with the sticky side out on each child’s wrist to make a bracelet.  Children attach small leaves, flowers, etc. to the tape to make a nature bracelet.
Note!  Remind them to only take objects on the ground.
