Letter P & Pig Sponge Painting Invest in some Alphabet and misc. sponges for crafts like this. They are about $2 or $3 per bag at Walmart. Also available from school supply stores. We use ours to make a page like this for every letter we are learning from September through May. Parents are encouraged to take them home and post them where the child can see and practice every day. When we finish the entire alphabet they can make them into a book or put them into a binder. Group Time Activity Picnic Plates Ask children to brainstorm all the foods they can think of that begin with the letter p, while you list them on the board: Pudding, peas, pumpkin, pizza, pickles, prunes, pasta, potato, pie, pop, popcorn, peanuts, pickled pig's feet, pecans, pears, plums, peaches, peppers. Give children paper plates, safety scissors, glue, crayons, drawing paper and old magazines. Invite them to cut out or draw pictures of p foods to glue to their plates. P is for Pop! Make popcorn. Call your child into an area where they can hear the corn pop. Each time he hears a pop your child should hop like corn popping and say "pop". I like to do this when there are several children around. It is really fun to watch several children popping all around the room. You may want to write the word pop on a piece of cardstock and have the children hold their pop sign high in the air each time they say the word "pop".
