Lower case and upper case Fall matching activity

Find it and color it



Hide numbers in a tray full of pom poms, beans, beads or any other cool thing your kids might have fun with. Let them play and as they find a number, they need to color it on a numbers sheet (or cover it with a pom pom).

Home made count and color book




ABC stripes

A new letter every day and a new ABC stripe every day. Ask the child to cut out the right pictures and color them. When you have enough stripes, ask the child to lay them on the floor and put them in the right order.

Exercise ABC cards


My own version of Chasing Cheerios' idea...

DIY ABC Dice and more




Homemade dice are so much fun and versatile!


Great for toddlers:roll the colors or shapes die and find the matching color/shape.
Great tool for reinforcing letter recognition: roll the upper case ABC die and ask the child to find the corresponding lower case letter.
Great as writing practice: roll any of the home made dice you have and ask the child to write down what comes up and see who comes out more often. Who will win first prize?
Also great for coins recognition and sorting.
Also good for numbers: roll the numbers die and ask the child to pick the corresponding amount of figurines, pawns, or any other item and write down the number.
