TEACHING LETTERS TO PRESCHOOLERS THE FUN WAY!

THE FIRST STEP IS TO INTRODUCE THEM TO THE LETTER NAMES AND SOUNDS WITH OUR ALPHABET CARDS AND THE YOU ARE MY SUNSHINE ALPHABET SONG



You can learn our song from our YouTube channel for FREE here:

Want to get your own copy of our alphabet cards, and help prepare your child for kindergarten success this summer?  You can get your own set from either choice below:

SUNSHINE LEARN TO READ PROGRAM
The cards make it easy to practice the song, names, sounds, and to play many "name the sound/letter" games!

In our local preschool, we like to introduce the kids to one letter at a time, then practice the whole song for a while so they can take their time learning them with plenty of review.

As we introduce the letters, we like to do some letter "yoga" where the kids get to act out things that begin with each letter too.  Over the years, I've learned that kids are most successful with remembering the names and sounds when they move and sing :)

Once they know the names and sounds fairly well, then we play many fun review games until they REALLY know them!

WE SHARE MANY FUN GAMES KIDS LOVE WITH YOU IN EITHER PROGRAM ABOVE!

next, we help them transition to just the letters (without the pictures) with plain letter cards or OUR BIG ALPHABET FELT sheet and our You Are My Sunshine Letter sounds song

Here are videos for our letter sound review song:
(One with hand motions and one without)
​

HERE'S WHAT OUR BIG ALPHABET FELT SHEET LOOKS LIKE:

ALPHABET LETTER FELT SHEET
I just used a large piece of white felt and some puffy paints for ours to make it bright and colorful and kid-friendly.  You can use anything you like to make your own!
