Do you teach a preschooler? Then you know how much work it can be to round up preschool alphabet activities that are hands-on and meaningful for teaching letters and their sounds. That’s one of the reasons I created Learning the Alphabet for my daughter.
Teaching the alphabet to preschoolers is truly a labor of love, especially if you throw in snacks, crafts, read aloud books, and hands-on play that all revolve around one particular letter. I’m exhausted just thinking about it all!
And to top it all off, if you’ve taught more than one preschooler, you know they are not all the same. The favorite alphabet activity one child enjoys will not always be a favorite of another. And there goes last year’s lessons…

But, I have such great news and I’m totally excited to finally share with you! My “blogging buddy”, The Measured Mom has compiled a HUGE go-to resource of Preschool Alphabet Activities. We’re talking almost 200 pages of day by day ideas to engage your preschooler with letters and their sounds. Woohoo!
Preschool Alphabet Activities in ONE Resource!
With this one book, you will literally have all you need to teach your preschooler the alphabet. Anna has included preschool alphabet activities that feature
- crafts,
- process art,
- fine motor skills,
- the whole alphabet {which is very important if you’re following a letter of the week kind of curriculum},
- math,
- read alouds,
- sensory play,
- snacks, and
- gross motor play!
Each activity is clearly marked with a label so you will know what kinds of activities they are. She really has thought of it all!
Adapting Alphabet Activities for Your Preschooler
The ABC’s of Preschool is NOT a prescribed curriculum, but rather a huge resource of activities that you can adapt for your preschooler. If your child/student likes to draw or color, there are activities for that. If you have an active preschooler, there are activities for that as well, clearly labeled so you will know which ones to choose.
All kids learn differently and at different paces. And believe me when I say you will have PLENTY of activities to choose from if it takes your child longer than five days to grasp a certain letter. The appendix is chalk full of extra activities and resources for you, too! WOW!
So, if you’re teaching the alphabet to a preschooler {at home or in a preschool classroom setting}, you will want to get your hands on this book! To read even more about The ABC’s of Preschool and see some sample pages, visit The Measured Mom.
