Wooden Letters Kit

Move on from boring spelling pages.

Like I have mentioned over and over again…the best way to learn is through play.

This is one of my go-to activities with a group of kindergarten children. I find that a great way to get them engaged, is to have them search for a stick with their name on it. Children love to see their name!

Using wooden sticks, I wrote simple words with a permanent marker. Paint would work as well.

Wooden letters were purchased at Dollarama. These educational kits do not have to cost a fortune. This activity cost under $6.00 to create. There are enough pieces included for a group of 8 children.

I love the simplicity and natural feel of these products, rather than using the typical plastic letters.

A small basket, container or box can keep your kit tidy.

Hi! My name is Natalie and I’m an ECE. Yes I know...What is an ECE? I am an Early Childhood Educator. This means that I teach and care for children. With over twenty years of experience, I specialize in programming for school age children. My philosophy is centred in the belief that children learn best when they are having fun, and feel free to explore. I’ve always had a passion for teaching. It allows me to share my interests such as music, cooking and gardening. In return, caring for children has provided me the opportunity to continuously learn, and to become a better human. I am incredibly excited to share these ideas with you? Enjoy.
