Chicka Chicka Boom Boom Puzzle
This is a fun activity to leave on the shelf for your little one to play and encourage your child to match the letters in the coconut tree! This is also a great activity to occupy your little one on a car ride or while waiting for dinner when dining out. Not only does it work on phonemic awareness, but it also encourages focus, steady hand-eye coordination, and building fine motor muscles.
Materials
- Large cardboard and smaller pieces (scale to your own size)
- Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple permanent markers
- Velcro dots
How To
- Trace a coconut tree.
- Cut out 26 pieces of cardboard.
- Write the alphabet in lowercase letters on each piece of cardboard (alternate colors!)
- Lay the pieces with letters out on the board. When you have them in the space, adhere each side with Velcro.
- Remove all of the letters and write the lower case letters just below the Velcro on the cardboard.
