He has known his abc's for some time now. I didn't realize he only recognized them as upper case and hadn't learned lower case. It was as if Little Learning Lovies read my mind! I had just started looking for something to help teach this when they came out with their latest product - Big Pack of Alphabet Boxables!
What is it?
Boxables are printable game that forms a folder and can be self contained. Little Learning Lovies has lots of them!
Big Pack of Alphabet Boxables is a set of 26 (one for each letter) file games that fit in a box (printable box included).
How did we use it?
First thing I did was print out the pieces for the box and build it. I have to say it is ADORABLE! I love that itwas included with the set.
Next thing I did was print the games A-D and E-H. *MAKE SURE YOU PRINT DOUBLE SIDED*
The box took about 15 minutes to build and it was about 30 minutes for me to build the games.
Next is the fun part! I let my little guy pick the letters he was interested in. We talked about how the letters came in two sizes and then I showed him the Uppercase and Lowercase sides of the board. Then I had him sort them.
What is really neat is the cards are two sided so you could use this game a few different ways. The second side has pictures that start with the letter. So adding a phonic part to the game would be neat too!
I plan on using the letters later on as a giant game by taking two lower and two upper and mixing them up then having Jace sort them as well - once he is familiar with each letter.
My Thoughts:
I think this set is adorable! I love that it fit the need we had in our homeschool and was something I could easily put together and use. All I needed was ink, cardstock (which we always have on hand), scissors and glue.
Jace had a fun time working on his letters. He happily played with two letters during his school time. The bright colors and cute graphics drew him in. In fact I had a hard time keeping him away while I was building the box and games.
If you have a preschooler you will want to sign up for Little Learning Lovies' 30 Days of Preschool Fun! Sandra has created activities for each letter of the alphabet! It is a great way to sample what LLL has to offer!
