As a homeschool mom to two children, I have grown to love simple learning activities. I take the Play-Based and Montessori-inspired learning approach with my children. All the activity ideas that you read below are interactive and simple!

The three main key points I focus on when creating activities for preschool at home are:

Easy for my 3-year-old to understand
The activity is engaging enough for my 3-year-old
Focuses on teaching the sound of the letter

I only focus on teaching “sit down” learning activities four days a week with short lessons. The activities take us anywhere from 20-30 min.

This blog post is all about Letter A Learning Activities.

Letter A Learning Activities

Every single day, we start by reading a short story about the letter Aa. Check out the books we used for the Letter Aa!

I introduced the lowercase and uppercase letter Aa by using our tracing cards.

Tracing Cards I have: Learning Without Tears Spanish A-B-C Touch & Flip Sensory Cards- Get Set for School Series.

If you are not a bilingual family but would like sand letter cards, here is an option: Educational Resources Upper and Lowercase Sandpapers Letters Boxed Set.

Using tracing letter cards helps your child gain early writing skills. I practiced guiding him with how the uppercase and lowercase letter Aa are written.

What starts with the letter Aa and shadow matching activity comes from the Montessori Inspired Letter Aa Activity Pack.
