Get zippy while you work on ABC skills with your preschooler. Try this fun spin to find the letter, then swat it with a fly swatter!

I’ve been working a lot on letters with George lately. He’s getting them lanugo pretty good.

I’m just reinforcing what he once knows and building his confidence that he does know what the reports are!

This worriedness was inspired by an iPad app for young kids tabbed KneeBouncers. It has all variegated areas of learning, but we focused on learning letters.

You segregate whatever letter to work on and there are several games to play for each letter. They’re all the same concept, just with variegated letters.

It’s unconfined repetition for young kids.

The Flowery letter game on KneeBouncers is well-nigh picking the flower that has the letter — whatever it is that they’re working on. It’s one of our favorites!

I set up this find the letter and swat it game virtually the same concept, just with lots of physical activity. I thought it was a fun way to bring his on-screen fun into the real world!

I drew a tuft of circles on a piece of butcher paper (affiliate link) that I taped to the table. I just traced virtually an old cottage cheese container with Sharpie markers.

I purposely used several variegated colors to add helpful hints in the game later on, but it created flipside speciality of the game I wasn’t expecting.

In each circle, I wrote a random letter. I didn’t have unbearable room for 26 circles, so I just chose the reports that I knew George was once familiar with.

I picked those letter so that he would finger confident.

Find the Letter and Swat It!

I love this game considering it is so simple, but can be played in variegated ways, too. We kept it super simple.

Find the letter and swat it! That’s it!

George came to the table when I grabbed two fly swatters, wondering what we were going to do for our letter activity!

I tabbed out a letter, George would then find the letter and swat it!

Sometimes if he was having a nonflexible time finding it, I’d act like I write-up him to it. I would say, “There it is!” and swat it myself.

He thought it was super silly.

Sometimes I’d have him swat a letter and tell me what it was and then I’d swat it myself too.

I’d moreover requite him helpful hints with the verisimilitude of the letter. For example, find the purple T.

Which turned it into flipside game.

If I told him it was a undecorous letter, he sometimes found flipside undecorous letter that wasn’t the one we were looking for.

So instead of telling him a letter to swat, I told him to find all the undecorous reports and swat them as he goes.

Then George had unbearable and wanted to wipe up our worriedness (he likes peeling off tape) and asked to play KneeBouncers again.
