Instructions

- Print out the alphabet cards and cut each page in half.
- Have your child form letters in the rice using the alphabet cards as a guide.
- You can mix the activity up by placing the cards underneath the rice and trying to trace the letters this way.
- If you are using a clear container you can put the letter underneath where they can still see its form.
Notes
Tips: You can change the activity up by drawing faces or shapes into the rice or using other tools to form the letters like a spoon or straw.
