Pin Recipe
Ingredients
Rice
we used dyed rice for extra fun
Container large enough to draw letters in
A small Tupperware container or shallow box
Paintbrush or other pretend writing tools
using your hands works well too
Printable alphabet cards
Instructions
Pour a thin layer of rice into your container. If you pour too much rice, your child won’t be able to form letters in the rice.
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.
