ACTIVITY 2 - FIND IT
(continued)
How Can You Help?
• Watch your child play this activity. You will be able to determine which
letters, numbers, words, or shapes your child is successful in identifying.
It will also give a good indication of which letters, numbers, words or
shapes your child is having difficulty identifying. Be sure to make note of
those and continue to have your child work on them. Remember to be
positive and praise the good work that your child has done!
• Write some letters of the alphabet, numbers (1-10), words, or shapes down
on paper and encourage your child to find the matching letter, number,
word or shape on the learning toy.
• Create a list with your child of words that begin with each of the letters
of the alphabet. You may want to create a booklet for your child with
these words. Devote a page to each letter of the alphabet.
ACTIVITY 3 - ALPHABET & NUMBER ORDER
This activity strengthens alphabetical and numerical order skills. Your child
will recognize that the letters of the alphabet and numbers are arranged
in a certain order. He or she will have opportunities to tell which letter
comes before or after certain letters as well as which number comes be-
fore or after certain numbers. Your child will be asked specific questions
such as, “Which letter comes before the letter B?” He or she will then have
the opportunity to look at the learning toy and find that letter.
