Reinforce Learning with Letter W Activities:
- Create a master word list: Make a giant list of every word you and your child can think of that starts with the letter W, then go on a walk, wandering around looking for items from your list or new ones to write down.
- Wiggle and wobble: Get silly with your child and play some music and wiggle along to it. As you wiggle and wobble, take turns saying words that start with the letter W in rhythm with the music.
- Wade in the water: If it’s nice out and you’re near a river or lake, wade out into the water with your child. As you cool off in the water, watch for wildlife that might be roaming the shore.
