Activity #13: Pipe cleaner letters


My son made these letters on his own, with help for about 5 of them

Matching some animals to the letters (M for monkey, P for pig, S for sheep)

Words made out of our letters

Description: Use pipe cleaners to form letters of the alphabet.
Age: 4 or 5 and up
Purpose:
Letters
Problem solving
Spelling
Matching to letters
Prep time: minimal
What you’ll need: a package of pipe cleaners
Fun Factor: This turned out to be a great activity. We spent a long time forming letters with the pipe and they were pretty motivated by the activity. My younger child went around the house to find objects and animals and put them near the letter that they started with (maybe a future scavenger hunt idea). Then we made words out of the letters we formed.
