Alphabet Under Construction: Building Activity

Because my son loves all things construction, the book Alphabet Under Construction is a favorite at our house.  He picks out his favorite letters when we read it (he especially likes O).  The Construction Alphabet Book is another good one.

We paired these books with constructing our own letter A.  I cut some styrofoam into strips using a serrated knife.  This is messy - I would recommend doing it outside.  Then we got out the play hammers and some golf tees.

I had lots of styrofoam so they were busy for a while.
