Day 11 Reading & Writing: Choose a letter you want to base your meal on (maybe use the first letter in your child’s name). Talk with your child about the sound that letter makes and brainstorm some foods or ingredients that begin with that letter. Prepare a meal or snack together with some of the letter ingredients, talking about the letter sounds you hear in each food. For instance, you could make a salami sandwich with string beans on the side and strawberries for dessert! Together, create a menu and have your child write the letter and draw pictures of the foods you made. While you’re eating, tell a silly story with as many words starting with your chosen letter as possible! Or talk about how letters are a part of everything we do… and everything we eat! Think of other foods you could have included if you were to have a letter feast. During your next meal, challenge your child to identify the letter their food begins with! (Materials needed: healthy ingredients that’s begin with a specific letter (ex. Lettuce, lentils, and Lima beans), crayons and paper.

Day 15 Reading & Writing: I Spy With a Rhyme: Talk to your child about rhymes and explain that two words rhyme when they end in the same sound such as “cat” and “bat.” Try this new rhyming twist on the classic I Spy game with your child! Choose an object in the room for your child to find (for example, a block). Then think of a word that rhymes with your chosen object and include it in the spy clue. For instance, “I spy something that rhymes with sock.” Your child then needs to find something in the room that rhymes with your clue. After your child guesses the object correctly, try and think of as many words as possible that rhyme with it!

Day 16 Reading & Writing: Doggie Detective Materials: • 3 to 6 toy puppies – cut out your own from construction paper or use stuffed animals. • Construction paper • Marker • Scissors Directions: Cut out 5 to 10 to “dog bones” from construction paper. Write one lowercase letter on each bone: s, r, c, t, b, etc. Then, hide the toy puppies on, in, under, or near things in the home that start with the above letters. For example: s = sink, sofa, stairs; r=refrigerator, rug; c=couch, chair, computer; t=table, TV, toaster; b=bed, bathtub, etc. Lay all of the dog bone cards face down on the table. Have your child flip over one bone at a time and identify the letter. Tell your child to go find a puppy on, in, under, or near something that starts with that letter. Let them ask you for clues, such as “Is it in the kitchen?” or “Is it something I can sit on?” Give the bone to the found puppy! Switch and let your child hide the puppies — and lead you to them using clues. Letter Hopscotch- If weather permits Materials: Sidewalk chalk Choose a large area on a sidewalk or driveway to create the hopscotch grid. Create a nine by nine grid of squares. Write a letter in each square with chalk. As your child hops from square to square, ask them to say the corresponding letter and make its sound. For example: “M. M says mmmmm.” For older kids, you can add extra squares. See if they spell short words while they hop, such as C-A-T or P-A-T Math: Watch “Our Favorite Numbers” https://youtu.be/V_lgJgBbqWE Review numbers and counting together. Use materials found around your house and practice counting together. Develop their understanding of number sense by handling objects and counting them.
