Ready, Set, Letters Grab & Go Kit: Letter guess game!

About this event

Stop at our Leonard Branch and ask for this special Grab & Go Craft kit : Letter guess Game! It is designed to encourage the development of early learning practices and to develop letter knowledge needed for children to become a strong readers. An inexpensive beach ball and a permanent marker are all you need to make this fun learning game. Inflate the beach ball and use the marker to print uppercase or lowercase letters all over the ball. Underline each letter so there is no confusion between “M” and “W” or “p” and “d.” Toss the ball and have the person who catches the ball say the letter name closest to or under one hand. If the child knows the letter names, make the game trickier by asking for the letter sound or a word that begins with the letter. Ready, Set, Letters! booklet available at Brooklyn Public Libraries has many simple and fun activities to build our children language knowledge and love of reading.
