Each week we have a special "letter of the week".  During the week, we make crafts that feature the letter of the week and practice the upper and lower cases of the letter. 

WHAT WE DO - ACTIVITIES:  During the week we're learning about a particular letter (in this case the Letter B), we'll often do an activity celebrating that letter.  Some ideas for the letter B are going to a Baseball or Basketball game, riding Bikes or going to a Ballet (in our family, Daddy does sports and Mommy does culture *grin*)

WHAT WE DO - BODY:  We picked our Backs as the body part for B week.  We did simple exercises stretching our backs and then Mommy and Daddy gave the girls a Back rub.

WHAT WE DO - CRAFTS:  Try making a Bean picture.  Get a package of mixed dried beans (about $2 at your grocery store).  The mixed packages come in lots of different colours.  Young kids will get lots of practice with fine motor skills picking out beans.  Before making your picture, you can have the kids sort the beans into their various colours (my youngest daughter LOVES sorting things).  Then take a simple colouring book picture (try the Butterfly picture or our Letter B-b template.  Have the kids glue the beans to the picture to "colour" it in.  Make sure you craft for about 5 or 10 minutes and then practice letters for a bit... it keeps the kids interested in both activities!

WHAT WE DO - FOOD:  Bananas are a Beautiful *wink* food to use during B week.  For those amazing cooks out there, make Banana Bread with your kids.  They love smushing up the bananas and stirring everything together (even more than eating the finished product, in my household).  Or, for those busy B weeks, take a short cut and make peanut Butter sandwiches (with Bread of course) and slice Bananas on top.  If you make the slices small (cut the circular slices into 1/3 or 1/2), the kids can make designs or faces.  If you leave them in circles, they run out of room too quick.
