Letter of the Week {Vv}

By Tiffany Rudd
Snack Ideas:
      * Veggies with Dip - I was honestly a little surprised the first time I set a bunch of cut up veggies in front of my preschoolers and they actually ate them! All you need is a variety of options and a little ranch dressing and I bet your preschooler will surprise you too.  

Favorite Books:
      * The Berenstain Bears Funny Valentine by Stan & Jan Berenstain

      * The Velveteen Rabbit by Margery Williams

Crafts:
      * Vegetable Prints - These are so fun! All you need are some veggies of different shapes and sizes and some paint. Have your child dip the veggie in the paint however she chooses and make fun shapes on a piece of paper. I also love this one from whipup.net where she used different veggies cut in half. 
      * Vegetable Collage - I love this idea from The Measured Mom. It is also a great one for practicing cutting and gluing skills.
      * Letter Vv Vase - How cute is this letter V vase craft over at Creativity Takes Flight

Activities:
      * DIY Volcano - This doesn't have to be a super involved project, I've even just used a plain vase, baking soda, vinegar, and red food coloring before since the fun part is watching it erupt! You can take it a step farther though, like this example from Learning 4 Kids. Your little ones are sure to love it!
