My kids love learning all about things like our neighborhood and the world around us. Weston knows the names of almost all the planets and was explaining to Carrigan about Earth the other day. She was excited because in our books the Earth looks like a ball. But both of them enjoyed out E is for Earth letter of the week craft!
Letter of the Week Craft: E is for Earth
This is a great craft for Earth Day but it also works great any time of year because most kids love to learn about this world that we live in! Depending on how old your child is, they may need a bit more help with this one, but it’s also a great letter of the week craft to pair up older and younger kids.
Remember, it doesn’t have to be perfect! It’s about learning and having fun! Check out how to make your own E is for Earth letter of the week craft! Then check out some of our favorite books to read when we do this craft!
What You Need:
- White paper
- Blue and green markers
- Pencil
What You Do:
- With a pencil draw a box letter E on the white paper (you can also use a word processing program and print a large outline letter as well if you’re making for multiple kids)
- Starting with the green marker start drawing squiggly lines, then color then in. Do this all over the inside of the E. If you’re working with younger children, you can draw the outlines for them to color in.
- Then color in the open spaces in the E with the blue marker!
