ABC & 123 Sticker Puzzles

I found these small packs of foam letter and number stickers at the Target dollar spot. I used them to make a quick puzzle for B to practice putting numbers and letters in order.

The first few times he worked on matching up the numbers and letters, he just set each one on top of the cardboard strip. Later on to add some "excitement", I had him actually stick them on.

  7. I love love love Target's $bins (that is when we have them, they did away with them for the summer and early fall last year). Anyhow, we got those stickers too and have used abc stickers for activities like that too. My daughter loves stuff like that! :)

    I recently "found" your blog and love all the super ideas you post on here!

  8. What a wonderful idea! I just picked some of these stickers up @ the $1.00 section of Target yesterday! Great way to use them to teach my jumping bean his ABC's in a few months. I love your blog - what a blessing it is to our family! You definitely have a gift!

  11. Hi, I am also one who just discovered your blog and it looks like you have some great activity ideas here. Thank you. I have some similar foam letter stickers, so we may find some time to do these soon. The only thing we have done with them so far, is I let the girls stick them on to paper randomly, then we think of a word for each letter and I write it down using the letter as the first letter of the word.

  12. I just bought some of those same stickers. Don't you just love the Target dollar spot? Thanks for the idea. I think my kids will love it.

    By the way, I just noticed that I won the melissa and dough cookie set. Our computer has been broken for the last week (we just had to pay a small fortune to buy a new charger for it) so if you sent me an email I didn't get it. Is it too late for me to still claim my prize (I never win anything!)? =) Thanks.

  13. I did this with my kids last week and they both loved it! I was surprised at how well my 2-year-old was able to match up the numbers and letters by herself. I guess I need to step it up. Thanks again for the great idea!
