We’ve got a big variety of letter M activities for preschool!

(Update: I published this post years ago when my children were young. Now that I have more time, I’ve created a done-for-you alphabet curriculum perfect for preschool!)
Letter M Activities

I love to start off with my little letter books of rhymes and songs. These free books have six rhymes and songs for every letter of the alphabet! The Letter M book was a fun one because it had so many familiar nursery rhymes. We love to sing them.

My Three isn’t ready to do handwriting pages, so we do a lot of fine motor activities that don’t involve a pencil. What a fun one this turned out to be! I pulled out the toothpicks and mini marshmallows, and we both started creating (with just a few marshmallows permitted for a snack!).

When his older brother (almost five) saw what we were up to, he had to join in. His bridge ended up being as long as the table! (We ran out of toothpicks.)

While I think process art is important, we do crafts once in a while too. This is such a fun one! It’s based off the M is for Mouse craft I did for Crystal and Company. You can get a free pattern there.

For a name activity, I wrote his name on white cardstock using a white crayon. Then he painted over it using watercolors… and there was his name! Like magic. 🙂

He asked me to do other letters, too, so this worked great as a whole alphabet activity. He named the letters as they appeared.

He created this monster out of play dough after I made the giant ball for him (still working on those fine motor skills!).
See you next week!
